It's Hit Home

One of my husband's students passed away this last month due to the bacteria found in Tylenol.
He was given the medicine on the ninth (only ONE dose) and he passed away on the tenth. The bacteria went straight to his liver.
The product did not have to be off of the shelves until the SIXTEENTH! I can not believe that!
If they knew the products were contaminated they should have taken it off immediately!
It is not just in the children's medicine. The bacteria was found in Motrin, Benadryl, anything that was made at that facility at that time.
How frightening is that.
If you purchased anything before the sixteenth, go to Tylenol.com, it shows a list of all the infected products and their lot numbers so you can check your purchase.
PLEASE check it out.
I know we hear about stuff all the time, but this time, it's hit home for us.
This little boy was only six years old.
Please tell everyone you can so this tragedy does not have to be repeated.

That is SO sad, what a horrible thing for that family! To think the thing you give your child to help them feel better killed them. Thanks for spreading the word.
