a little scare
so on Monday night at about 10:30 Rozalyn had woken up so I brought her out with John and I to comfort her back to sleep. Everyone knows that's a big mistake becuase she was wide a wake. Any way we were eating some cashews and Rozalyn wanted some so John gave her some little pieces. about 2 min later she started coughing so I thought she had a piece stuck in her throat so we gave her something to drink and she didn't want it. so I took her in the bedroom with me and she started crying and I thought it was because she didn't want to go back to sleep. Then I noticed that her face was swelling up and realized that she was having a allergic reaction to Cashews. So Jonh and I loaded her up in the car and went to the hospital. It was kinda funny to see John try and move so fast because as you know he's a crippled. Any way I broke a few laws getting to the hosiptal and in the mean time Rozalyn through up in the car. I have to say I no longer have the new care smell. It now smells like vomit. YEA! We got the hospital and I took her in the they saw her with in a few mins but it took the doctor about twenty to get there and decide how much medicine to give. All in all it took about a half hour for the medicine to kick in and for her calm down. Needless to say everything is all good now and we have to carry a Epipen with us at all time and she can no longer have nuts any kind of nuts for a year. We also have and appt with and allergist to find what else she might be allergic to and the extinct of it. Both John and I were worried about the whole thing and we didn't know but I guess that's what you find out as parents.

That John is causing all sorts of trouble isn't he!? Just kidding;) That is scary and is going to make things a little tricky in the future. I hope that it is only cashews and not other nuts too. My nephew had that same think happen and it was only cashews so there is hope. Best of luck to you in figuring it all out.
