Hi everyone, Sorry I am so long in answering some of your posts but as you know today was Fathers Day and the kids just left and it is quiet again. Looking at everything that was said about Rider and his problem last night and today I believe that he is having the reverse sneezing and breathing so hard that he is collapsing his windpipe. The next time he does it I will close off his nostrils and rub his nose to see if that stops it and eases the irritation in his nose. Now do I have it right? You all have been so helpful for me and Rider and I am so glad it is not life threatening like I thought it was going to be. Blanche and Rider
