Marley in The ER


Inhaler which gives her, her medicine at home.


this tube gave her oxygen



11 weeks almost 12


not to happy she was very tired but could not sleep.




looks like a scuba mask, this gave her oxygen as well but it was harder to get it to where she would breath it in.


For the past couple days Marley has had a bad cough and a very runny nose. I called a nurse at Pomerado and she said not to worry but if symptoms got worse to call her back. Sunday evening we started to hear Marley wheezing. it was not too bad though and my mom said i should go to the doctors the next day in the morning. Well when i went home that night ready to go to bed, i heard Marley breathing and the wheezing had gotten even worse. I called the nurse and told her what was going on and she said i should take her to the ER right away. so i called my mom and picked her up and we arrived at Pomerado Hospital between 11:30pm and 12:00am. Marley had her oxygen checked and it was good. but they still gave her a little mask to breath out of. Then they gave her some medicine to help open her tubes and breath easier. Marley had some X-Rays taken of her chest to look at her lungs and s nose swab to see if she had a virus. When the doctor came in to let us know what was going on we where told that Marley had Brochiolitis. She also had a little bit of liquid in her lungs and if she gets more the Brochiolitis could turn into pneumonia. We left the hospital around 4:30am and tried to get some rest. Marley is now doing OK she is still coughing and wheezing from time to time, and she is still congested,but she is not getting worse which is good. Your prayers are welcome, hopefully Marley will get better soon. i miss my happy little girl.
