Thanks for ruining it...

I'm sure you all have heard about the whole recall thing on Children's Cold Medicine. You know, it was causing problems with some kids and it was pulled from store shelves. (Most of it). Well, it was basically due to parents who were giving the wrong dosage, using the wrong syringe, etc... (ie, using the Tylenol measuring syringe instead of the motrin, etc). When Aaron was a few months old he got a horrible cold and was miserable! I found this stuff at Rite Aid, Infants Tylenol Cold Medicine. I gave it to him (using the dropper that was included, duhhhh) and it worked great! Now my little Belle was a nasty cold and I cannot find anything I can give to her! I can suck the snot out with a bulb syringe all I want, use all the saline drops in the bottle and wipe her nose a bazillion times, but NOTHING works! She is so sleep deprived, grumpy and miserable. She wants to suck her pacifier so much but cannot breathe with it in her mouth :( She's such a sad sight.

I just want to thank those morons who used the wrong dosage by being dumb. Now my little girl is miserable and there is nothing I can do. Thanks. Maybe you should pay attention to the dosage instructions, they're not that hard to follow.

Right ~~ Perhaps the directions were not printed in 27 different languages on the box so the moron giving the incorrect dose could not read the directions !!!!!
Thank you for the lovely note of encouragement ~~~ It does always help to hear a kind word and know someone is praying for me !!
Thanks again ~~
