The Only Medicine I Ever Took Without A Fight
The only tolerable children's medicine ever invented. I still feel warm inside when I see pics of this adorable little pink bottle. I've already mentioned it here on the blog but this is a new ad that I found. I think it's so sweet and it definitely reminds me of life on Madison Avenue with Ginger Bear at the helm, wiping away my tears, kissing my boo boo's, and staying up late into the night wiping my forehead with a cold rag, keeping me company until the Bayer aspirin did it' work and chased my fevers and headaches away. I love you so much, Mama.
Last month, when I was diagnosed with an enlarged heart and high blood pressure, I was put back on a daily dose of children's aspirin. I never expected to be carrying a bottle of this stuff around again in my life. I didn't even give it to my children when they were little because Tylenol was deemed safer. But here I am, at the age of *cough* 28 *cough*, depending on it to save the day again. : )
