vaccine

[Guest guest]

has been sick this week. Came home from school

Tuesday with a fever, ran a low grade fever until

Thursday am. Developed a cough Wednesday which seemed

to get better. She begged to go back to school today,

which I allowed her to do against my better judgement.

I sent a note to her teacher letting her know I didn't

think was near 100%, and to keep her quiet at

recess. Anyway, they called me to pick her up at 9 am,

her cough had worsened, and told them she needed

to go home. I gave her some medicine when she got home

and over the next couple of hours her cough worsened,

but no fever. Off to the doctor we go, and she has

pneumonia. This is the second time in just over 2 years

that she has had pneumonia. Doesn't this put her at a

higher risk, and isn't there some kind of vaccine for

pneumonia?
