little things that matter

i was facing the laptop earlier... was ready to jot down my thoughts when i heard the sound of coughing from where my nephew is playing PS2, it was so irritating so i looked, then i realized it was my nephew, alden coughing, coughing very hard... as if he was choking to death then he started rubbing his eyes. when i got up and approached him, he was scratching all over his body. alden is asthmatic. he was having an asthma attack. i then ran to papang's bedroom. i told them alden is having difficulty breathing. the next thing i remember, my husband kim, alden and i were off to a taxi going to the hospital. in the ER, he was given a shot of anti-histamine. then we waited for about 15 minutes until his pale lips turned pink again. when he oppened his eyes... he smiled and asked for a jollibee meal. in moments like this... i get to thank the Lord for the little things that matter.
