A member asked:
My wife is taking my daughter to the hospital she has broken out in hives and her throat is closing on her?

Hope she's ok: Hope she gets there quickly and safely. If the hospital is more than about 5 minutes away, it's better to call 911 and have the firemen come with emergency treatment. That's because it's hard for the average parent to drive safely when her child is sitting next to her, unable to breathe. Firemen hopefully can get to one's location, within 5 minutes. As always in life, it's a judgement call.
