My husband has allergies as well, but as he gets older, they seem to be well under control with
the latest medications. He has refused doctors’ advice to “get rid of the cats” for forty years.
I would have said, “Get rid of our ‘kids?’ Are you nuts?” ;-)
My first husband was supposedly allergic to cats and dogs as a kid, but his parents told the doc that was a crock-he was brought up on a ranch, like me-animal allergies just have to be dealt with there-duh. The sneezing stopped within months, all by itself. Our cats and dogs slept with us all the time, so maybe he was just acclimated...
