I'm concerned about Avery, again. All week her color has been "off". She is very pale. I kept attributing it to her battling this darn sinus infection, but the infection is basically gone and she is still paper white. My mom hadn't seen her in a few days (mom was in the hospital) and when she saw her it was the first thing that she said. I've also heard it from her babysitter and a very close friend. My sisters hadn't seen her since Labor Day weekend (they live out of town) and couldn't believe how different she looked.
My mom suspects that she is working on one lung and I have to agree that it is a good possibility. They never redid an x-ray to confirm her lung reinflated because she was no longer wheezing and was so incrediably active at the hospital.
She is getting pediasure everyday and eating like she always has (she's just not much of an eater, but she has never been pale like this).
I'm going to call the ped. on Monday and request a chest x-ray and bloodwork. As much as I don't want to put her through anymore medical stuff right now, I know we have to. Even though she is healthy and active right now, if her lung isn't working properly we'll be behind the 8 ball the next time things go downhill.

I will keep Avery in my thoughts and prayers....
