Wow - the last two weeks have just been crazy at our house. On the 11th I took Kendall to the dr b/c she had been coughing for too long in my books. She was diagnosed with walking pneumonia and put on Zithromax. Then Thursday Uncle Mike had his heart attack and the next oh six days are a blurred mess. After the funeral on Tuesday I felt that our routine would be a little bit more on track but that is just not my luck. Got a call on Wednesday afternoon that Kendall woke up from her nap with a fever of 102.7 so I leave work AGAIN to go get her. I called the doctor ~ but they said to alternate tylenol and ibuprofen every four hours and see how she was. She napped almost all night on Wednesday and slept through the night and as soon as it got close to medicine time - her temp went right back up ~ so on Thursday morning I thought oh why not bring her in and see what they say. They did a chest x-ray and on top of the pneumonia she had some "gel like" substance (which has a proper name, but I can't remember it) in her right lung. The doctor was very glad I brought her in and said that going by just the x-ray he was very concerned, but being that he saw her - listened to her lungs and she was talking his arm off - he wasn't AS concerned. So then we got Augmentin to work WITH the Zithromax and hopefully this gets all the junk out of her lungs. I sure hope so. Now I'm sick too but I couldn't miss any more work because my desk looks like a tornado hit it (which it usually does anyways!) I cannot wait for June!!!!!

Kendall Grandma feels so bad you are sick. Grandma is sick to and it is not fair. The Dr. tells me rest is a very big part of getting better so grab your baby Kendall and take a nap. Love Grandma Miller
