Got The Pneumonia Blues This Time

Last week, Gabby acquired a new cough from pre-school, and by early this week, everyone in the house was coughing. For the couple of day, Georgia and I had slight fevers and miserable coughs and wheezing. Georgia went to the Dr. (actually a nurse practitioner) who diagnosed "walking" pneumonia, prescribed a round of antibiotics (just in case) and an inhaler. Based on those results, Georgia took Gabby in (she has a cough still, but her lungs are clear), and I went to the Dr, who, after one listen to my chest said "pneumonia" and prescribed basically the same regimen as Georgia's. I was ordered to stay inside, and take it easy for a few days while it all kicks in, so no more beach for a while.
