Sounds like aspiration pneumonia, needs antibiotics asap!!
Baytril (animal form) or Cipro (human form) Some other antibiotics may work also.
Check with family friends and let us know what you come up with we can help you
with dosing. We will need a weight to dose.
The week's weight loss is concerning but IMO she would not have had AP for a week
as it takes them down and out faster then that.
How old is this baby, what have you been feeding and how feeding / with what?

FYI...
OP posted 10:45, I originally replied 10:58, I do not think it could be seen by OP.
This forum was started in introduction and somehow got put in moderation where only seen by admin.
Once realized I corrected it to be viewed and placed in Emergency, *email sent to OP asking to come back on.

*Edit: Thread link was included!

Where in Florida are you located? I’m on the east coast near Cocoa Beach. I have lots of meds and am willing to get them to you if we are close and can work something out. 🙂

One can only assume by this the reason why it's no longer an emergency and why they have not responded....
