Hospital now.: If you have a six year old who has been sick with a respiratory infection for a week and is now feeling short of breath you have no time to lose. This is an emergency. Take her to a hospital now. If you have emergency services there then call for an ambulance. When little kids get short of breath they can get tired out and stop breathing altogether. Best to be safe. Log out and go to hospital now.
