sick

Solvei, and then Nels, both came down with a nasty something over the weekend (it does always seem to be that this happens at the beginning of a weekend or holiday). They weren’t emergency worthy so I watched them over the weekend, but decided that I would get an urgent care appointment for this morning since they were still fairly miserable. For the last three weeks or so Saedi has had a cough, no other symptoms, just a cough that at times could be a bit nasty. Since it wasn’t really getting better I thought I’d take her into the doctor as well since we were already going.

Solvei and Nels were examined and determined to have a viral something-or-other. Saedi got to have a chest x-ray.  After it was read and she was given a breathing treatment,

the doctor said she has a touch of Asthma that was probably aggravated by allergies or a cold. I’ve thought about having her tested before when she was wheezing after running around playing outside, we just hadn’t made the appointment yet. Sent home with an inhaler, she will be doing better in a few days time. Now we just have to hope that Solvei and Nels will be feeling better by then too.
