Just A Cold

Teresa has had a cold for a few days and it was not getting any better so we headed up to CHOP this morning for a check up . 


The cold is causing her heart function to decrease and her lungs to be wet .   So to try and alleviate these problems she was started on a new medicine today .  Instead of staying in the hospital and possibly catching another nasty bug we came home and will return to CHOP  on Friday . 

Even though this cold has made her VERY tired and her breathing very labored ( her O2 is dropping to 62 when she plays ),  it has not stopped her .  She is like the energizer Bunny , she just keeps on going .  She does not want to miss anything . 

Today was Spa  day in the clinic !  She gave both NP's  a manicure including Steve .   She loves him !

Celebrating the little things in life are so rewarding !

  5. How DO they DO that? Keep on going when the O2 drops. The resilience is amazing. I can't imagine there is anyone who isn't Teresa's friend. What a smile!
