My 3rd #20time Reflection

Hey this is Kay! Today I am going to talk to you about the medicine that Kade takes and how it helps him. Kade takes some of his medicine through a bottle type thing. It looks like a bottle, but it's smaller. He takes his other medicine through a syringe.  Kade takes 3 ml of Keppra, 4.5 ml of Trileptal, 1.3 ml of Reglan, 5 ml of Provacid, 2.2 ml of Baclofen, and 1 pill of Singular. He takes the Keppra and Trileptal for his seizures, the Reglan and Provacid for his reflux, the Baclofen to help his arms and legs not to be so stiff, and the Singular for his allergies. It is very important to give Kade his medicine because if you don't he won't act like his normal self. It could even cause him to start having seizures. Learning all of this in just one day was a lot and it was pretty difficult. I had to ask many questions because I didn't understand all of it. I'm actually starting to kind of feel like a nurse now because I know how much medicine to give Kade and when to give it to him. In the next blog post, I plan to talk about when Kade got very sick and had to go back into the hospital. That's all I have for today! -Kay
