Pneumonia
Hi friends & family. I realize it been a while since I wrote an update for little miss Henley. I don't have a lot of energy to write now either but really need to ask for some prayers on her behalf. Henley has been sick for over a week. Wednesday I took her to the doctor because she had a fever and a terrible cough. They decided to put her on 3 days worth of steroids and breathing treatments 3 times a day. On Friday morning after doing a treatment she was still having a lot of trouble breathing. I did another treatment about an hour later and called the doctor to tell them it didn't appear to be helping. I took her back in to the office. They listened to her lungs, gave her a third breathing treatment and listened again. At this point he was diagnosed with pneumonia which is what I had feared would be the case.
We started another round of steroids, a z-pack and more frequent breathing treatments. Today she seems worse than yesterday. You can actually hear the rattling in her chest when you are sitting next to her, and her ribs sink in with every breath she takes. I have done three breathing treatments on her since 5:00 and we have finally put her to bed. Please pray that she can kick this thing before we end up in the hospital with her again.
In addition to that, please pray that Haven and Zane can get over their colds that are not yet & hopefully won't turn into pneumonia.
