Cough Scare

My little baby got me worried last night because of the wheezing sounds she made while sleeping. I was so paranoid that she might have asthma that I didn't sleep the whole night and monitored her breathing, fixing her sleeping position every now and then to make sure that her upper body is elevated.

So today I took a leave of absence to attend to my daughter. I called the clinic but the pedia's secretary told me that the Doc would only be in at around 5 pm. We went to Megamall first (clinic is very the place) to stroll just a bit, as well as buy her a walker. I dropped by National Bookstore to check out what's new and look for the book A New Earth, Awakening to Your Life's Purpose, but it wasn't available. I would have wanted to get myself a copy of this. Too bad. I got to buy me a pair of black jeans too. No shoes, sorry. I also wanted to buy the console I badly needed for our bedroom but I guess it's not meant for us because the barcode was constantly rejected by the cashier's whatever you call it machine.

5 pm came and so we headed to the clinic. Doc told me that Eanna's lungs were clear and maybe I was just too paranoid. He recommended that when she's sleeping, I can "nebulize" her but only using saline, no anti-asthma meds. I was relieved that little baby is not in danger of having asthma, although the doc said it's too early to tell whether she'll have asthma or not. I'll continue to pray hard she won't develop this sickness. I wouldn't want her to experience what I've been through as an asthmatic kid.
