I have expressed before how difficult I find being a mother to adult children are but here I go again....
Big Boy is an Asthmatic and it does not take much for him to become sick. For the past months we have started allergy shots to help with his Asthma in hopes that it will reduce such flare ups. We found a doctor to administer the shots in Kansas so while he is away at college he is able to continue. I have tried over and over to explain how dangerous this disease can be. People die from Asthma... but what does Mom know she is an over possessive worry wart.
Austin has worked non-stop on his 32 Roadster to be ready for the Grand National Roadster Show next weekend. He has been living in Mira Loma at the shop working round the clock. The Shop as they call it is surrounded by farm land and him sleeping in this environment has not been healthy. Friday night he ended up in Urgent Care unable to catch his breath. After two shots and some medicine he was sent home. Yesterday I noticed he was not getting any better. I begged him to let me take him to Emergency and of course I was over exaggerating once again. He headed to the Shop and began to cut out his Upholstery and felt terrible. Not wanting to wake Pat or I up he called Brittney and she said "I am driving you to Emergency now".
He has since been admitted and will remain there for the next few days. He has Pneumonia and is very sick. The doctor lectured him and told him how lucky he was and that his lifestyle needs to change. I pray that he listened to what was said. His health is in his hands now and all I can to is love and support. So frustrating to be the mother of an adult child who thinks he knows himself best.
The car will not be fininshed and he has so much to get done before he heads back next weekend. He will hate the fact that I wrote about him today and shared this photo but I just needed an outlet and this is where I come.
Enjoy your Sunday my loving Family and Friends....
