April Sickness

I was thinking about how lucky we have been this April.  Adeline has been moving through the month illness free.  Of course that set the inevitable in motion.  Yep, 103.5 and puking all day.  Didn't even try to lift her head off the pillow.  Poor little girl.

Things are still looking up though.  This virus doesn't seem to be settling into her lungs and will likely run its course in a couple of days.  Every other April of Adeline's life has been spent in the hospital and on oxygen.  Even last year, The Belle was sporting a cannula for a couple of weeks.  Viruses settle in her lungs and eventually they give into infection.  Her lungs tire and sats drop.  That's when we are in the ER trying very hard to avoid admission. 

Fingers crossed that this year is different.  We are half way there. . .
