Doctor Update #2

Eva's "cold" has now turned to the lungs.  Last night, her cough was getting deeper and stickier.  We decided to give her a breathing treatment.  When we were ready to turn it on with her on Scott's lap, she reached for the mask just knowing that this would help her.  I couldn't even imagine being her age and know more what would be medically better for me.  huh. Anyway, she took it with no problems and was given again in the morning.  I called the doctors office and explained that she has taken her cold to a bad cough and asked for the doctor to call.  I was hoping that we could jut get a prescription over the phone but of course, since we don't live in the wagon days, they asked me to come back in to see the doctor.  I was hoping it was not another disappointing lollipop visit.  We saw different doctor this time and she was placed on predisone.  He called this a light dose, only five days worth.  I will only hope that by Tuesday, all will be healthy and medicine free.  Oh, and we got the lollipops too :).  Success for all.
