Well folks, it's time for the not-so-good news. I'm pretty sick. I really never got over that cold I got last month. For the last 2 weeks, I've been feeling worse than ever. This cough keeps me up all night, and then I'm tired all day. Despite all the excitement and presents, I was pretty miserable yesterday. I had a fever. And for the last few days, I haven't even really felt much like eating.
It was back to the doctor today. She was not happy when she listened to my chest with the stethoscope. She said I was wheezing. No wonder I'm so exhausted. I'm having to work a lot harder to get the air in when I breathe. I got a breathing treatment at the office which made me feel a little better. Mommy and Daddy are going to keep giving the treatments to me until I feel better. I also had another RSV test which was negative. And I had to get an x-ray. I was very good and stayed still while they took the pictures of my chest.
As if that's not enough, I have another ear infection to top it all off!
So I guess you're wondering why? Why am I always sick? Well, it's just one of those things that goes with being a baby. Mommy said I have to get sick so that I can build up my immunities. Also, the doctor thinks that because I have reflux and spit up so often that it causes me to stay congested and more susceptible to these things.
I am trying hard to be a trooper through it all so that Mommy won't worry too much. I give her as many smiles and laughs as I can muster. I even ate all her homemade yellow squash for lunch.
Sigh...hopefully I'll have better news for you next time.
