What would the holidays be like without a trip to the ER?
Our family would not know. I think visiting yearly during Christmas break is the only tradition we've never missed.
Susanna managed to get into her sibling's fluoride enhanced vitamins and pounded a few. After a call to poison control, they looked up the meds and told us to get her to the ER as soon as possible. David thought this odd, but went with it.
Upon arriving at the emergency room they rushed us to a room in the back (poison control apparently called ahead for us) and the doctor saw us immediately. After writing down the name of the vitamin he went to "do a little more research".
He came back and double checked Susanne's weight. He then informed us that it would take about 80 pills (not 3 or 4) for him to even become concerned.
Then it took about 30 minutes to discharge us.
Dear Poison Control, that will be $75 dollars please, make checks payable to David Hoffman, #1 Annoyed Ave...
