IN THE ER!!!

Well, Miss K is still feeling pretty yucky. Her cough has been rough on her and because of her vocal chord cannot clear the mucous. I have talked to cardiology, ENT and her pediatrician because I have been worried about coughs and fevers.

Early this afternoon she she started crying and was laying on the floor next to me when all of a sudden she turned blue, her eyes rolled back and started to close and then she went limp. The Needless to say I called 911. While I was waiting for them to arrive, I put some O2 on her and the color came back to her face. She just laid on the couch, but could hardly keep her eyes open. The paramedics also noted the her left eye was a little more droopy than her right. I told them that at about 2:30 this morning that eye was watering and red. They said although it is no longer red, just droopy that it may be due to an infection or something more. She is also satting lower, but that seems to come and go depending on the congestion.

So needless to say, we are in the ER back at our house upon the hill. We aren't sure what they will do with her. I just don't want that to happen again. Everyone seems to think that the paralyzed vocal chord had a lot to due with what happened this afternoon. We will keep you all posted.
