Another Round of Pneumonia

Katie had a follow-up doctor's appointment today with her pediatrician to see how she was doing now that she is on an inhaler twice per day. She has been suffering from a cold again for several weeks and to our dismay, the doctor noted at this visit that her lungs no longer sounded clear. Yet again, another cold has settled into her lungs and caused Pneumonia. I think this is the third time in the past 8 months that she has had Pneumonia. To top it off, she also has fluid in both ears. Her ears are not very red and they are not bothering her, but there is a little infection there as well.
Oddly enough, she is feeling better today than she was just a few short days ago when her coughing was so bad that she had a hard time sleeping at nigh again.
