The 'Flu'

New continent, new country, new house, new school, new GERMS! We are fighting to  remain strong with all that we are being exposed to. The boys continue to struggle with what is referred to as the 'flu', but what we would call a 'common cold'. Nothing major, and all medicines seem to be keeping the asthma and vertigo in control, but we also can't seem to locate the source (unless it is just respiratory germs). Our thoughts also land on the new food they are being exposed to and if the increase in 'milk' products is playing a role. We still have not located any other forms of milk. Today, I went to a new store with my teacher and I found out that they make the almond powder that I can hydrate and ring through a cheese cloth to create our own almond milk. May have to do that if we don't see some changes!

While I have already shared about our medical experiences, here are a few pictures of the boys and their ailments. 
 Snuggles on the couch as they are coughing non-stop. 


 A visit to the pulmonologist - clear lungs - meds are working!

The nebulizer was taken out of the closet and utilized to give some relief! 


Zane continues to do a nasal rinse daily and has had to take his Vertigo medicine a few times. 

Both still are full of energy, just tired of coughing, getting better, and then getting another cold! Please send healthy vibes their way!!
