When It Rains It Pours!

Yesterday we celebrated Gizmo getting better. He is back to his old self again, except skinny. Hard to believe that 48 hours ago we thought it was the end. My Grandparents went by to check on Gizmo on Wednesday since they were in the area and they picked me up early from school. Yea, what a treat! They took cute pictures of me.
Now I ask you do I look sick to you? No way, I look cute and happy. If you have been reading the blog, you know that I have had bad congestion with fever for a couple of days, since Gizmo was in the hospital. By Tuesday, I felt fine! So we thought all was back to normal. I got to play outside at school and at home.

This morning my dad said that I look better but that he didn't like the way my lungs sounded. Mom thought he was crazy. Good thing dad made the appointment tonight. I have pneumonia again! That is right pneumonia. So far it isn't bad enough to go to the hospital like last time. Last time I had 104 fever, I wouldn't eat or drink, and I turned blue. This time it is walking pneumonia, but mom says it should be called running around, dancing, singing, playing like crazy pneumonia. You would never know that I had it, unless you listen to me breathe. The doc said that doing the breathing treatments all week helped this be a minor case. It is only in my right side of the lungs. I am on antibiotics and more breathing treatments. I have to go back to the doctor tomorrow to check my oxygen level. That was where they make my toe look like ET's finger.

When they put that on me today, I immediately wanted to take that off. I do remember the hospital. I didn't like it!! I hope this one doesn't go to that. I have a new doctor that seems to be taking care of it quicker...not waiting till I turned blue to do anything. I hope to be better soon. I will keep you posted.
