He was turning blue, every joint swelling up and his throat was closing. I was so scared and it was taking the paramedics forever so I gave him an adult benadryl - it was the only thing I had on hand. They said it was the only thing that kept him alive until he got to the hospital :( He had to stay 4 days in the children's hosp. He looked like someone tied ropes around every part of his body ...he was that bruised from the swelling. I write in RED 'deathly allergic'. It is something you will never forget.Melissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16682426576342129448noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1457430229512956956.post-86339401447650620692011-04-26T12:19:08.600-04:002011-04-26T12:19:08.600-04:00I think Mother's often 'feel' when som...I think Mother's often 'feel' when something is wrong.<br /><br />I'm glad you stood your ground.<br /><br />I can't even imagine how scary that phone call must have been for you all!<br /><br />Thanks for sharing this thoughtful and thought (and emotion) provoking link with us.<br /><br />A+Jennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12462124067637610359noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1457430229512956956.post-69831475286205915412011-04-25T20:39:00.753-04:002011-04-25T20:39:00.753-04:00This hurts my stomach!!!!

Dr. said no way and talked me out of it, though I didn't give it to her anymore at that time. Last year at 5 she was given one dose and the same thing happened, her throat started closing up. She was fine but NEVER again, wish I had listened to my little voice!!Lizhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12935634775093828607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1457430229512956956.post-58405150433525429112011-04-22T20:59:04.206-04:002011-04-22T20:59:04.206-04:00Mother Knows Best.
