Mark took Sawyer to the clinic today and during the administration of a drug he's had before he had an allergic reaction and went into anaphylactic shock. They had to use the crash cart to resuscitate him and he is currently in the pediatric ICU for observation until at least tomorrow. Needless to say, Mark is unsteady on his feet after the experience and I'm sure Sawyer is pretty scared as well. Say some extra prayers for us tonight - I'm heading to the hospital to be with them and my mom is going to stay at the house with our dogs.
The doctor said it's not unusual for patients to have an allergic reaction to a drug they've had before but it's unusual to have such a strong reaction.
As far as I know right now, everything is okay but it was certainly an unexpected scare.
We will be looking forward to hearing that all is well and you have some answers about what happened. Ugh, poor Sawyer (not to mention you and Mark.)
