Adeline had a hard time bringing her sats above 90 this weekend which sent us to the ER. Thankfully, her pulmonologist was on-call again. We were triaged immediately and sent directly to a room. After taking a quick peek at Adeline, the first doctor mentioned that we should prepare for admission. I knew that would be the case. Adeline, at the time, required an oxygen flow of 3 liters which is pretty strong and usual. Luck was on our side, and Dr. Chidekel (our amazing pulmonogoist) made it down to our room. Adeline was all smiles and presented as a shining star. After seeing that she was in good spirits, he was confident we could manage her needs at home. I just need confirmation that we weren't being negligent by keeping her at home rather than monitored in the hospital.
We were out of the ER in 2.5 hours which is record time! Adeline was very happy when we got home. Little did I know that my other two would be running fevers when we arrived.
