A night in the ER

Poor Lilah wasn't getting better.

Poor Lilah couldn't breathe.

Poor Lilah had to have an x-ray.

Poor Lilah is STILL very sick.

This is so much for an almost 11 month old!

After several breathing treatments, an x-ray, and too long in the ER...

Lilah is now on MORE medication...Here is her daily medication list:

• Lotemax
• Trusopt
• Pulmicort
• Albuterol
• Xoeponex
• Singulair
• Orapred
• Ammoxicillin
• Zithromax

AND...

After her ENT appointment today...

Lilah will be having tubes placed in two weeks.(This is the same ENT who did Sammie's surgery. I trust him and adore him!)

She is still very wheezy, she needs treatments round the clock, but there is HOPE in sight.

Lilah HATES to fall down, change positions, and be moved too quickly. Lilah has had so many ear infections that her vestibular system is having problems.

Balance is affected by your brain, your eyes, and your vestibular system. Lilah... being visually impaired and having many ear infections had two strikes against her. The tubes will drain the fluid behind her ear drums, help her sleep more soundly, and they will help her improve with her PT. Dr. Oliver said that there is a very good chance that Lilah will need repeat tubes and her adenoids out when she is about 18 months old. I am not quite prepared for that yet, and I know it does NOTHING for me to worry about something that hasn't happened yet, so....

I will focus on TODAY and getting Lilah 100% better before surgery in 2 weeks!

This Mama is focused...get her well, bleach the house, keep the kids healthy, and try to maintain sanity!

I look at my life as a journey...new adventures...in MOTHERHOOD...everyday!

Thanks for the constant prayers....

Lilah NEEDS them and we are so grateful for them!
