ER visit

We took G to the ER this evening. Her cough is just horrendous. They are adding Zithromax to our slew of drugs. They didn't seem to have a lot of confidence that it would help us reverse this latest downward spiral. They said she may require IV steriods. Heaven help us. Our experience with IV steriods last December when she was hospitalized was horrible. G stopped talking to us entirely. She cried almost non-stop. She was incoherant and confused. Her reaction was so extreme that they stopped administering them. They weren't helping her anyway. I'm starting to think about what I need to pack to head back to Milwaukee.

Edie (and little G!), I'm so sorry to hear about this most recent bout of illness! Please call if you come to Milwaukee if we can do anything, anything at all! If you need an errand run, if you need a friend for G (Seth), if you need someone to just be there...whatever. Hopefully, you won't have to come. But if you do...
