Sammy boy goes to hospital again...

They day started off as normal, Daisy was at playgroup and Sam and I popped into town to do some errands and pick up some bits that we needed. Sam wasn't his usual self but I thought that may be down to him not having his morning nap. We picked Daisy up and came home, when Sam would not go down for a nap again I thought something was up, but he was quite happy playing. I decided to have a quick shower which ended up with both Daisy and Sam joining me, which they both loved.

Sam was due to have his MMR jab this afternoon but when we got to the doctors his breathing was heavy and he had developed a really bad cough (within half an hour) anyway the doctor said that he was not well enough for his jab and sent us to the children's hospital as they were concerned about his breathing. Here we go again! We got to the hospital, once again they were fantastic and really looked after us, they checked him out and wanted to keep him in for a few hours (5hrs altogether). Thankfully his breathing improved and his oxygen levels are all good so we are back home - on the condition that we see the specialist tomorrow afternoon. They think there is no long term problem or damage to his lungs but unfortunately he seems to have a really low immune to these viruses that cause the breathing difficulties.
