Well here is Makayla when she was in the hospital. She was there for a total of 4 days. When she was finally released Rob took care of her at home for a day and a half then I took Thursday and Friday off. It was some very long days. She was on 8 different meds and had to have a breathing treatment every 3 hours. On that Friday when I took her to the Dr. she got cleared to go back to school and had the breathing treatments lessened so she could go. After another week the Dr. finally gave her the OK that she was better. So now she's still on 6 meds, but only 5 more days left of the steroid. We have so much equipment for her I feel like a medical facility. She has been so good about all of this. She remembers her meds on her own (of course she knows not to take them without me there). She goes in about 2 weeks to see an allergy specialist. They have determined that her asthma is allergy provoked. So of course they will run tests on her. The tests they ran in the hospital show that she is allergic to dogs, cats, and wheat. The previous one showed dogs, cats, grass, and trees. They are saying I have to get rid of Toby. I'm not sure what is going to happen. Rob has offered to take him if need be. It's possible we could take him back after a year or two, if the allergy meds work. She's so upset about the dog, but we haven't made a decision yet.
