Poor Hud

Hudson is not even one yet....and he has been put though the ringer!
We always say we have 5 kids...one of every kind.  With Hudson we knew from birth something was completely different about him.  That was confirmed this fall/winter.  After many many many trips to the pediatrician to try and figure out why....we were finally referred to Primary Childrens Hospital.  We met with the only pediatric pulmonoligist in Utah.  We spent most of the day there and did many different tests.  Well the good news.....we think we have an answer (:

Hudson has bronchomalacia.  It seems to make since.  However he has been put on 3 different medications with 5-8 treatments per day!!  We hope to see improvement in about a month.  He also has low IgE- which could mean an immunodeficiency disorder

 but, he will have to retest for that this summer. He is such a happy kid and not much keeps him down.  We love him soooooo much and are so thankful for amazing doctors to help our chunck out!
