We're in WV

We got into WV yesterday evening and it is good to see everyone. We are still pretty tired from the travel.

The hardest thing though has been that Henry has very rapidly developed asthma. He was wheezy on Saturday after playing outside in the dust, but was better Sunday. On Monday he had his 18-month check up and the doctor prescribed an inhaler, 'just in case'. The night in the hotel in Tampa he coughed all night. We're not sure if he has a cold or what, but that morning we tried out the inhaler and it helped. He coughed all night last night too, requiring the inhaler at several points. Today has not been much better.

I guess from what I've heard since we've been here, four out of five of Henry's first cousins had childhood asthma and outgrew it as teenagers. Let's hope it isn't going to be too bad.
