Strap in as Laura recounts the scariest week of her life for Danielle, sharing the rollercoaster ride that was a full week's worth of unlocking scary parenting milestone experiences as Peanut battled multiple respiratory viruses and an especially gnarly case of croup. Multiple trips to the ER, overnight hospitalizations, an ambulance ride, the ever-present parental guilt of not being able to be in multiple places at the same time, and the importance of finding time and space to process the tough stuff in between the moments of chaos. Laura's story has a happy ending, but we can't help but think of the many families who can't say the same. Please consider donating to one of the foundations mentioned in the episode, for the countless families living through the waking nightmare that is having a sick baby!
