Someone hasn't been feeling well! :(

Well, Liliana has been fighting off some kind of virus cold bug that Gwynny had for almost two weeks and seems to be over. Last week Lily wasn't feeling well and then as this week has begun to progress she seemed to get worse. In fact, today when we arrived at Speech therapy I told our ST that I couldn't promise her that Lily or I wouldn't sneeze or cough during therapy today. She quickly asked me if we were sick and I told her "yes". She then told me that we should just cancel our appointment because she had planned to do a bunch of exercises and things in Lily's mouth and she thought that Lily would not appreciate someone sticking their fingers in her mouth since she is all congested. So we got back in the van and came home.

The good news is...she went to the doctor this afternoon and our wonderful pediatrician said that Lily's lungs sounded clear and that her ears looked fine from what she could see. In her words, "She dodged a bullet!" There is so much junk going around right now here in Northeast Ohio namely the Swine flu that it is running ramped. Many of the school districts in this area have had to close schools because of it. They are seeing many cases of it every day. I am so thankful that Lily seems to just have an upper respiratory virus and should be ok. Our pediatrician gave her an antibiotic and assured me that Liliana would be one of the first patients to get the H1N1 vaccine when it arrives. They have compiled a list of all their patients that are high risk and Lily is one of them. I just hope it arrives in time. On another note, I also went to the doctor and have a sinus infection. No news here...I always seem to get them. Underwent some blood work and allergy testing lately to find out the underlying cause. Well, that's another story in itself. Hopefully we will be able to make it to OT tomorrow. I better get some rest. Good night all!
