J's Doctor visit today

She has yet another ear infection really bad in her left ear. He seems to think that her ear infections cause sinus infections which cause congestion which cause her cough. We can't give her the best antibiotic for sinus infections, Augmentin, because we have reason to believe she may be allergic. So, she got her first of 3 Rocephin shots today and we go see the ear, nose, and throat doctor soon to talk about putting tubes in her ears. (Finally!!!)

Dr. Parr could see how one would think she has asthma from how persistant her cough has been but instead it has just been caused by perpetual infections. This is good news because now we have a more definite course of action with a potential end result of a fine, normal, healthy, little girl! That's all we want! :-)
