If ye are prepared

If ye are prepared, ye shall not fear. I have been worried about taking care of our girls if we get a bad pandemic and what to do with little kids.
I asked the doctor what things to have on hand for kids (you know how kids usually get really sick Saturday night after the pharmacy closes).
This is my doctors list of things to have on hand:
*Tylenol or something for pain and fever
*Cough Suppresant
*Decongestant
*Dermabond (like superglue - for bad cuts to glue skin back together)
*Mirilax (a Laxative)
*Promethegan (Suppository to stop vomiting if they are throwing up and can't stop)
Talking to other moms about their health-kits, other things to include:
*Tea-Tree Oil ( I guess it's from the Malaluca tree? for ear aches
*acidophilus (for yeast infections in kids)
It's amazing how much calm and peace has come after getting a years supply together. Just knowing that we have done what the prophets have asked us to do has brought security in unsure times.
Knowing that we can take care of our little ones is a great comfort.
