Sick, Yet Again

So the wildflowers are sick yet again. We had about one good week after about a 3 week bout of the crud. Tuesday Madison got a runny nose, Parker followed shortly after. Then on Friday night Madison developed a horrid cough accompanied by quick short breaths along with some lovely crackles coming from her lungs. So we gave her breathing treatments on Saturday and today we visited the weekend clinic. The Dr. put her on a steroid to shrink the swelling in her lungs. So it's either Asthma that is triggered by a virus, RSV or advanced Bronchollitis. She gets the lung issues almost every time she gets sick! It's very scary to have a child that is having a hard time breathing! Hopefully this will take care of the problem and we will have a restful night tonight. So you could keep her in your prayers that she will get well soon and that it's not asthma!!

I'll be praying for Madison. Sidney has struggled with Ashthma and coughing ever since she was a baby, we just didn't get it diagnosed until she was five. I am praying and believing that she will outgrow it. She has gotten so much better, she doesn't cough quite as much.
