Coco Puff the Magic Dragon




A few weeks ago Coco had pneumonia. We thought we had treated it and that she was all better. About a week after she was done taking her medicine she started having the same symptoms--lethargic, fever, coughing, etc. So, I took her to the doctor and she was treated again with breathing treatments. We were sent home with a nebulizer and medicine. The mask is a purple dragon which is really cool to Coco. When she breathes the albuterol smoke puffs out the sides of her dragon mask. Hopefully, we will be done with treatments this Sunday. She isn't thinking it's so fun anymore.

We just did that with Kenzie and Elsie. They thought it was fun for about 2 days. Then they were over it.

Poor girl :( Zoe had pneumonia when she was about 9 months old, and she just couldn't kick it for about 5 months. It was horrible! Hope she gets feeling better soon!

Oh dear. That is a cute way to do the albuterol treatments though. Hope she's feeling better soon.

So sorry Coco was sick. I hope she is feeling better!

So sad....much better than having to hold her down and hold the mask over her face...oh that kind of sounds like child abuse. Really that's what the dr told us to do. Ask Brooke and Lila about it.

Respiratory problems are NO FUN!!! I'm sorry she had to go through all that.

Oh no poor baby! I hope she's feeling better!

Coco, are you feeling better? How I hope so. It's no fun to have to have treatments, masks, and all of those things. I have to say though that you still look like a beautiful princess girl.
