All when they were little (2-4 years old), due to first asthma attack, bronchitis, serious allergic reaction and cut lip that needed stitches.

1 for seizure
1 for croup (but we left because it resolved there)
1 for an accident that happened when he was with a family member, but it was a non-event (he ate some of their medicine)

DD, 11: twice (bronchiolitis as an infant, severe strep at 5)
DS, 9: twice (anaphylactic peanut reaction at 5, needed stitches at 6)
DS, 6: 0 (knock wood - he’s the daredevil of the three, so I’m guessing his time will come)
