Smiley Has a Cough and Size


For the past three weeks, Smiley had a cough that would appear sometimes when he tried to go to bed and always when trying to fall back asleep if he woke early in the morning.

We visited a nurse.  He has a small amount of fluid in his right lung lower lobe: walking pneumonia.  Probably viral, given his young age.

He did get measured.  Now he weighs 40.8 pounds and is 44.9 inches tall.  (Since April he has lost a pound and grown an inch.)
