This child

So WAY back in November Jenna got a little teeny tiny cold, she developed a little cough and runny nose and sounded congested. Well...the cough went away and the runny nose went away, but the congestion did not. She has 3 chest x-rays and every time they told me she had bronchitis. Finally in December she got another cold and the Dr. put her on a nebulizer once a day. Well nothing, the cold went away but the congestion did not. It never really seemed to bother her, she never had a hard time breathing, it was just there.

So finally we went to see the Pulmonary Doctor. She decided that we had better test for Cystic Fibrosis. Made me really REALLY nervous. It had always been kind of on my mind that maybe she had it but I was really hoping it wasn't. So up to Primary Children's Hospital we went for the test. It was actually very interesting they put these electrodes on her arm that made her sweat and then they had to stay on for 30 minutes until they had collected enough sweat. And while we were there we saw Marie Osmond. Anyways thank goodness the tests came back negative. Such a HUGE relief.

So I guess that she has Reactive Airway Disease or in other words Asthma. Not great but SO SO much better than cystic fibrosis. She has been on steroids all this week and guess what? NO CONGESTION!!!! So anyways that is were we are at. This child, I don't know, guess I was lucky with the other ones. I mean I know that I am SUPER lucky with Jenna but seriously breast milk jaundice, thrush, bronchitis, and asthma. Good think she is a CUTIE pie.
