So I was reading another thread and it made me think about what I should be packing for my family in terms of dealing with/preventing health issues while we are away. Here's what I have come up with so far, but please let me know what you think would be a good idea to pack!
High factor suncream and after-sun lotion for our 'burn as soon as the sun looks like it might want to come out' skin (we are Irish, what can I say?!)
Paracetemol and brufen
decongestants
anti mosquito spray/cream
blister healing plasters
normal plasters
antisceptic cream
bite/sting spray
tissues
antibacterial wipes
antibacterial hand lotion
mini sewing kit
gin - to help cure everything
I went to my pharmacist to ask for his advice regarding seasickness meds and he essentially told me to 'man up' (I am not a man btw! ) and that if we feel sick to go outside for a bit and look at the horizon and if we are feeling really rotten to take the meds offered on board! Maybe the gin can play a role here too... I am still undecided on this one!
