Ten hours earlier

It was the kids last week of school before christmas. The shops all had their decorations up, and the boys christmas lists hung on the fridge. They usually get almost everything. Christie has a great job and I love being a nurse, (in my spare time I could go help sara with the new babies) so we had arrganed our scheduale so that one of us works late while the other takes time off, and then we switch. It was my week off and cold season so I was really apprehensive about sending Rowan to school. But he wanted to go to the christmas party and they were makeing cards for each other. And anyways Emmy had already caught so I gave his puffer and some tissues and his coloring book (because he has to stay in at recess during the coldest monthes) and told him to try not to sit near the kids who have colds. I wish I'd said that to all my kids. At lunch time I was unsucessfuly trying to get Emmy to rest.



 She couldn't lie down because her nose was stuffed up and it meant to breathe, she would need to take out her paci, and the look on her face informed me that wasn't about to happen. I then picked up the ringing phone to discover that Collin was sick and I needed to pick him up. So I bundled Emmy into the car and picked Collin up.



He did have a temperture, and their docter had told me pennicillin would help, so I got it out and gave him some. He fell asleep on the couch before the others turned up. And I had a feeling they had all gotten it. So I made orange and cranberry juice with toast for snack instead of milk and cookies. Upon getting off the bus Joel and Jonathan then told me their throats hurt and Rowan showed me all the pictures he colored.



 Rowan ate some of the toast, and I put Joel and Jonathan in the living room with Collin. Jonathans temperture was 38c so I gave him some penicillan as well and went to check Rowans temperture to make sure he hadn't caught anything. I never even made it to the kitchen. Joel yelled for me saying that Jonathan couln't breathe.



 I tried to keep him breathing while Rowan called an ambulance.



Then the parmedics rushed in, surronding him. Rowan and Joel just held on to me, while I burst into tears.



 I should have kept track of who I had given it to before, I had never even thought to check if he was allergic. I just sat there, in the waiting room, wondering why I even deserved to be a mom.

[Glamily]

O.o i'm allergic to penicillian too..

[Devomuffins]

Aww, poor you, when did you find out?

[Medagic]

Eek!  First Rowan and now Jonathan???  How terrible!
I hope this works out okay...

[Glamily]

i've known since birth.. i got the allergy from my father.. he almost died as a baby when they gave it to him

[Devomuffins]

Yeah, my cousin is three he has the same thing. they found out when he was one.

[Devomuffins]

A nurse walked into the waiting room.
"You can see him now."
"Thank you." I was so happy that he was all right. The boys were all asleep, and Christie was dozing on the couch, so I walked in to Jonathan's room on my own. He was awake, drinking a cup of orange juice.
"Mommy!" he practically yelled when he saw me, spraying juice all over the blanket.



"Oh bunny," I hugged him carefully.
"I missed you, but the nurses are nice. Shelly told me about her new puppy when was having my needle."



Shelly giggled. I recognized her, she had gone med school with me. She walked over to fix Jonathan's IV.
"He's really sweet, you know." She smiled and walked out. I hugged Jonathan again. "Do you want anything baby?"



"Can momma Christie come see me?"
"Of course." It felt so good to feel safe again. And this time, I hoped it would last.
