Turns out poor Tesla has pneumonia. This morning, when we woke to find Tesla still lethargic and sick, we really wondered. I took her to Kaiser last Sunday and they thought it was a cold that this year is really hard and long. But considering Tesla hadn't eaten for over 4 days, I was concerned. When I emailed work that I couldn't come in yet again, a co-worker worried she might have pneumonia based on the symptoms I was describing.
Sure enough, the doctor at Kaiser today listened to T breathing and immediately said that's what she had. We have anitbiotics now, but it'll take more than a day to start winning the battle in T's lungs. Ugh. Poor girl. A whole week feeling like crap, not knowing why. A whole week with no swings, no play with granny, no tricycling around, no food! Her eyes look so listless, it's heart-breaking. I can't wait for her to wake up soon, and say, "applesauce??" which she usually does as she runs down the hallway. I miss my baby...
