Harry back in Hospital overnight with croup

Hi,
Well we managed to go and see Harry Potter on Thursday night and it was very good. When we got home, Harry sounded very throaty and wasn't right. By morning he was barking like a sea lion again and we took him down to the Doctors. The Doctor took a quick look at him and told us to take him down to the local hospital.

Harry was diagnosed with croup again !

They put him on steriods and kept him in over night. Carol stayed with him and midday Saturday they returned him. We had to give him some more steriods whilst at home and we have a nebulizer for a spray to give him as well. This involves a face mask over his mouth and nose and a tube and what is basically a asthma inhaler type thing at the other end. Harry hates this and it takes two of us to pin him down and administer it.

But minutes later he is breathing so much better.

It is now Monday morning and Harry sounds and appears to be much better. So hopefully he will be over this soon.

Ben still has a cold and has a nose that rivals Niagra Falls !

I doubt I will have much time now to write until after Christmas so I will send you my best wishes in the next message. Enjoy !
