i dont know how many of u ladies will be on the boards today but just wanted to ask for some prayers...
my two 1/2 yr. old nephew kyllian got rushed to snyder's chidren's hospital last night. he was having major shortness of breath to the point where he couldn't breathe - his chest going all the way in & all the way out..literally gasping for air & could not get a breath...leading to really heavy dizzyness too. Of course they did a million & one tests on him last night - and the docs said he was an absolute angel. He's still there...prob. will be all day because they have no idea what it is yet as it could be a million & one things...which is scary. So just pray for a quick & not so serious result. he's the sweetest little boy in the world! love u ladies. thanks so much!
**** UPDATE:
thank u so much ladies! it's great to know how much u're all there with kind words and prayers Kyllian's doing well...He was had snyder's over night & all day yesterday under really close observation....they were going to keep him an additional day at snyder's, but every test they did came back negative(which is better than positive i guess!) ...the doctors explained that while he's too young to diagnose he'll probably have asthma...and that it was a mini-attack. For the next three days he has to do oxygen treatments every four hours(poor little guy!)...i just feel so bad! he's only two and 1/2...they put him through a LOT!(although necessary i know)...my brother & sil are of course a nervous wreck now 'cause they woke up to his breathing issues in the middle of the night....so all the 'had we not woken up' and 'what if it happens again' things are running through their heads.... i know asthma is a pain and u'd rather be without it, but i'm glad it's not anything more serious(as far as we know)...still freaks me out a little that they couldn't 'REALLY' figure out what it was, but the doctors there were great so i'm sure they knew what they were doing. Despite the billion tests they ran on him, he was an absolute angel and thinks his oxygen treatments are the coolest thing in the world lol. so he's happy thanks again for all the prayers ladies! it's so scary when stuff like this happen!

I'm glasd to hear that hes ok! Asthma is something he can live with and your family will learn how to deal with it. My niece was diagnosed with asthma when she was a little over a year old but it only gets real bad when she gets sick and she has to do treatments. Shes now almost 4 and shes been fine with it. He wil be ok its a treatable problem!
By the way he is the cutest!!!

thanks so much for the kind words :) i have no doubt he'll be alright....while it's a pain, i definetly know it's something u can live with as we have family & a few friends that have it. My good friend who's son was diagnosed at 3 was telling me that it's actually a good thing when they catch it that young, because the child gets accustomed to it & knows when somethings wrong, when he/she needs a treatment, etc. The attack was actually the result of him being sick, so it's funny u say that about ur niece. anyways, thanks again! i'm just glad asthma is all that it is. still scary, but much better than anything worse!

Re: Re: prayers please: UPDATE on the little guy...
oh my, i just saw this now!! im so glad to hear he's doing better now. as i was reading the description of what happened, i kept thinking about our friends from church who have a little guy who is..i think...just about 1 and he started having really scary breathing difficulties and the doctors, after many manyyyyy tests and appts, found that it was very bad asthma complicated by acid reflux.... and one other thing too (i wish i could remember!!). they had a hard time diagnosing him with the acid reflux bc they thought it was something else. thankfully hes on medication now and does breathing treatments as well and he's doing okay. i hope its just the asthma and your nephew stays healthy!!

Omg, your poor nephew!! That must have been tough on him at such a young age, I can't imagine what his parents and the rest of your family are going through!!
I'm glad to hear it isn't anything worse than asthma, and it's adorable that he thinks the O2 treatmeats are so cool!!

So glad that he is feeling better. I don't suffer from asthma but I have read that many kids grow out of it as they get older. Saying lots of prayers for your adorable nephew!!

Glad to hear it isn't too serious! My DH had serious asthma as a child and grew out of it by the time he was 12-13. Hopefully the same will be true (though even faster!) here!

Glad to hear that he is doing ok and it seems little man is taking it all in stride. Asthma attacks can be scary but at least its a managable condition and many times kids grow out of it. Your family will remain in my thoughts

I LOVE this picture..I hope he is doing well. My brother had asthma like that. It was hard the first efw years because the attacks get BAD but they may put him on a nebulizer treatment which helps. I can try and find out the place my mom ordered all his stuff from; blankets sheets pillows etc that are made for astmatics.
