the sweet life » Getting Healthy
The last few weeks we've had a nasty cold make its way through our family. I had it first, then passed it on to Julie and Cooper at about the same time. We assumed that Anna would be the least likely to pick it up, but she did last week.
Poor thing, we finally had to take her to the Doctor on Sunday when her fever spiked. To be safe they took an x-ray of her lungs and drew some blood (not fun with a 2 month old). The docs thought it was still just a virus, but asked us to bring her back on Monday to check her out. She was much improved, although still very congested at night.
Both Julie and I felt like we were coming down with Round 2, but Zicam and neti pots seemed to have made a difference. While it's a relatively small inconvenience in the grand scheme of things, being sick and having two sick kids takes it out of you. Whew - here's to a healthy summer.
Update 04/30: Anna bounced back pretty well, but I was unable to escape the bug (for the 2nd time). We have highs in the 80's today, so we're hoping we all dry up!
Here to lots of healthy days to come! I am glad everyone is on the mend.
