I have serious asthma-I mean serious--I keep my inhaler --In my pocket--really close! I have driven myself to the nearest hospital for oxygen before--I know about allergies--to perfume, smoking, dust, the gasoline pump, fur, etc-
I have difficulty breathing, most all the time-just walking past the entrance to a store--where someone is standing outside smoking because they cant smoke inside is a killer!
I know the allergens are out there ...everywhere...any asthmatic knows that and is prepared. There is no way to get away from it...the pet fur is on the clothing of the person standing in front of you in line at the store.
But--I will, if I need to take Lillybelle inside places-tucked away in her purse, such as not to offend, bother, be an irritant to anyone. I dont bring her for anyone to see, but because she is my companion and she is thrilled to go
"anywhere" we go the park for a walk when we run errands, or when we are on vacation, we just can't leave her in the car if there is no patio to eat out on (we try to find places that have a patio)..sometimes its just unavoidable...not something done on purpose..to sneak around. She is just part of the family and on occasion we have to slip her into her purse for practical reasons.
Some of us love to bring our little babies and some dont...sometimes it depends on where you are in your stage of life and the thoughtfulness of both. |
