YUCK!!!

Allyson had to go to the Doctor on Thursday because she has Strep Throat for the 5th or 6th time since December. As a last ditch effort to clear up the strep before we have to get her tonsils removed this summer, the Dr. put her on a horrible antibiotic called Clindamycin. The liquid version smells like baby poopy diapers. YUCK! I can only imagine how it tastes! Well after 3 times of throwing up the first and only dose of the liquid I called the DR. to get a scrip for the pills you have to swallow. Ally, poor baby, could not swallow them so we tried breaking them apart and putting them in Kool-Aid, yogurt, sugar, and applesauce. Each time ended up in her throwing up! YUCK!! So finally I gave up at midnight Friday morning. Later that day after very little sleep, she stayed home from school with my mom. After a few threats (haha) she found a way to get Ally to take this horrible medicine. She mixed the powder from the capsule in a little bit Kraft Pimento Spread and gave it to her on her finger. (I guess the finger made it a little better?????) Anyway she takes a bite and chases it with water. This is followed by quivers and gags but she eventually gets it all down. She is finally feeling better. I just hope it clears the strep up!!!
