Allergy Appointment for Nathan

We took Nathan to the allergy doctor at UW Children’s Hospital to find the cause of his hives, eczema, and tummy upsets. For a 15 minute doctor appointment at 11 am, I left at 9:20 and returned at 4 pm. Oh yes, take all 3 kids for the fun of "prick him till we get reaction."

After gathering all the results and dealing with all the tears, the doctor recommended we get an Epi Jr pen in case of severe reactions.

So, the doctor says to me: “I am giving him a Rx for Epi pen Jr. You would only give this to him if you see a severe reaction and suspect he cannot breathe. Reserve it for the "Oh my G-- he is not breathing moment."

Now, we are not allowed to take God's name in vain in our house. David says as the doctor as he is leaving. "Excuse me Mr. doctor, please don't say oh my G - - . It is a bad word!" To which this doctor replied: “You are right. I shouldn't say that. I am sorry.” To which David says: “Ok. I forgive you.”

Case closed - world saved - everyone back on track of obedience.

David you are my hero.
