well, things have been going smoothly until Nolan woke up Friday morning with a dry croupy cough :-( More than likely a common cold, but with Nolan's weak lungs and his low immune system it can cause a big problem.  So all this has led to low oxygen... Thankfully Nolan was recently approved for a therapy vest,and we are using the vest along with his breathing treatments.  Nolan has been responding pretty well to these treatments and I thought he was doing better today.  He went ahead to physical therapy and karate but by this afternoon he was as white as a ghost.  I checked his oxygen and he was 82% and his temp was ranging from 99.4 - 100.  Just barely under needing to go to the ER.  He did better after his treatment but was in bed by 7pm and is on 1 liter of oxygen :-(


Here's a video we took of Nolan's vest right after we got it. It's kind of funny! He was pretending to be a monkey...lol



Here's a video of the kids on a recent trip to their great grandmothers house.  They made this awesome slip and slide on a hill :-) Nolan was very wise and decided not to try...lol!
