Needles anyone?

Jade has had some trouble for sometime coughing at different times of the year, especially during harvest. This fall she stayed with my brother and SIL one night as well as with a friend of her's and both my brother and her friend's mom asked me if Jade was OK because she coughed all night! So, after hearing that, I took her in and we proceeded with allergy testing. After multiple questions, the fun began with 19 shots in her arm....see picture to the right...no tears...just a smile on her face. 

After waiting to see if she "reacted" to any of the various injections, step 2 was injected strong "solution" of such things as oak tree, horse, grasses...

When all was said and done she had a total of 47 injections...OUCH!  and we were told she was allergic to Oak and Cottonwood Trees as well as house dandur, and various grasses!
