Last week, I stayed home with Lexie recovering from tonsillectomy. Her voice is so funny now, I haven’t gotten used to it. It’s supposed to get back to normal soon. I made a huge mistake last week. The medicine routine for Lexie involves a cup of water or milk after a swallow of medicine; helps the medicine go down. So, one morning I gave her 1 ½ teaspoon of Amoxicillin, she drank milk from her cup and said she didn’t want anymore. I walked the cup into the kitchen, and without giving it a second thought, drank the rest of the milk. I happen to be allergic to penicillin and the tiny amount left on the rim of her cup from her mouth put me into mild anaphylactic shock. That was a fun morning.
