Hello Croup!

Bridget had a rude awakening around midnight last week with a sudden onset of Croup. My poor little thing was in a panic because Croup makes you feel like you can't breathe. We were able to get Bridget a blessing and then, per WebMD, put warm clothes over her PJ's and took her outside for the cool air to help open her lungs up. It really helped but when we tried bringing her back inside the Croup attack initiated once again. So, I volunteered my great husband to sit out on the front porch with her for a couple of hours. I was nice enough to offer him electronic Yahtzee to occupy his time, though.
