11/27- Pneumonia :(

Anya continued to vomit through this morning so we decided to take her in for IV fluids. Fortunately so..  Routine vitals while being brought in to the ER found that her oxygen levels were fairly low (pulse-ox read 85 where she is typically 98%).  They ordered chest x-rays and found trace evidence of pneumonia developing.  She's now on antibiotics and we'll just watch her closely for fever or rapid breathing and take her back in tomorrow and for the next few days to re-check her pulse-ox.  
 
We also hate to report she now weighs only 15lbs.  We've started to reintroduce foods this evening but her digestion rate appears very slow. 
 
Well, if nothing else, she's by far the prettiest sick little girl we ever seen (I may be bias).
