A nasty bought of it has struck our household. For some reason my kids are particularly prone to this. I'd appreciate a prayer our way, especially for Henry, our 3 year old who has it the worst right now. We we literally up ALL night with him. He is just wore out and miserable today. (I'm just trying to function!) Thanks!

Praying. Have you tried the homeopathic remedy Drosera? It seems to really help my two croupy prone boys age 5 and 3.

Praying for all of you, Lisa! And thanks for the tip, Trish! Wish I had known about that when the kids got it last year.

Praying for you. I'm so thankful that we didn't have to deal with that last winter.

I'm so sorry, Lisa. My kids always get croup. It's one of those illnesses we tend to struggle with.

Mine get it too. The fresh air seems to help more quickly than anything else. I have spent many nights in the cold of winter, bundled up in blankets with a croupy kid on our front porch.

Prayers for it to be over soon Lisa.
