Hi Deborah,

They only play soccer in the spring - otherwise it's boy scouts that keeps them busy.

I can say that whatever this "bug" is that is going around is particualarly hard on kids lungs - the ambulance was at Austin's school a day before I took Austin to the ER. They were there because another girl was having an asthma attack. At the doctor's office they said there is a lot of this going around.

From what I saw on the x-rays infiltrates looks more like white lines
branched out in the lungs like tree limbs whereas when Dean had pneumonia the x-rays looked more like the while was "pooled" at the bottom and/or sides of the lungs. I'm guessing that infiltrates just means the visible abnormality in a chest x-ray - anyone have a better definition?

Hi Leah Ann,

Thought I would just mention this in case it applies. If your sons have been playing sports on ball fields maintained in the usual toxic fashion, saturated with herbicides and pesticides, you probably are aware how much dust they (and you parents looking on) inhale game after game after game. Some of us have observed parents and kids getting sick like clockwork every summer with asthma and other respiratory problems directly related to sport field dust. And most parents shrug it off--I can't understand that.

The term infiltrates is troubling--what does that mean exactly?

Deborah
