Travel First Aid

Jekyll Island, September, 2017

Seth has been looking forward to his school field trip to Jekyll Island for months.
 He's my THIRD child, but my baby and, oh, I find this hard.
 So, I came along.
 Kind of.
 I'm staying nearby,
The blades are whirring just in case he needs me.

 I packed my usual "just-in-case" first-aid kit.

Here are some of the items that I might have packed in his suitcase:

An assortment of bandages, gauze, and tape
3M Coban wrap
cleansing towelettes
syringe of saline to cleanse a wound
antibiotic ointment
Benedryl
ibuprofen
insect repellent
sunscreen
cold medication
antacids

I'm too embarrassed to say what else I've also packed  "just-in-case."
 I'll just leave it at there's no need to call in medical supplies for anyone.
I have enough for the whole middle school.

Have mercy, I need help.
