Happy Friday the 13th from the ER

Hello everyone! I waited until today to write an update thinking I would hopefully have some good news from todays pulmonologist appointment. We never made it to that appointment though. Olivia had a fever of 102.8 and was having difficulty breathing, so I brought her straight to the ER. You know it isn't good when 8-10 people rush into the room with you and they immediatly start an IV. We got here at around noon and are still sitting in the ER waiting for a room in the hospital at 7pm. Olivia has pneumonia, and will be staying until she is better. Hopefully not too long, but I want to make sure she is better before we go home. Currently they have started her on IV steroids and IV antibiotics and given her an additional inhaler. I will try to keep everything up to date as we get more information. As of right now, Olivia looks much better than when we got here so hopefully that improvement will continue.
