Ugh.......Tracheitis!




So It has been an eventful week as V became sick on Wednesday. She woke up coughing, coughing, and coughing. She was not able to eat and she was throwing up. She was not herself and was crying most of the day. I had to take her to Miami Children's to see Dr Sanchez-Vegas who knows V extremely well. She is an Infectious Disease Doc and is great with helping Victoria with overcome illness. She said that V has tracheitis and put V on Tobi nebs which is an antibiotic that in inhaled via breathing treatment. So far it seems to be working but V is still not herself. She did wake up today more playful than the last couple of days. And get excited she slept until 5:30 a.m. which is better than 3:00 a.m. the last couple of days. Yes Mommy is tired too:) Hopefully she will overcome this soon and be back to her sassy self:) Also when ever V gets sick or in on antibiotics she gets a nasty outbreak of yeast everywhere. She has it in her mouth again and other places that make it really uncomfortable for her. We are double dosing Fluconizole to help so far we are not winning with that nasty stuff. Victoria has an extremely low T-Cell count in which she does not have the greatest ability to fight virus and fungus. V had blood work done a month ago to see if her T-cell situation has improved at all. I am waiting for the results from her Immunologist Doc. Well that's it for now V just woke up from her morning nap. Stay tuned ..... God Bless

Hanging out with Mommy!
