25. Dear rbnyc. I had trouble breathing as a child--asthma, pneumonia.

The most comforting thing to me was when my father picked me up and carried me around the block at night, talking to me, holding me. I know the medications I received were helpful. I think your child needs to be comforted. Pick him up and hold him and let him know everything is okay. Don't worry about the carpet. If you worry, he will worry. He needs to be reassured that he doesn't need to worry about anything. This little guy is very sensitive. Comfort him, help him get over his fear. I think he is picking up on your fears.
