We keep an inhaler, and xopenex (zop-en-ex) on hand for emergencies only! If a cough starts, I immediately take a small glass jar of distilled water. I then stir in a tbs of aluminum free baking soda. Stir this up well, and then take a medicine dropper (the kind the pharmacy gives you. Usually plastic with a bright colored topper that you can remove to wash it.) full, 5 ml and squirt it into the nebulizer, and then add another medicine dropper, 5ml of distilled water. Place the mask over child and allow them to sit with it on for 15-30 minutes. Really as long as you can. This will help open up the airways and will help “sneeze” out the mucus that is causing the weezing. If your child has had asthma struggles for a few days over and over, you will need to do this 3 times a day until the symptoms clear up. Of course, USE the inhaler if it is an emergency in the interim.

NEXT: If the dr. wants to put your child on prednisone or prednisolone (steroid) get a 16oz glass of distilled water and drop 2 drops of organic, oregano oil. MUST be 100% therapeutic and MUST be able to be ingested. MAKE sure you are diluting this down just as it is written. Oregano, when too strong, can burn and it is very painful. Also, will long term use, for those of you taking oregano oil day after day after day, even in capsule form, can cause damage to the liver. Stir this up and then, use a medicine dropper, and just as above with the baking soda, use one dropper of of oregano oil / water mixture, and one medicine dropper of plain distilled water in the nebulizer. This will open the airways as an inhaler and as a steroid would and helps keep them open. Do this once a day for about 15 minutes, and the baking soda the other two times a day.

Finally: When you know a cold is coming on and you don’t want it to aspirate the asthma, you can purchase caloitil silver at a health food store. Use 10ppm and use it full strength in the nebulizer.

This has brought so much healing to our son and without all of the side effects! We will be praying for you and your family, for peace and that God would bring you wisdom.

My son also meets with a chiropractor, to make sure his lugs and ribs are in alignment, and he is experiencing food allergies, which is common, with asthma. He is having
acupuncture right now and we are seeing huge results!

Finally, we use Standard Process supplements on a regular basis. Pneumetrophin PMG would be awesome to help the lungs, and for something when cold symptoms rear their ugly heads, Congeplex. Happy researching!

I also like to put a bowl of menthol crystals in water on top of a radiator to act as a humidifier at night!

Cheers

Hoping someone has some input for this. Thank you.
