October 2nd 2011
We woke up to a sunny morning. Our favorite day of the week. I am still coughing a lot and not feeling a 100%. Our plan is to go see my pediatrician on Monday and make sure my blood work is okay. I am still taking antibiotics since we were never sure what exactly it was that got a hold of me in Texas. My parents are pretty sure it is a virus. We hung out at the hotel and rested up from our long journey home.
The following morning we went to CIMA. Dr. Castro, says from looking at my blood work that it is a virus and even though I should not be taking antibiotics I have to finish the course and stay on them for another week. We left on Tuesday to go home. I am still taking in oxygen because my chest and lungs are congested. The trip home went smoothly we arrived home at 5pm. It was so good to be home. I finally get to sleep in my bed, well not really as I have become accustomed to sleeping with my mom and dad again but I know it will not be long before I am back in my bed. I always like sleeping with them when I do not feel good as they make me feel safe.
When we were in San Jose , we called Sofia my physical therapist, but unfortunately she as well caught a nasty cold and is having to recuperate before coming back to Delicias to work with me.
When we were in Texas, my mom talked to an alternative doctor and she suggested to my parents to cut out Pediasure and I have recently started taking Super D omega 3 Cod Liver oil. It seems to be doing me some good as I feel like I am getting better faster.
Home is where the heart is and we are all so glad to be here. Sofia came back to work on Friday and we started our workout routine slowly but surely as we are both just getting better. I am ready for next week so I can get my routine back and hopefully will start feeling better soon!
