I'm so sick today, I just don't feel like myself. I'm fighting my first case of pneumonia and today my blood sample tested positive for staph infection. Mom and Dad hardly recognized me, I am so swollen (although Mom thought I looked awfully cute with a little chub on me.) My urine output was much lower than usual today, so they held my last dose of indocin, the medication for my PDA. They say it is a common side affect. Yesterday, I was a bit twitchy and Mom thought that my seizures may be returning. They gave me a small boost of phenobarb, just in case. It could just be my irritability, I hate being sick. Today, they gave me an anxiety relieving drug, that really helped. I slept like a light. The highlight of my day was getting a visit from Aunt Pam, Uncle Steve, Grandpa Roger, & Grandma Linda. I can tell they really think I'm cute, and well, they're right.
