Just in time for Christmas

Mitch has really had a rough go of it lately, colds, croup, allergies and just plain old hasn't felt like himself. After watching him suffer with allergies in the winter we decided to have him allergy tested. Today was the big day and we spent a good three hours for the whole process to be completed. Long story short, the diagnosis came back asthma and environmental allergies. The asthma was a complete surprise but not a total shock after all the breathing and couching fits he's had in the last month and the allergies are on the mild but not severe side. It was a relief to finally get some answers and I can actually tell he is breathing better today after a nebulizer treatment. Tonight we had to get used to administering his inhaler and meds which was new but if will just take some getting used to. I just pray for him and hope that God led us to the right doctor and the treatment we sought for him will be the one that will bring him some relief because little boys need to breath and play!
