I changed his bedding, put vicks on his feet and chest and probably fed him close to two litres of warm soup, hot chocolate, and honey and water. He got a good sleep last night, thank goodness - my appointment is in a little while. I'm going to speak to him about putting him on the preventer. I'm so sick of all these drugs for this little boy, I'm too afraid to think of what sort of impact it will have on his health down the track.

I don't have a nebuliser but I'm going to speak to the doctor about that - I'll be going to Singapore (its a full day stopover) and then to Turkey in two weeks, so I'm more than a little concerned about asthma, swine flu and humidity.
