Coughed quite a bit starting last night. No temperature but had X-ray done for cautionary measure. Since we did an X-ray at the time of admission Thursday night and it was clear, we caught it pretty early. Zosyn will be started soon. Treatment will continue as scheduled.
Side effects started but better than expected. Moody and upset stomach. Throwing up is daily routine now. Lucas is very resistant in medication. Hard to get it down and hard to keep it down as when he cries hard, he throws up.
It's also hard to get him to eat anything other than white rice and pasta.
But he is such a sweet little boy that it's a complete joy looking after him.
Not sure how to comfort you, dear. Will continue to pray for you!
ReplyDeleteMy heart is there with your family! Big big bless to Lucas!
ReplyDeleteAngelina can hardly eat anything either at that time. Things will get better. Hang in there. We will always be here for you. -- Kelly
ReplyDeleteTake care of yourself at the same time, Crystal. I have been thinking about you guys all day. My heart is with you.
ReplyDelete骨头汤加肉丝青菜煮点乌冬面,我记得小宝有次在我们家很爱吃,我给你做点?
ReplyDeleteWe could try. But no rush, whenever it's convenient for you. Thanks!
Delete一直在挂念你们, 坚强的可爱的Lucas一定会好起来的!
ReplyDeleteThanks. Who is this? :)
Delete我明天给LUCAS寄一些台湾产的五谷粉,你们试着给他冲着喝。如果他爱吃,一定告诉我。
ReplyDelete给你们带了些白咖啡,还有给Alex的一些goodies。
晓仪,几个我照顾我们家小同学的有用tips:
ReplyDelete1. 口服退烧药让小孩吐的话,建议去walgreens或者wal-mart买一种叫做FeverALL的Rectal退烧药。告诉pharmacist你要找children's rectal fever reducer就可以了。那个是赛在小孩PP里的。效果很好而且在小孩容易呕吐和睡觉的时候特别适合。记得那个药分年龄段,0-36个月,3岁到6岁。
2.Local grocery stores卖pasta的地方有特别细小的给小朋友吃的意大利面,做成各种形状,比如小星星或者ABC字母。把芹菜胡萝卜切成同样细小的形状,一起放在鸡汤或者肉汤里煮软了给他吃。给他Youtube小星星的动画或者书,这样鼓励他把小星星吃到肚肚里去。
3.Pedialyte在超市有那种Freezer tubes。放在冰柜里拿出来就是小的冰棍。可以补充水分和电解质。因为直接喝那个味道有点怪,而且容易吐。
4.问一下医生是不是建议给Pediasure。如果小宝不爱喝,我寄个blender过去,每天混合水果给他做shake?
容我再想想。有新idea我回头贴上来。
谢谢!我们有vita mix blender,你可以分享一些recipe吗?很好的建议!
Delete看小宝喜欢什么水果了。买新鲜的和超市冰柜里的都可以。然后直接打就好了。如果喜欢巧克力就加一些syrup。
ReplyDelete我们家两个小朋友都不吃shake,所以我最近欣喜地发现Pediasure出了新产品叫做Pediasure Clear.盒装的果汁。每盒120cal,里面有各种维生素和微量元素。也是很好的营养来源。Target的幼儿食品(奶粉)那格有。
雀巢的康乃馨系列也很好。买粉状的那种,有三种口味,草莓,巧克力和香草.混合在牛奶里。这个的好处是没有直接买的Pediasure那么thick。
