The Duggar family took a step away from fame around 10 years but the 19 Kids and Counting alums are still hitting the headlines. These days, some of the Duggar kids have children of their own. And, Jinger, one of the older sisters of the family, just experienced a scary ordeal with her daughter, Evangeline.

The former TLC star explains how, out of the blue, her daughter’s health took a turn. She and her husband, Jeremy were in “shock” as she says it was a “super scary” experience. The family was in the hospital until the early hours of the morning until their four-year-old daughter was “stable.”

Jinger and Jeremy detail ‘rush to ER’

As Jinger and Jeremy explain the scary ordeal they experienced with their daughter, Jeremy says how he feared their four-year-old was having an asthma attack.

Jinger explained: “She just had a little episode of something where a doctor even thought maybe she had inhaled something and aspirated maybe a piece of food and it might have been lodged in there. So, by the time she got a steroid and all, she was breathing well again.”

Jeremy tells of the moment they knew something was up with their daughter: “I heard her cough. It was 10:30 at night and I hear a cough… I run into her room where she’s sleeping and she’s hunched over struggling to breathe.”

“It was scary,” adds Jinger.

Jeremy continues: “I grab her and run out and I say ‘Where’s the nearest hospital?’ I jump in the truck and we’re flying to the hospital.”

The couple adds: “That was a really scary feeling, having her breathing not being so well and I think with that we weren’t sure… She was OK, she was stable, she wasn’t turning blue. That’s the thing I was looking for, too.”

They’re set to get Evangeline some more tests done “to rule out allergies and asthma.”
