Since being home from the hospital, Alexandra has seemed to be doing much better.  She had been taking her prescribed medicine and we thought the worst was over.  Well, Wednesday evening she started coughing again and her lungs were sounding bad, so Thursday I took her to see a pediatrician in Salonta.

After listening to her lungs, discussing her symptoms and looking over her discharge papers from the hospital, the doctor thought she may have to be readmitted.  After some discussion we decided to try to treat her first at home, with the understanding that if her symptoms worsen, she would be taken directly to the hospital.

So I bought a nebulizer, picked up her six different prescriptions and began her treatments.  We decided it would be best for Alexandra to stay with me for the next few days, that way I can keep a better eye on her, prepare her nebulizer treatments (no nice pre-measured, pre-mixed, single dose packs), administer her medications and be close if there are any complications.

Thank the Lord, already today, her lungs sound better, she is coughing less and she seems to be feeling better.  Please pray that Alexandra’s symptoms would not worsen and pray that God would touch her and help her through this sickness. God is able!
