I don't know what to do. It's started again. Now it's over sharing toys... His teacher said she's going to work on sharing in the class. I hope that helps. Tomorrow we are going to visit Kristy. We'll have to practice while we are there and see how things go. I haven't experienced a biting episode. I usually tell him to share and he cooperates. I'm not saying the teacher is wrong. I definitely believe her. I just don't really know what to do when he hasn't done it in front of me.
We've definitely got to get him talking more. I think that would definitely help.

My poor sick child
Monday Tad didn't seem himself when I picked him up from school. He was running fever and starting to cough. Tuesday he went to school I told them he slept a LOT the previous night and that he was still coughing. No fever. I get a call at 3:15 that he was running fever and very upset because he wanted to sleep. Burnell picks him up and he was wheezing a LOT. So we start the breathing treatments, more medicine for fever and he sleeps a LOT again. Yesterday I stay home with him. I made a doctor's appointment and we ran to work to get some things for me to do at home.
A few people said he looks fine. Then I start to doubt whether I need to bring him to the doctor. I decide to bring him anyway since I took off and he was home. Well, the doctor listens to his chest and also takes his blood pulse ox. Well... it was really low and his lungs were tight and rattling... The doctor made me give him a breathing treatment in the office because he wasn't worried. Said he could have pneumonia due to the fever and lung thingy...
It's only the beginning of fall, winter, etc... Now he's on a round of steroids, breathing treatments and then preventive breathing treatments daily until this season is over. He's just going to LOVE that... He is hoping the daily preventative will help.
He's not diagnosing asthma because of his age. He's hoping he'll outgrow. I guess if we make it through next summer and next fall he starts again, then he'll send us to a specialist. Who knows... my poor child...
Tonight I laid in my bed with him, we watched cartoons and he feel asleep to the breathing treatment. Then off to his crib he went. Guess that will be out new nightly routine. I think we'll also read books once he gets use to the machine. He LOVES to read short books.
This story should prove to always trust your "mother's instinct."
