There. I said it.Hate is a word that is not allowed in our house, but I hate croup. My 11 ds has suffered through it for YEARS. We have had him evaluated, and he was borderline for surgery, so we elected not to have it, hoping he would grow out of it. That was 3 years ago. He was up all night with it. Now, he is at the age that he knows exactly what to do, and doesn't even wake me anymore...but he gets so run down from the lack of sleep. Not to mention that now Delaney will get it .It sure doesn't help that it is a Sunday, and I will have to jump through hoops to get meds for him.

I'm not saying forget what you lost
I suppose there's a purpose in pain
What we make of ourselves has a cost
And it's paid every time we take hold of the reins

Trish, I giggled at your response!He would rather die than drink tea. He gags if he smells anything he doesn't like...really gags.He was a sickly baby, and had his tonsils and adenoids removed just after his third birthday. He is a horribly picky eater, from always being sick.

(((Hugs))) for you and Evan! We had a similar problem with Justin and strep. Since he got rid of the tonsils he has been healthy every since. Why is it kids only seem to get sick on the weekend when you can't get them any relief?Laura

Awww, how sad.....You know that my DS (13) just got it this year, too. Not fun!

I feel for you. My younger DD has struggled with it since she was an infant (she'll be twelve on the fifth of Feb). Anytime she catches something that's what it turns into. She even gets it in the summer as allergic croup instead of the usual viral kind. It sucks!!!! It's better now than when she was little, I guess. At least now we don't have the nebulizer anymore or trips to the ER in the dead of night.Hope you get some meds and he is on the mend soon!!!!Take care!
