All in Her Head

Peeper's cold, that is.

Actually, what the doctor said yesterday is that it's "all in her nose," meaning that the infection / congestion / yuckiness has not moved down into her lungs, nor has it gotten to her ears or throat.

Whew!

Basically, her nose and, I would assume, sinuses are pretty snotty, and she most likely feels crappy.

She also said that it's most likely viral and doesn't need antibiotics, and seemed glad to hear that my version of it has been so mild.

She expects it to clear up in four or five days, and that she'll probably be okay for surgery, but that the surgeon and anesthesiologist will make that call based on her condition on Thursday, when we do her pre-op testing.

Oh, and she weighed ten pounds, exactly.
