This was one rough week. We found out that Ashton has RSV. RSV is a lower respiratory virus that creates mucus in your lungs. It's a common cold to most of us but dangerous for such a little guy. He could suffocate from all the mucus he can't blow out. So we were in and out of the hospitals outpatient clinic 2 times a day to get his nose and throat suctioned out. It was really hard to watch. Jonathan had to hold him down while the therapist stuck a tube down his nose to get all the mucus out. All the while Ashton is screaming at the top of his lungs and there was nothing I could do to help him. He had to have it done or he couldn't breathe.
Before they start to do anything to him he's really friendly and cute with the therapists.
My sad little guy!
