[QUOTE="amcardon, post: 3188960, member: 26766"] Christmas day ended up bringing our 2 month old to OU Children's with respiratory distress and fatigue. ER waiting room was full, almost to standing room only. They triaged him and O2 sat was at 72% so they brought us back immediately, while plenty of people made comments loud enough for us to hear about how they've been waiting for hours and they should get to go back first. Had to bite my tongue. Admitted a couple hours later, moved to step down unit shortly after since he was still declining, then moved to PICU where they could have him sedated and on a ventilator. That was Wednesday morning and we're still in PICU and likely will be for a couple more days. RSV, bronchiolitis, bronchial hypertension, and pneumonia. I'm grateful for nurses and doctors and ventilators, but this whole deal seriously sucks. I'm not good at not being in control of things and not at least having some options of how I can fix it. I know I'm just complaining/venting and should be grateful that with 6 kids this is our first stint in NICU/PICU, and I really am glad about that, just wish he didn't have to go through this.
