Happy Anniversary!

Kelly and I are celebrating our 2nd anniversary....in Children's Hospital! Yep. For the past 5 days, Brooklyn has been inconsolable with a gut-wrenching cough and gagging reflex. We thought it might just be heightened acid reflux so we put some rice cereal in her milk to help things. It didn't help. With her cough getting worse each day, yesterday was the tipping point.

We rushed over to the emergency room at Children's Hospital where B was given lots of x-rays and oxygen treatments in order to figure out what the heck was going on. She's been seen by just about every department at Children's and so far the most likely culprit is aspirated pneumonia -- a bug she may have contracted from having a nasty case of acid reflux. The oxygen treatments have worked wonders and Brooklyn is FINALLY acting like herself again after a very long night at Children's.

She has another group of tests today, so be praying that the doctors can figure out what is the dealio with our little muffin. Off to celebrate two years of wedded bliss with my lovely bride over a bowl of inpatient Froot Loops!

  1. Happy Anniversary, I'm sure there are 100 other places you'd rather be, but none of them without Brooklyn!

    I have friends celebrating their 7th today and it's our dog's 6th anniversary with us, so June 15th is a good day.

    Hoping Brooklyn can go home soon.
