My kids getting sick is one of my biggest fears for this trip. I prayed hard but I guess fatigue, change of time zones and extreme weather condition can really take a toll on our body that is why my two kids got sick during our vacation.
First was Jacobo who got diarrhea with fever on our second day in New York. I really feel guilty and I regretted bringing my kids to this trip but thankfully, his fever was gone the next day.
Next was B during our stay in Canada. She got stomach flu that she vomits every time she drinks milk. She even have rashes and fever also.
I monitored their condition the whole night when they got sick. Thankfully I got a reliable thermometer which I loaded with good batteries which I got from the online store where I buy
makita batteries so I was able to check their temperature round the clock.
We have four days left before we go back to Manila. I really enjoyed this trip and this quality time with my family but I am glad that we are finally going home, back to our comfort zone.

Do you suffer from migraine? Well if you do, you are probably taking Topamax. Topamax is a medicine use to treat migraine. It is also an anti convulsant use to treat epileptic patients. But what most of us don’t know is that it has been proven to increase the risk of causing birth defects when moms take this drug when they are expecting. Such birth defects can include cleft lip.
I have been doing some reading and I confirmed that there are a lot of victims caused by side effects from taking different medicines. It could be the fault of the manufacturer for failing to put additional information on the drugs that they are producing, it could also be the fault of the doctor who prescribed the medicine to the patient.
But if only physicians can have easy access to information such as this from the internet or by simply communicating with their colleagues, then chances of these kinds of problems will be lessen and this is the aim of the application Doximity.
Doximity is an application available on smart phones and even via Internet that lets a private network of physician consult with each other. They can do a lot of things with Doximity like check profile of a particular physician like
Phillip Porch MD, send an instant message to a colleague, share information and many more.
With Doximity, doctors can communicate with each other faster and easily, which can lessen chances of committing medical mistakes.

I am glad that even though we are away, things are all ready for B for her school opening. I was able to do some shopping here in the US for the school stuff that she needs like her bag, lunch box and juice bottle as well as the white rubber shoes that she needs for PE. And then my sister took care of enrolling her and buying the other school supplies from St Scholastica.
So hopefully B will be able to adjust to the time as soon as we get back as she only have one week (I think) to rest and recover from our travel before she goes back to school.

Oh my gosh, I am so bad that I did not remember that it is Mother’s Day on Sunday. So how will you celebrate Mother’s Day?
Since we will be leaving on Saturday, we need to celebrate Mother’s Day in advance. I don’t need any fancy gift for my mom since she will be coming with us for our vacation and that is our Mother’s Day and Birthday gift for her. So I am planning to just order a bouquet of flowers for my mom, my grand mother and my two aunts. This is what I always do every mother’s day, I always give gifts to all the moms in my family as I know how special this day is for them so this is the perfect time to acknowledge all that they have been doing as a great mom.
Thankfully, I can still save even if I have to order for all the moms in my family by using the
ProFlowers radio promo code that I got from Rush Limbaugh to Mike and Mike show. I also checked out the site of ProFlowers and they have other promo codes too that I can use.
I have to place my order today so the flowers will arrive in time before our flight on Saturday so we can still celebrate Mother’s Day even if we are away.
