We had a lovely time in Cornwall, but it must be said that Anna was a bit under the weather by the time we were heading home. Monday we took her to the doctor and he prescribed some antibiotics. If you've ever been around when we've tried to give Anna oral medications, you know how much fun antibiotics three times a day are. Despite the medicine, she was still coughing awfully and running a fever. Wednesday we knew something was not right (sparing you the details) and took her to the emergency room to be checked out.
The short version of the story is that she has pneumonia and needs some oxygen to keep her blood oxygen levels up. The longer version of the story would involve details about the three different hospitals she's been in and the various specialists (consultants) who have been called in to see her. We're just glad she seems to be getting better and hope to get her back home in a couple of days.
It's a pretty stressful time for us, but I imagine we'll survive, once again.
