We had to restart Jack's Pulmicourt (and inhaled steroid) and his Xoponex (a bronchodialator) today. We haven't had to do a neb in almost 6 months so Jack in not used to them anymore. Jack has had a cough for weeks now and as of yesterday it is accompanied by a wheeze. The doctor wanted us to restart nebs and also do a round of Prednisone (and oral steroid). Jack protested quite loudly this morning when I turned on the neb. So, as any good mother would do, I turned on his favorite tv station, Noggin. I at least got him to tolerate the medicine blowing in his face. Tonight, as Philip was trying to give the treatment, I caught some pictures of him. His favorite, Moose, was on and he was quite mesmerized!

I hope it all gets a bit easier as time goes on.

Sorry that cough is hanging around. Trying to keep Jack still for the neb treatment must be quite the adventure. I can't wait until Luke is that active, although I don't know how I will keep up.
I hope the medicine works and Jack feel better soon!
Take care!
