Well, Alli's cold took a turn for the worse yesterday. We did a walk-in clinic at 5:00 last night for a breathing treatment. They diagnosed her with acute bronchitis, but they did send her home (rather than the hospital!) The clinic doctor prescribed prednisone and antibiotics as well, but the pharmacy did not get the prescription, and the clinic was closed (Alli was the last patient) so we haven't started the drugs, and I don't know that they are needed. Ralph is staying home with her today, and will call her regular doctor to see if he wants to see her too, and if he thinks she needs an antibiotic. She is doing okay this morning. She obviously feels better - she was up at 5:15 this morning, and is in giggling watching TV, but she is still having issues with her breathing. We ran the humidifier in her room all night, too. Poor thing!
