Murphy’s Law regarding Children’s Illnesses:

  • Posted on March 6, 2007 at 9:38 am

You will buy a new bottle of medication. Your child will consume precisely ONE teaspoon out of this new bottle, at which point the illness will be cured.

If you are a student, you WILL miss class the week before your first exams of the semester.

If you have more than one child, they will regain health at different rates. The now-healthy child WILL annoy the everluvvin crap out of the still-sick child with taunts of “C’mon, let’s go OUTSIDE to play!”

    Don’t even get me started. I’m still battling a sinus infection because I couldn’t afford the $150 Rx I was given to cure it. Why? Because my son needed $600 in medicines for his sickness/asthma/allergies all in the same day.

    We went to another doctor because I didn’t believe in overmedicating this kid that only weighs 30 lbs. She confirmed, he didn’t need all that. He need some albuterol and some sunshine.

    And $600 later I’m still sniffling…how does that work?
