Valorie has gotten a cold over these last 2 days. She started with a sore throat and then a clogged nose. To those who don't know... if Valorie gets a common cold (to just about anyone it could be fine and they could fight it relatively easy)she could have complications that could bring on pneumonia.
We have been doing her increased breathing treatments- which include Albuterol,
then Hypertonic Saline, Pulmozyme then Tobi in the morning with her first vest treatment. During which she does her math games online (with Georgia watching her play, telling me every other minute, "I'm bored, can I play now?")
Before Valorie goes to sleep we have an additional dose of Pulmozyme and then Tobi mask treatment. Today (April 18) she ended up doing 4 sinus rinses as she had such a clogged up nose. She has gotten to the point to where she can do it on her own (with parent supervision).
We are asking anyone who reads this to please pray for Valorie to get better and not have any complications with this cold. If she needs to see a doctor we will do so on Monday, however it hasn't gotten that bad. Thanks for your prayers for her and our continued strength in working with her. God Bless you!
