My two year old had picked up a small kids should of ash from fire place and dumped it all over himself ,he was wearing a long sleeve shirt and pants . I ran over to him as he was doing so and I didn t think to much of the hazards that he was in, I just dusted him off and took him inside to inspect him and callEd poison control .I watched him closely he slept fine but woke up congested and playing with happy spirt though out the day we laid down with him to sleep and he seemed to almost choke....that s were we are at at this moment ...any help could be saving a life..I really would like to know about if I should be rushing to the hospital
