Soda, Crackers, and the Bucket that can Never Go Back
Your kid throws up at two in the morning, and somehow the whole house already knows what to do. You move the patient, assign a bucket, put your hand on the forehead. And then comes the soda (7Up, ginger ale, flat Coke). Nobody taught you any of this and nobody looked it up.
This week we take apart the sick-kid routine and find out that the drink was never the point.
