Same. A few years ago my son went into the ER because he was having difficulty breathing. We live near Napa where the wildfires were happening and they gave him a breathing treatment. He was fast asleep and the treatment shot his heart rate up to 160 and NO ONE MENTIONED IT AS A SIDE EFFECT OF THE TREATMENT. I was panicking looking for a nurse but I also didn’t want to leave him. After awhile a nurse was spotted and said he was ok. They transferred him to another hospital for observation. But man, scary stuff. Never felt so helpless. He was only 5.
Holding my limp child in my arms. She was fine, but it was the worst 30 seconds of my life.
Jesus… As a dad myself, this is my recurring nightmare. May I ask what was wrong?
Fell off some playground equipment onto her head. “Only” knocked out cold, but in that moment, it seemed much worse.
Yeah, that’d do it.
