Seth went to the hospital on Friday (September 16th) afternoon. I took him in to E.R. at about 2:30 because he was having trouble with his breathing. They checked his oxygen level and it was at 84% right when we got there and I have given him three or four breathing treatments prior to the hospital visit. So they gave him three more breathing treatments and a dose of prednisolone (a steroid) and checked his oxygen level again and it was only at 89%... It's supposed to be up to 96%. So they kept him! They just put him on oxygen to help boost it up, but he ended up staying over-night at the hospital and the doctor said it was a good thing he was there because he got worse through the night. His oxygen level dropped to 88% WITH the oxygen. He was still on oxygen on Saturday and was keeping his level steady between 95 and 98%, but they kept him over-night again on Saturday. His oxygen got turned off Sunday morning FINALLY and he maintained an oxygen level between 95 and 97% on his own. When they sent him home Sunday night, they just sent him home with a prescription of the prednisolone and said to continue with the breathing treatments for the next couple of days because he was still a little wheezy.
Here are a few pictures from the hospital:
