what's up with the pixies

ok, it has been 2yrs since by big chop. And now I have little knots in my hair called pixies. i'm trying to understand why I have them. I have searched all around the internet for answers and what I see is No one really knows why we get them. My understanding is that they come when your hair gets tangled, makes since. But then i came across a forum that was talking about the scissors you use. If your scissors are dull then your hair have more pixie knots.I can say that the time frame from my big chop(may2009) till oct 2010 I did not have any pixies and my hair was cut by a pro. Around oct I wasn't able to take care of my daughters or my own hair because I was sick from being pregnant. After that I noticed our hair had pixie knots and when I cut them It seems like alot more came. So I think tangles may have started them but now the fact that I trimed my ends with dull scissors it made more. I looked at a ad for splitender and I saw some reviews from other naturals and I think I might want to try it. Wish it wasn't so much money but I really want to see how it works.

what about the dog and asthma

Today was a day that I hope never happens again. Friday I had to bring my daughter to the hospital she couldn't breath. Hopeless is what I felt. What can you do when something like this happens. Looking at her in that bed with a oxygen mask on her face, seeing them put an iv in her arm. You just see how helpless we all are. How at any time a person can fall short and there is noting we can do but hope for the best. My child has asthma and there are a lot of late night runs to the hospital but nothing like this she has never had to stay over night. She has been there two days now. And the only thing I can hope for is that once she comes home she not sick anymore. I guess she can't help but have it. Her dad has it I had it as a child. But I had a dog who my mom still to this day says took the asthma away. I have search all over the internet to see what can prevent a asthma attack with out those harsh chemicals, a more natural way if you will. I have found its 50/50 on the dog thing. But could it be so, could a animal take away your sickness? Is that what god made that certain dog for? Well, if you think of it stranger things have happened.
