My second but was susceptible to the croupe. He had it late one evening and I took him to the Children's Hospital for a four-hour wait. He was given Decadron, and the physician informed me that I had to stay up with him and not let him sleep for at least two hours. It was three a.m. at this point. That was a tough night, and the next day was I draggin' my butt.
I hear you. I've spent quite a bit of dough at the local Starbucks during those mornings. But its all good in the end.
