Pray!

Today we saw Dr. Reyes, respiratory doctor, for our regular scheduled appointment. We were anxious to have another chest X-ray to see if there would be a change considering the last 4 weeks of battling some kind of infection. The X-ray was worse than the previous one and he indicated he was hearing a little wheezing. Therefore he has recommended that we start breathing treatments (at home, twice a day), antibiotics and antihistamine/decongestant for several weeks. This will be the first time to do breathing treatments since leaving the hospital. Our next appointment will be in 6 weeks and he has ordered a CT scan a few days before that appointment. He is concerned that he might possibly have bronchiectasis. Nurse Jenkins (that's me) believes that we are just battling normal allergies that we do every year! So breathing treatments and his other medicines should take care of the problem!

Parker's school home bound services will continue for the summer! So he should be back on track when school starts again.

Have a great week! Love, Kay
