Well Gentry has had a long road these last couple of months. Really since the beginning of the summer. The tubes cured the ear infection plague thankfully though. But now we on to continual respiratory problems. She just went to the doctor a week ago tomorrow to be seen for the the same respiratory stuff for the 3rd time in 2 months. She always tests neg. for RSV thankfully but her lungs are always wet and filled up and boy doesn she get a nasty cough. So she is too young to actualy diagnose with asthma but they are pretty convinced that is what she has. It does run in my mom's family too. She has completed two rounds of prednizone and it worked temporarily but then it always fires back up again. So obviously this time we had to go an alternative route. So now a nebulizer/breathing treamtment machine has become a new permanant appliance at our house. She is doing breathing treatments every 6-8 hrs and will hopefully be able to cease that in the next couple of days. Then we will just use it as needed. She is also on amoxicillan! Yeah, I just love meds. So I have posted a pic of her doing a breathing treatment and boy does she look cute!!!

Then to make matters worse she was walking around the couch the evening of her doctors appt. and lost her balance and caught the corner of the coffee table. So we got our first shiner. Not too bad, but sure added to her traumatic day and mine!!!! dr
