My son had a similar situation, inhaled some fluid, had him on
antibiotics for a week, but he was never in any real danger (sounds
like your daughter is in a similar situation). If your daughter is like
my son, have no fears - my son is a happy, healthy, 6 year-old with an
appetite most other parents would kill for their child to have...

GREAT! Good luck with everything, parenting is a great adventure!

Thanks for sharing,
