The Buckingham Blog

Last week was a right off, hence no posts here.  Nothing to say, we did nothing.  Krystal worsened as the week went on, didn't get better.  By Thursday she had lost the seal like bark but was really struggling to breathe, so I called the emergency doctor and they saw her within 30 mins which was impressive.  

After checking her chest & lungs were clear (they were) he looked at her throat and announced his diagnosis.  At the start of the week she'd had croup, which is what I thought anyway, and while her immunity was down, in crept a secondary throat infection.  This infection was narrowing her airway making it sound more serious than it was.  Which explains the distinct lack of eating also.

She started antibiotics and by the end of the day you could see a difference, and the next morning was like a different wee girl again.  She's still on them now but seems ok again.  Well ok-ish.  Off the back of being allowed to pretty much eat what and when she fancied when ill, she's throwing a wobbler when we put her at the table just now and refusing to eat.  That would be fine if she still felt unwell or something, but she'll happily eat anywhere else. 

Friday was Comic Relief or Red Nose Day and Kory was to dress up for nursery, here he is before we went.  He disappeared into the playroom and emerged like this, I just about wet myself laughing!   

My wound is healing well, the week was so hard asall Krystal wanted wascuddles and I couldn't lift her up for them or have her on my left side at all.  Certainly made for a challenge looking after her, myself and Kory yapping like a budgie as usual!  He even says himself "I'm yapping like a budgie Mummy, amn't I?"  YES!!

Not got many photos really, but here are a few randoms from the camera card that haven't made it to the blog yet.
