Nice Weather

The boy's enjoyed the nice weather today playing outside with their water table
Had to bring his car seat inside to clean it and he wanted to try it after it was done

Trying to get a good picture of the boy's together for Aunt Tia but they were not cooperating
Well most of you know by now that after two trips to the doctors last week Kaden has pneumonia again. We did find out that he has an Iga deficiency immune disorder which is why he keeps getting so sick. Unfortunately there is no cure for it and nothing you can do to protect him from getting so sick all the time. We did get good news today that they will be taking his tonsils and adenoids out in July. He is looking forward to playing more T-ball and our upcoming trip to Tulsa.

Kaden's Hospital Stay

This was still in the ER hours after waiting and just got the iv in for the second time, first one the vein blew right after getting it in
Settled in the room early the next morning

sleeping and clutching the reward he picked for getting another blood draw done


not feeling too good



wants to go home but is still too sick




Before we got discharged Kaden finally trying to have a little fun


As most people know by now Kaden was in the hospital for three days with Pneumonia and what everyone thought was the flu but turned out to be some nasty bug with flu symptoms. He started not feeling well Saturday and by Sunday morning was awful and just crying in pain so i took him into the ER only to be sent home after 3 hours. After we got home he continued to get worse and by Monday could not even sit up or walk as he was in so much pain and very sick. So i called and they had me bring him back in and after the first doc was just going to send us home again his supervisor came in and after taking one look at Kaden knew things were not right. She ordered all the appropriate tests and xrays and said he was not leaving he needed to be admitted. As she put it he is one very sick little boy. His heart rate was high and his pulse rate was high as was his white count which ended up being even higher the next day and his temp was 103.8. He was started on iv fluids as he was not able to eat or drink and keep it down, two iv antibiotics and tamiflu. We were put in a room on 6 Henson and he was under partial isolation which meant he could not go to the play room or anything and people could only come in if they wore a mask. He also was on a liquid/clear diet only, which he complained about after a day but then once he was cleared to eat he didn't want it after he ordered it anyways. We were discharged Wednesday afternoon and he is doing better now still not feeling 100% but better and went back to school like he wanted. He was really upset as Monday there was a field trip and since he was so sick he had to miss it. He told me that some of the kids at school were actually making fun of him because he missed it which i thought was horrible. Hopefully he is on the mend and we wont have to go through that again.

Kaden's School Injury






This would be the result of a little boy in Kaden's class deciding that he would shove Kaden into one of those big wooden railroad ties on the playground. Luckily he didn't get hurt any worse than this cause it could have been really bad!
