The good news and the bad news
We'll start with the bad. Two days after we made it back to Chicago, Bryker came down with croup. After one night of wheezing and barking (that sounds really appealing, doesn't it?), we took him to the ER at Children's. He got steroids and a breathing treatment. (Why do they make kids wear a mask that is shooting out steam for FIVE minutes? The nurse said we could hold him down or tie him down with a sheet. Needless to say, we chose to hold him.) Four hours later we were back home. He is doing better but is still contagious so we have been quarantined. Hopefully it will be gone in the next day or two.

sorry about croup. chase has had it like 4 times... but he never ended up in the hospital: poor bryker! hot steam, cold air, humidifier, lots to drink... those are my recommendations. no fun. hope he stops barking soon - so sad!!

Congrats Missy! You took the plunge! Quick question- how did you know Bryker had croup? Roy has been really sick (cough, runny nose etc.) and I am wondering if its more than just a cold. Anyway, congrats again!
Congrats Missy!
