Thanksgiving Anaphylactic Adventures

The Audio on this video isn't great so I added captions. So I've been getting these Allergy shot things on the basis that during Pollen season I lose roughly a weeks worth of work time to being incapacitated. I've been getting them for the last nine weeks and they've been going totally fine, but Yesterday something super weird happened. The doctors were at a loss to explain what the hell happened (considering it had been fine for last nine weeks). I asked them were the symptoms consistent with maybe getting a massive dose of the pollen extract by mistake? They agreed, but reluctantly, they obviously didn't want to immediately jump to one of their co workers making a mistake. But, Occams Razor, it's the simplest explanation for what happened. I had actually left the hospital and was at a junkyard when I started getting the symptoms, it was a short drive, but kinda stressful in light of not being able to breathe or see properly https://imgur.com/a/zcxeJXd To compound the problem those allergy shots are injected into a muscle specifically so they'll hang around longer, which was why the Epi-pens weren't being as effective as they normally are (they were worried the epi-pen would wear off and the symptoms would return). Anyway, that's how I started my Thanksgiving this morning! When I got home I made this much funner video with the kids: https://youtu.be/dYSmWied9pc (although I would like to add that the kids were in on it and Christopher's sobbing at the end is just good acting on his part).
