This week was the time for my synagis shot. They really hurt but I'm a tough guy, I only cry a little while.
I get to take these shots every month during flu and cold season. They are VERY expensive but I get them free because I was a premie. I only weighed 2.4 pounds when I was born.
Each dose of Synagis helps protect me from RSV for about 30 days—so a new shot is needed each month during the RSV season.
"RSV" stands for "Respiratory syncytial virus" and usually causes mild cold-like symptoms in adults and children. But it can make premature babies and children like me very sick.
Each year, 125,000 infants in the United States are hospitalized with severe RSV infections, the leading cause of infant hospitalization. So you can see it is very important that I get these shots cause I don't wanna get sick. I think I heard me Daddy tel grandma they cost $4000.00 each and I get one a month for several months.
Thank you God for making synagis shots available for kids like me.
OK , I gotta take a bottle now and a little power nap.
Thanks for stopping by
