    DS was a lot younger onset but something I just remembered, we had to 'practice' with our face mask and spacer for a while when he wasnt having any trouble otherwise he would try to fight me off to give it to him, now he has no issue with his face being covered with the mask...

    Thank you all so much for replying. It really has made me feel so much better to read all your replies, and I feel a bit better informed.

    How do you all deal with the overnight fear factor? I mean, they said in hospital that asthma can come on really quickly- I feel like I want to just watch him all night to make sure he is breathing ok. As it is, I have the monitor back on, which I haven't used in a really long time. It did NOT help when I googled this only to read an article about a 5 year old who died in his sleep from an asthma attack....
