[...] Knowing there is a cause, and possibly a cure, made The HOT Fuss!™ so much easier to cope with last night. And I won’t say anything else about last night, lest my bravado let loose another round of karmic ass-kicking. [...]

Send karma over here; I feel like a fight.

My first born, my son, used to do this high, squeaky breathing thing when he was a newborn. We wrote it off as a quirk. He stopped doing it but now he has asthma. I always wonder if the two are related, but he also had fierce eczema until he was three so I really don’t know.

I’m sorry about this but hopefully the good doctors at St. Louis will help out Shaggy.

I’ll send every bit of good karma your way!!! You deserve it!

I’ll be thinking good thoughts his way.

Nata has Asthma, has since about 6 weeks and I know the fear that it puts in you when something is wrong with your newborn. Hugs to you.

I am glad you are getting an expert’s opinion on this and not messing around with the vaunted C-U healthcare system. In the meantime we are all here to listen.

I was walking with my baby in the Baby Bjorn, when my daughter was just 4 months old, and I slipped on some ice cream that somebody had spilled on the concrete mall floor. Somehow I managed to fall straight down onto my knees without dumping her out. Had I done that without her in my arms, I probably would have landed on my face.

My husband slipped on a mossy river bank a few weekends ago with our 9 month old son in the backpack and not strapped in. I was right behind them and saw my husband grab the baby’s hand just in time to keep his head from cracking open on the concrete embankment.

At times like those, you can’t help but think you’ve done something right.

I’m here believing it will even out, but not wanting to diminish how you feel. You’ve been too good to me and others not to deserve good karma.

Oh… thinking of you all. And Karma deserves a kick up the ass. That gig with the bathroom door was just uncalled for.

Keep us posted. Hoping it goes well.

Of course, if your child is ever in the hospital overnight, you can sleep with him there.
