Worms be-gone

After the doctor had prescribed the worm medication, I did not give you the medicine yet. Why? Because I was worried about your persisting tummy aches that wouldn't go away. And to make matters worse, you lost your voice last Monday and developed a phlegmmy cough when you slept. Poor little thing.

We brought you in on Sunday to see Dr Mary. She was worried when she saw us going in again. She thought that you tummy ache wasn't getting better. But it was actually your cough. She checked and confirmed that you had quite a bit of phlegm. So what to do? On medication. And I told her that you kept wanting to do a poo, and only did a little bit, and she said that it was a symptom from the worms. And that I should give it to you quickly.

So on Tuesday, after your bath, mummy got you to bring your little blue chair to the dining table, then gave you a little spoon and fed you the de-worming medicine. I thought that it would be a BIG challenge, but you did very well. You happily slurped all 10oz (correction: 10oz!) of medicine and cheerfully took the rest of your medicine when I fed you the other medicine later on.

All done, and by the looks of it, you don't seem to complain of a tummy ache anymore. And so.. worms be-gone!

As for your cough.. I hope to be able to say "Cough be-gone" soon too..
