The netiraptor, part 2

Julian's pediatrician had no idea what a netiraptor was, but she was very familiar with respiratory funk, which she confirmed Julian has, and sent me home with a nebulizer instead. Asthma doesn't run in my family, but my grandmother, GaGa, has a similar contraption that she uses every day. (The details of her losing the bottom half of each of her lungs is another story...) Now, little Julian gets to use one for the next few days to get rid of this reactive airway disease (also known by its undoubtedly much cooler acronym, RAD) he's developed. No, mom, he doesn't have asthma. Just a cold or allergies or something that made his air passageways constrict. Some misty albuterol should do the trick in no time, the doctor said.

She also said she loved us on What Not to Wear. :)

We used a a nebulizer at the office, and his wheezing cleared up right away. And by the time we got home, his sinus passages apparently had, too. Here's my artistic rendering.
