Kate had a bad cough last week & by Thursday afternoon she could hardly catch her breath. She was wheezing really bad & I was so happy to have some Albuterol to give her breathing treatments. Then her fever shot up to 103 degrees!
We headed to the Dr Friday morning after breathing treatments every four hours. Dr Owens tested her for strep & flu, which was both negative. She thought it was just a virus, but thought it might be mycoplasma (walking pneumonia). I talked her out of doing the blood test since the Albuterol was working. Well, boy was I wrong!! By Sunday the steroids didn't seem to be helping at all and she wasn't any better & seemed worse even! She had crackles in her lungs & still had fever. The Dr just listened to her lungs & diagnosed her with walking pneumonia.
Aberlee starting running fever Monday, after coughing all night & went to the Dr today. Alex started running fever today after coughing all night last night. I don't feel well either!!
Mike is of course back in Europe! Hopefully, by the time he gets home Saturday we will all be well!!
Here are some pictures from the last few days:
