After school today, I thought that Jordan felt a warm, so I checked her temperature. It was 99.9 and her breathing seemed a little labored. She started coughing yesterday and the Delsym didn't really help her last night. I decided it was time to visit the doctor. He confirmed that she was wheezing and needed to use an inhalant to help get rid of the cough and open her bronchial tubes. He showed me how to use the air chamber in the office and Jordan played with it, too. She didn't fuss the whole time we were there and laughed at Dr. Wylie putting the mask over her face. How hard could this really be?
It can be like torture! Jordan hates it. We hate it. It sucks. It's so hard to know if she's getting what she's supposed to. But, it has to be working because she's already not coughing as much as she was last night. I'll just have to keep telling myself that it's worth it!
