Air and Cookies...........a good thing

Today I turned 39 and got the gift of breath....my asthma has been getting progressively worse over the last week or so...I had a scheduled appointment this morning with a Allergy and Asthma specialist which could not have come a day to soon...last night was a very difficult night so we set off to the doctor this morning after 2 hours at the doctors office we learned that I was breathing at about a 45% lung capacity after a nebulizer treatment at the doctors office and 4 different types of steroids and another 5 day dose of antibiotics we are hoping to get my asthma under control.......I was breathing pretty good after the nebulizer treatment but my chest is starting to tighten up again and my cough is coming back....it has been about a month since this first began....so I am tired of not feeling well...it really has only gotten kind of scary the last week or so after my last doctors appointment and round of antibiotics really did not do the trick....so we will keep you posted....its been a very nice birthday....Collin brought home flowers this morning and we went out to lunch while waiting for the meds from the pharmacy...we have birthday cookies in the oven....and enjoying simply quality family time at home........
