a touch of pneumonia

Miss Liza woke up late on Saturday night with wheezing and a croupy cough. She had quite a fever. By Monday, I was concerned so I took her to the doctor (I know the Spirit prompted me).

The doctor didn’t hear any wheezing but he did hear a crackle in her left lung. Her oxygen was 93, we overlapped tylenol & motrin to keep her fever down. Clinically she has pneumonia. Sigh…

We watched her closely, started antibiotics (which I think helped immensely). Tuesday Evening she started acting more like herself and her fever went down. I do wonder if her lung affected by the aspirated popcorn is more susceptible (though the doctor’s say it isn’t likely).

I’m grateful she is doing okay.
