31 for 21 - Day 7:

Aidan has not been feeling well for two weeks now - he's dripping from the nose, he's coughing a bad-sounding cough, and he's chewing on his sleeves.

When he gets a cold I worry. We've been to emergency a few too many times with croup, and something inside of me tightens whenever his cough worsens. His passageways are smaller since he has Down syndrome, and croup just seems to love him.

So far we've stayed out of emergency. Today he was a little happier, so I'm hopeful that he's on the mend.
