My 12 year old son has asthma. Right now it is flaring. Even though we have had testing, we still don't know what the trigger is but he hasn't had much trouble for almost a year now but now it's back. We are trying to keep away from anything and everything we can that may be making it flare. He is using his medicine but it is getting to a point where he is needing more and more. Our next step is the hospital. That is not something we want to have to do. He has been in there before. Once in 2011 and once in 2012. It was horrifying. My son has very deep veins, you can't see them and they are very hard to find. The times he has been in there the needle had to be replaced many, many times because they couldn't get it to stay in. The last time they had to call in a Neonatal flight nurse to do it and even she still had trouble. It has traumatized him so to speak and the very thought of going in again terrifies him. I can't bear the thought of him going through that again. I am praying that we don't have to go to the hospital and put him through that. I am asking for prayer for a complete healing for him please. Our God is the great physician. He can do what no meds and no person can do! Thank you all so much! May God bless you all!!
