| On the right is a picture of our lungs. The right side lung is someone that has been taken over by pnenomia. The left lung is bronchilititus. On the right side of the drawing is a better look of our bronchial tubes. The top with the larger circle is normal. The bottom is how inflamed they can get when you have bronchilititus. In normal terms - bronchititus are the tree limbs swollen shut. Pnenomia would be if a family of apes were living on the limbs. |

| Taking breathing treatment the easiest way - Sleeping through it. Four hours should go by quicker :) |
Newsflash - So I came back from my hospital break and Scott had talked with the early shift RT & drs. They said that they were going to see us again on Monday. Guess we are looking to leave closer to Monday or Tuesday now. I never really thought we would be here that long but at least we have a better understanding how serious the situation is. I need to be more attentive of her breathing patterns. Currently she is taking another treatment that is lasting four hours. Her breathing is very deep. It is taking her much work to exhale than to inhale. They are "nose sucking" all the mucus out. With this treatment, luckily she is sleeping. I want to say she is snoring but I am not sure. Definitely a question I will ask.
