amazing how jagermeifter liquer tastes just like that stuff

...my son has had a cold for a few days now, poor lil guy has been coughing alot at night
btw, a question for all you experienced moms..how do you quiet a persistent cough ..aside from the prescribed medicine, elevating his head with extra pillow, saline spray in nose, a cool mist humidifier during day, a vaporizer with menthol liquid at night.
we do all these ...do you just let them cough?

Re: Cold!!

I use a night time cough syrup or capusules made by Robitussin for my teenage daughter when she has a cough. She also like to take hot showers to help with stuffiness....

Re: Cold!!

Wood... STOP SMOKING, I did 10 months ago now and feel 100 times better.

Billy sorry to hear about the cold dude, lots oh sleep and liquids about the best for you. Maybe you need a new FRAG or something to take your mind off of it?

Sure hope I don't catch this stuff, maybe it's a reef thing....
