Pneumonia :(




Pneumonia!!!
Little Gretta has viral pneumonia. She can’t say pneumonia, and I can barely spell it correctly! Poor Gretta it is so sad!!! The poor kid has been sick for a while. She just has runny nose she just can’t seem to get rid of. I kept blaming it on teething, but finally I headed a motherly sixth sense that something wasn’t right. We went in last week and they gave her an antibiotic which I faithfully gave her for 6 days until she broke out in a rash. (She the pictures for details.) So we went back in to the doctor yesterday and they had us get a chest x-ray. It turns out that it is viral pneumonia. The good news is that we know what it is, but the bad news we still just have to wait it out.
She is still a very happy camper and hasn’t let the whole thing get her down. She still seems to have plenty of energy and is all smiles. What a great kid! I love her!

Poor kid! Doesn't it make you so sad when you can't do much to help, as a parent?! Hope she gets better soon!
