A brief battle with Asthma

Alicia was not feeling terribly well for a while, and was coughing quite a lot at night.The doctor identified a lingering chest infection, which was (relatively) easily removed with antibiotics. Sadly, this illness brought on a bout of asthma as well, which we needed to treat with an asthma pump/nebulizer kit. This worked fine for a couple of days, but the novelty soon wore off. We were eventually able to swap the whole cumbersome kit for a standard asthma puffer (and spacer and mask), which worked much better.

Asthma has cleared up now, and Alicia (as evidenced in photo two) is back to being her regular happy, messy self!
