Update!

I took Paige to the doctor this afternoon since she had another horrible night last night, and didn't seem that well in the morning. I mean, she was better than the morning before, so we were making progress, but I knew that I wouldn't feel good until I knew she had been looked at.

Anyway, the doctor gave her an inhaler to take 2 times a day. The sad part is that I have to spray the inhaler through a tube with a mask over her nose and mouth since she is just little. It just looks really cute-sad when I put the mask up to her face. I thought she would hate the whole thing considering I have to leave the mask up to her face while she takes 8 full breaths. But oddly enough, she really likes it and just sits there. I think she likes the way it feels to breath into it. And I made sure to show her that there was a picture of a bear on the side of it.

So we'll see if that helps. I would like her to get better so we can go out and do something. This week was the conclusion of this session of programs, so we missed the last swimming lesson tonight (and as a result the night seemed sooooo long), and we will be missing the last session of Our Special Time tomorrow morning. Then next week we have no programs since it is march break. Oh well, I just want her to be better so if it means that tomorrow will consist of sticking more and more sheets of stickers on paper, than so be it.

Oh, I hope she feels better. Too bad I didn't know sooner, I could have lent you that yellow inhaler tube thingy that costs $50. I bought one for Leyla last year, fortunately we've only used it once. I hope she feels better soon!
