    Oh no, poor Miss Indy, she really is in the wars at the moment, poor little poppet

    I hope that she can stay off the O2 overnight and that she is back home again very soon and crossing my fingers that this is the only admission this year xxoo

    Thank you for the support and get well wishes
    Woohoo!!! Home today
    She lasted last night with out the oxygen and we have her ventolin spread out to 3 hourly!!
    So she has the prednisolone (steroids) for 2 more days, 3-4 hourly ventolin and her usual preventor (flixotide 2 puffs twice daily)
    He said that he totally trust my judgement and I do a wonderful job handling it and I know when to bring her in...which is reassuring to hear.
    We will follow up in a few weeks with an appointment.
    He said he would love to be able to say that she won't be admitted again this winter but given her history there is a high possibility she will
    I am hoping she can prove him wrong.

    My little princess is still sick
    She was still sick and coughing so hard she turned dusky around the mouth and threw up so three days after getting out of hospital I went back to my GP and pushed for a chest xray.
    It turns out she has at least bronchitis, very possible pneumonia
    It has been nearly 3 weeks now and she still has a horrid cough, lots of phlem and snot.
    Her appetite is almost non existent and she has lost over 1.5kg...just when we got her over 11kg she drops back to under 10kg.
    It is hard watching her sick for so long.
    Not a good start to winter and her lungs will take some time to recover.
