OK I know… it is not what you are thinking. It is so much cleaner and better then what you are thinking. This is a G rated site you know.
About a month ago my mother in law had advised me to put Vicks Vapor rub on little Analiese’s feet. I had though that she was nuts! Why would I put Vick’s on my babies feet? So the next day my mother in law emails me an article on how putting vicks on a babies feet is actually better for the baby then putting it on their chest. I laughed and forwarded it all of my friends. I was thinking that they would also find the whole thing quite funny!
A few days later a saw one of the friends that I had emailed the article to in the Mall. She was so happy and excited. She had told me that her daughter had been sick with a cough for about a week. She had said that the poor baby had not even been able to sleep laying down so my friend had been holding he all night long! Then she went on to tell me something quite shocking. She tried the Vick’s on the feet solution out of sheer desperation and IT WORKED! She was thanking me profusely. I had to come clean and let her know that it was my mother in law who had figured it all out!
I have not had a sick child since my mother in law mentioned the Vicks on the feet trick. I am anxious to try it on someone… Darn that flu shot! I would love to hear who out there has tried it.
