Health Update

OK, so we went for the chest x-ray, which showed that Jazmine has bronchiolitis, or in layman's terms: inflammation of the bronchiole tubes. Her doctor said it's kind of like a childhood form of bronchitis. So she has her very own nebulizer here at home, and he's ordered for her to get lots of rest, drink a lot of juice, and eat soft things that will be easy to swallow (like soup). Jazmine's nebulizer mask looks like a fish, so she doesn't fight me too much on that. But as all you mothers know, getting a rambunctious 2 year-old to get a lot of rest or eat a lot of soup is no small task (especially the rest). For those of you with children who've been around her recently, do not worry. It is NOT contagious or communicable.
