prayer request for Asa

The Aube's have all been hit with these bad chest colds the last couple of weeks.  Asa's been fighting it too and so on Christmas I didn't let anyone hold him.  I really don't let anyone hold him usually anyway, but was more adamant about it and I'm so thankful I was because last night he started having trouble breathing. 

Today I brought him to the doctors and he's now on a steroid nebulizer twice a day and albuterol nebulizer 3-4 times a day.  Too bad I can't give him breathing treatments while nursing cause I don't know how much I can do if I'm always sitting on the couch nursing or medicating my baby boy. 

I'm not overly worried about him (thank God) because Sam is on both of those medicines daily for his asthma so I'm comfortable with this stuff, but I'm hoping he'll be breathing easier in a day, because if not he'll probably needs an antibiotic.  Please pray that he'll get better fast.  It's nerve wracking to watch him struggle to breathe and I am nervous that if it doesn't clear up quickly, it could turn into something worse.  He's too little for this :o(
