Guest guest Posted June 20, 2000 Report Share Posted June 20, 2000 I'm OK. VERY busy, and now Zachary is sick. We've been at the Emergency room since about 5:30 (6 hours...). UGH. He has croup and another UTI. I'm exhausted, and I have a terrible headache. Does anyone know if we can use Tylenol suppositories? That's what they gave Zach since he's vomiting. I thought, hey, what a good idea! Not that I want to use them, but since we can't take it orally... Thanks! Amy. P.S. , I can't wait for you & Joyce to be here with me on the other side! _____________________________________________ Amy S.
