Rylin in the Hospital with RSV

Rylin again with RSV, here is her last day in the hospital-as you can tell she is much happier and more playful than ever. Thank heavens she only had to spend a few days in the hospital.









Here she is with her oxygen mask thingy on and her I.V. on her left arm. She normally sucks her left thumb so when the nurse put the I.V. on her left hand she was frustrated with the wrapping on it.










This photograph is right before we got the okay that her oxygen levels were high and stable enough to be off the oxygen tube machine. She is so cute and playful, we are so glad that she is feeling better.


















Rylin really didn't understand what mommy was doing and thought it was time to play.









Lindsay had to pull the tape off of her skin, she wasn't too happy when that happened- but she was glad to be breathing on her own and not have tubes up her nose.










Daddy looks stoned here, we wre so tired by this time that our bodies were there but not our complete minds. We are just glad that Rylin is doing better and that all is well.

Rylin's RSV that she had went from bad to worse within a few days of seeing her pediatric Doctor. Rylin was admitted into the Hospital on Thursday January 31st and was in the hospital until Saturday February 2nd. It was a horrific day for Lindsay. Rylin had to have an I.V. put in her hand so that she would get fluids, Lindsay was hysterical and Rylin took it better than Lindsay did. Rylin was very brave and patient for the nurses and Ryun and Lindsay- it was hard to see our little angel sit there and go through so much, but we knew that it would only help her get through the sickness. We had an amazing Respitory Therapist at Madison Memorial Hospital here in Rexburg Idaho, he went through details that no doctor has ever done before- we felt like he cared about Rylin on a special level that not even our own pediatric doctor has. She is still on Albuterol breathing treatments but she is on the last leg of RSV and is doing very well, here are some photographs of our little family in the Hospital.











This is Rylin's Crib that she napped in while mom and dad needed a break from holding her!













This is Rylin finally asleep from a long night of not sleeping at all, poor little girl is exhausted.













She doesn't feel good at all, it broke our hearts to see her like this!













Her Crib again just from another angle















Ryun and Lindsay just hanging out while Rylin gets some sleep.
