Low energy girl

Victoria got to go to school this morning, but came home a little early. She was running in the gym, and of course went into a major coughing fit, so she and her teacher decided she should come home. She asked me numerous times today if we could go on a bike ride (it's raining and really windy here today). After the last time about 5:30 this evening when she threw a fit because she couldn't go outside, I found her like this 5 minutes later.

We also had one of her follow up appointments this afternoon. Luckily for us, the doctor she saw in the ER on Saturday (Dr. Kris) is one of the partners at V's pediatrician. I learned why she has to have another Xray in a month to make sure the pneumonia is gone. Apparently there *might* have been an enlarged lymph node in her lung that they want to check on. I also found out the pneumonia was probably worse than I was led to believe. When we were in the ER, I forgot to ask Dr. Kris how bad it was (assuming it wasn't too bad, as she couldn't hear anything, and upon asking the nurse, she said if it was too bad, they'd have admitted her.) We saw Dr. S today (same one we saw on Friday), and she said she could now hear some noise in her lungs, and upon discussing the situation with Dr. Kris, I was told that V's x-ray looked like it had come from a totally different kid (that she would never have believed she couldn't hear anything when it was that bad).

So, doc's appt next Thursday to make sure V's getting better, then X-ray in a month. Fun stuff.
