Happy Teachers Day. I know its been ages! I just had to come out of the deep blue sea to write this. I enjoyed writing this. Maybe cos it's been awhile. Tag a teacher, your teachers, your kids teachers. #teachersday #fathers #mothers #teacher #gems

I saw this on a what's app group. Very touching, I wish everyone would adopt this, the world would be a better place. Have great week. #family #ivyscribbles #familyiseverything

My wife, my wife, my wife!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣 So they were going about the place with a pillow?

Bundles of joy.

It's been a wonderful month! And a great first half of the year! 🍷 here is to a better second half! Have a beautiful weekend! #june #family #ivyscribbles

Goodmorning kings and queens. Fever, a nuisance that disturbs our little angels as they try to make their way through life with its pleasures and challenges. Fever is a very common symptom in children especially in our environment where malaria is endemic. Other sources of fever could be a viral illness or an infection in any part of the human body. An infection will usually present itself with a fever. Paracetamol are over the counter medications which help relieve fever and pain. A common practice in Nigeria is to give children with fever paracetamol frequently which helps relieve the fever and the child looks and feels ok. This can be quite dangerous especially if the fever is caused by something more sinister like malaria which is very common in our environment. A child with malaria will feel better when given paracetamol but the danger is, paracetamol will not cure the malaria infection, it only relieves the fever. Net result is, the malaria parasite continues to multiply and destroys red blood cells. This eventually leads to a child who presents to the emergency very weak, with high grade fever and a very low pack cell volume(PCV). I HAVE SEEN A PCV OF 5% for a child the mother kept giving paracetamol to relieve the fever. Low PCV values like this will predispose the child to heart failure, brain anoxia and death. So mothers and fathers, my advice, once you notice your angel has a fever, check with a thermometer, give paracetamol for immediate symptom relief and see a doctor. DO NOT GIVE PARACETAMOL CHRONICALLY. IT DOES NOT CURE SOURCES OF FEVER, IT IS ONLY FOR SYMPTOM RELIEF. #parenting #healthtips #health #family
