Pneumonia






The scariest thing finally happened. Arnold got Pneumonia. None of us had been sleeping since Monday. We were up every 2 hours each night. I called Dr. C's nurse on Monday, but she said it was normal cold. The fever did not go away. They finally decided to see Arnold and prescribed drugs for him to take.

He could have started on the medicine 2 days earlier. He cannot go to school now. Biajee took yesterday off to stay home with him and took him to work today. We have so much going on with our lives lately. Dr. C said the pneumonia will go away in about a week and she would see Arnold next Wednesday for follow up check.

The little man's weight dropped below 20 lbs. He hasn't been eating well since Saturday. This is not a good sign. Biajee and I are very worried. All we can do for him now is to feed him a lot of water and keep him warm.

The weather here has been changing drastically. We went from yesterday's 70 degrees to today's 30 degrees. We'll not sleep for the rest of the week till Arnold gets better.
