So, I took son William in for what I thought was going to be a quick doctor appointment, quick prescription, and a quick fix for the cold he had developed. I was totally taken aback when the doctor said that we had to go straight to the hospital for one night maybe two. They thought Will had developed an illness called RSV (still don't know what it stands for). This sickness if very contagious and can be dangerous in babies. Basically, he was having a hard time breathing and had some gunk in him that we needed to deal with. Uncertain about exactly what was going on we rushed to the hospital and checked into a room. After a few tests they determined that he did not have RSV, but just a really bad cold that manifested itself in wierd ways. We ended up staying at the hospital for 24 hours, while Lucy was tossed to and fro, until we were sent home. We are still having to do the breathing treatments 3 times a day or so. It is situations like this that really teach me to lean on the Lord for peace and to trust him more. How good it is to know that this darling baby of mine is in the Lord's hands. Thanks for all your prayers-
