Since maybe September Billy has been sick like crazy. I mean i cant even count on my fingers anymore how much he has been sick. This past winter was absolutely horrible, One day its freezing & snowing, the next day its hot & we're wearing shorts & flip flops. Sad to say Billy & I had countless of times we spent in the hospital.
Now that its May & its getting warmer i'm really hoping we can say buh bye to all that & have a more healthier life. Our last visit to the hospital was actually a couple days ago. Billy had, had another spell where he woke up in the middle of the night & could not catch his breath for the life of him. He hasn't had one of these since maybe November. He was doing really good. But then I got a call at 4 in the morning from him saying they had to call the squad. its so scary & I just hate that this last time i wasn't by his side. So as i was saying we had to go to the hospital because since he had that spell. he was short of breath off & on & his chest was extremely tight. We was really hoping he wasn't getting Pneumonia again because he had all the symptoms that he had when he had Pneumonia the last time. At first Billy was being SUPER stubborn & kept putting it off for another day. When truthfully he was just getting worse, His nurse & I decided we was going to just call the squad. Well they took him in & we found out that he had a lot of air in his lungs. They gave him 3 different meds to help him. I'm happy that i'm able to say I have my baby back. He is back to his goofy self :)
Today we found out that the 16th of this month is when Billy's surgery will be for him to get his NEW Baclofen Pump. For people who aren't familiar with the pump heres a link that tells about it:
