This week has been NUTS! I actually connected with 4 different MDs to give the school side of the story (with signed releases). Amazing how it differs from what the parent and kid say...
AND I had a kid an emergent, undiagnosed anaphylactic reaction with Epi and 911.
Good times!

LOOK AT YOU GO!!
I have never felt more accomplished than I did after the Epi administration. The real pen makes a satisfying "thwock" on administration and the immediate giant gaspy intake of breath....priceless. The kid's and also mine. I was holding my breath.....

Goodness that's a lot!!
Go you for being a superhero with the Epi! I always tell staff that it could be the child you least expect, so we need to always be ready!

Good job! You have earned your weekend!
THIS is why I think we should have stock Epi. But we don't.
