Emma's visit at BC Children's Hospital.
Luckily we have more happy shots of our stay than the unhappy ones. Emma had an oxygen mask for the first half of her stay but then after her not getting enough oxygen they had to put an oxygen nasal tube on her... Woah, I don't think I have or hopefully will ever hear her scream and cry that loud! Poor thing... It was administered at 3:00 am the evening before last. I had to keep her swaddled so she wouldn't rip it off. She cried herself to sleep in my arms. Brutal!
The next day a child care coordinator came by and asked what Emma's favourite thing was to play with... Water of course! And they made it happen! Shortly after they admitted us up into paediatrics. The room was large, with a crib and single bed, a beautiful view and not only a sink for Emma to play with water but our very own bathroom. Children's Hospital is amazing, the doctors, nurses, interns and staff all deserve medals. They're true heros.
Notes: Food wasn't half bad... Emma loved the beef and macaroni, mini carrot muffins and her new favourite... rice crispies with milk! She also learned 2 new words... "STUCK" and "NO" funny enough?! Wonder why... LOL!

They took us into Emergency immediately. Now the process begins of how to keep a 16 month old busy...
Emma is like new other than a snotty nose and a raspy cough. Children should be between 92-98 (resting/sleeping) and 95-98+ (healthy, active and awake). Emma was fluctuating between 85 to 89 three days ago and struggling with her breathing. She has a cold/virus and her little lungs just had a hard time fighting it off. Many parents know it as Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV). Ryan had this as well when he was little.
