My college degree is in medical billing and medical administrative which meant a semester of both anatomy and medical terminology and disease and pathology. Add to that caring for a terminally ill parent for five years and anyone would come out handy in a medical crisis. I think I might have...

@ChooksNQuilts , what BEAUTIFUL boys! What kind of cross is the buff gentleman at the bottom of those pictures? @Folly's place He had an epi-pen; his condition was known. My mother in law was him and his brother, my nephews, while his parents were visiting family in Florida. We all got...

I love this! :lau My mother in law would disown me, though. She's mortified this happened on her watch and to say she doesn't handle teasing well is an understatement. Yeah, it was scary because I gave him his epi-pen while Face-timing with his mom (poor kids parents are in Florida) and he was...
