First you treat it as a cold, and you treat the asthma (making sure he can breathe and has his inhaler, clean bedding ect). That means tons of clear lukewarm or warm liquids like watered down apple juice and chicken broth, no solid food as long as he is vomiting, and tylenol or children's aspirin. AND you put in a call to his doctor! We can't possibly know if it is a cold, whooping cough, the flu, a stomach virus, or something else.
