Im pleased he is improving x

Thanks for letting us know hun, he's in the best place. Jax xx

Just phoned the ward his temp is coming down but his heart rate is still elevated so he is staying put for a little while longer Thanks all Sxx

No totaly agree with you Gwyn and the numbty will be off to the doc for a recheck Sxx

Steve don't mean to sound harsh or anything..please don't take this the wrong way....it can take one attack to become fatal. i would'nt want this to happen to anyone..but i'm affraid it does with such devastating circumstances. Gwyn xx

Hi Gwyn He has had 3 attacks in 17yrs he only needs his inhailer in an emergancy but coz he does not need it from one month to the next he forgets when its run out hence this mornings wee road trip Sxx

I have to say I wouldn't have done anything different Steve - so don't beat yourself up. Your sons wellbeing came first and that's totally natural. Hope you manage to sort it all out. xx

Steve....i would never call you stupid..you did what every parent would do in an energency situation....your priority at that time was your son..and every concerned parent would of done the same thing as you did..without thinking how many cans they had the night before...glad to see you got your son to the hospital safely and he's doing well. But the most inportant thing you need to be thinking about now is..your son..you say that he's never had a bad asthma attack like this one before..then you need to be discussing with the doctor the best inhalors to take to prevent this from ever occuring again...obviosly your son is showing signes that his asthma is getting worse..so prevention is better than cure...monitering your son's progress is most inportant also..their are lots of preventative inhalers that really do help...believe me steve my daughter grew up being a chronic asthmatic spent most of her childhood in and out of hospitals...not very nice for a parent to experience...when your child as difficulty in breathing...and by the way steve i think you did the right thing...even thow you may of broken the law in doing so. Hope your son makes a full recovery..and comes home soon. Take care all......Gwyn xx

Thanks Donna Yeh do the crime pay the fine, thats ok with me i dont mind what happens but i'm gonna kill the sod when he gets home for not telling me his inhaler had run out months ago Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr Sxx

Sort of similar happened to me Steve, but even so i lost my licence. Your not stupid, there for the grace of god. Good luck.

Your not stupid Steve ---just what all of us would do ---Son first---glad he's ok. What a shame about the coppers being there tho!!!!

I'm just glad it was 4am and not a bit earlier could of been a lot worse then mind an hour later and i would of passed i think Sxx

Steve hope everything works out hun. and I know ya don't do hugs but tough your getting one Jax xxx

Pleased that he is out of danger. Don't you think that, even if you had remembered the cans your first thought would have been to get him to hospital. Very unfortunate that the police should have been there and, after they caught your breath I suppose they had to breathalize you. Let's hope that the court will accept extenuating circumstances. Good luck, and in answer to your heading, no you are not stupid. Ann Glos

NO Steve you are NOT stupid--you did what anyone would have done under the circustances. I hope you son is better today. Take care C xxx

Ta Girls Im gonna phone the ward at 12 and see how he is ya know he has only ever had 3 attacks in 17yrs and all ended up in hospital sheesh. then i need to have a word with me legal person Sxx

Aww Steve what a situation to be in - even if l had remembered the cans l'm sure l would havedone the same thing - your son was ill and his life possibly in danger - those cops need to have a re-think and you should apeal. Take care. So pleased your son is doing well:o))))) Just think you may have to wait ages for an ambulance. jude sarf wales :o) x

Steve Hun As Ann has said dont beat yourself up over it....I would of done the same if was my son.. Do hope son is ok, very soon..(((((((((((((hugs))))))))))

Steve, I would not have thought either and just rushed off to the hospital....but thanks for pointing this out to us as we could all be in this position some time, although sorry you had to suffer the consquences..... Do you think that the circumstances will help at all considering you were rushing to a hospital, or will they not take that into consideration? I am very glad that your son is ok and that is the main thing hey... Salxx

Steve love you reacted on instinct i think we would have all done the same, so glad your lad is stable, I am on a course with a lady whose 10 year old girl died of an asthma attack a year ago tommorow, your lads safety was paramount Hugs Caz xxx
