No More Medicine!

Yesterday was a very exciting day in our house. It was the first time in almost a year that Jude didn’t have to take his 3 MLs of anti-seizure medicine twice a day. That medicine did its job, but was a pain. Jude hated how it tasted and it was a struggle to get him to take it. Andy came up with the idea of mixing the medicine with super strong Kool-Aid. It made the medicine tolerable for Jude. The more Kool-Aid, the better it tasted, but the longer it took him to drink it. Levi seemed to always like it and would drink it any time Jude left the cup unattended. That resulted in a call to poison control and I learned that it could cause Levi to become drowsy, but it never did. Jude smiled and laughed tonight when I told him (jokingly) that it was time for his medicine. He’s so thrilled that’s over.
