An update on Pristine’s asthma:

Her last nebulizer session was last Friday, July 11. After that, all of us are able to sleep peacefully. Thank God the wheezing and coughing spells has stopped. Until two days ago when at 3 am, she was awakened by asthma again. Then last night at 2:30 am. Only five nights of bliss.

What gives? Why does it happen at the crack of dawn?

During midday, she is perfectly fine. Clear breathing, no cough or colds and playing normally, just like her old pre-asthma self. What happens in the dead of the night? I am totally clueless but still I have to wake up and tend to her, give her the inhalers so she can breathe normally and sleep back.

These are times when I wish I had a medical degree to even have a slight idea what’s going on inside my child’s body. You could tell me to relax and accept the fact that my child is asthmatic but I guess I am still in denial. She didn’t have asthma before and now, 5 years after her birth asthma invades just like that?
