Wheezing's return

Turtle had a doctor's appointment today - the coughing and wheezing are back. Dr. ABC said that she felt like it was another cold and because of his early bout with the RSV virus he'll have to endure these symptoms with every cold for up to 12 months. Not the best news. And to top that off she wants us to go to a children's hospital in Atlanta to have a test for Cystic Fibrosis. I don't think she believes that is the problem, but wants to rule it out for sure. Even so, it's not easy hearing your son's name in the same sentence with any disease. So on April 14th we'll head to Egleston for the test. Please pray for our family.

Last night was pretty rough - no one slept well. Turtle has been running a slight fever since I picked him up at the nursery yesterday. We'll keep using Tylenol and trying to keep him cool until it's gone.
