The wrong way to start the day....
Anyone else have problems similar to this?
Our 9 year old has strep throat and is taking breathing treatments twice a day for it. This morning the following conversation took place:
Wife: "Honey, wheres the nebulizer?"
...
Me: "It's in the nebulizer locker filed under N"
Wife responds with dead silence and the proverbial look that could kill.
Yep, it was definetly something I said.

Seems like a logical place to me. Yeah, I get that look a lot too.
Now that was funny!
On the other hand, strep throat is NOT. I had it as a kid, and then it caused Glomerulonephritis--which can be a sequalae of Strep throat. Missed a semester of school--would have missed two but summer came, 4 months on bed rest, two years restricted activity. I was lucky--in the 10% who didn't get permanent damage. It's the leading cause of kidney transplant in young males. For Gosh Shakes, take care of that Strep!
Well, I thought it was funny ....
Breathing treatments for strep? When I was a kid, they wrote a 10-day prescription for Amoxycillin and that was it. But then, it's been so long since I've had strep I've forgotten what it's like.
Mike, it must be a "guy thing" that women won't understand.
IR, thanks for that heads up. Bing married to an RN means the unusual is ALWAYS expected, so I figure we'll be safe as regards complications.
Anthony, the breathing treatments are more for the cough thats accompanying his strep. It's almost impossible for me to catch it so I stay a little fuzzy on details sometimes. The "impossible" part is due to having had my tonsils removed, seems that insures my immunity.
Whenever my husband asks me where something is, I pretend I'm sleeping. Kinda obvious when he just saw me with my eyes open, eating an apple. Or, just tell him it's on the desk in the kitchen because that's where everything ends up in our house. Sometimes I get lucky and find money, but not in large amounts. Unfortunately.
Hope your little one is feeling well soon!
