asthma...i hate it!

I have asthma. Elijah has asthma. Sam has asthma. Because Sam was a preemie, he gets hit hard when the cold weather arrives. He is now on oral steroids and also albuterol breathing treatments. I swear the kid sounds like he is going to cough up a lung or some such organ. The steroids are not fun. They tend to make an already moody child, even more sensitive. I just boost my caffeine intake and smile and know that they (the drugs) are doing the work to help his lungs work the way they are supposed to. We might make it to school tomorrow if we are lucky.
