just brought my 18 month old son home from a 2 day hospital stay after he had difficulty breathing the other night. apparently he got some severe respiratory virus and 3 other kids in the unit had the same thing. now we got the nebulizer treatments and oral steroids. kid is raging like crazy. super hyper and smashing into stuff.

anyone with kids watch out for common cold symptoms that develop into chest congestion and breathing problems. don't hesitate to take them into the pcp's office.

Good to hear he is home safe. Best luck on him getting better quickly. I can't imagine how crazy I'll be when I'm have an infant and they get sick.

Was it RSV? That is nasty and seems to spread quick.
