Currier has had the croup for two days. It's so old fashioned sounding I didn't even know the croup still existed. For those who don't know what the croup is (I didn't!), it's a viral infection that causes breathing difficulty and a seal-like barking cough. Currier is taking cough medicine, a steroid and lots of steamy showers. He's doing much better today and giggles every time he coughs because let's face it seals make funny sounds.

Poor Currier! And poor you!!
ReplyDeleteSteam steam steam (and steroids) will do the trick.
A big Italian soothing hug to the little fella. And a glass of robust wine for mamma.
