Lydia is pretty ill. She was diagnosed yesterday with an infection in both ears, and bronchiolitis. The doctor suspects that the bronchiolitis is caused by RSV.
In any case, she is going back to the doctor today at 11:00 because her wheezing is worse, and I suspect that she is extremely dehydrated. In the past 24 hours she has maybe eaten 1/2 as much as usual due to inability to breathe and from coughing so hard that she vomits. She won't even try to eat now.
Needless to say, I am really worried. I wouldn't be surprised if we get sent to Children's Hospital to try and get her re-hydrated.
So if any of you out there are the praying kind, please say a prayer for my Lydia.
