Something I wanted to share:
My youngest was in hospital for 5 days. The Doctors and Nurses were struggling to gage his pain, and illness threshold.
One quick call to a friend, and she was able to create this and sent it to me.

It was a huge success in helping my little one communicate his wellbeing, to the medical staff. Please fell free to save this to your phone, print it, or share with family and friends πŸ₯°πŸ₯°

They spoke about how we can help support our children, as they prepare to transition into school. I would like to share with you some key notes that I felt were very informative.
