Dear TJ,

You poor thing. You’ve had such a nasty cough for over two weeks now. We went to see the pediatrician, but he said it was just an upper respiratory “thing.” You cough all day long. You cough in your sleep. We’re trying to treat your symptoms like the doctor said, but the relief doesn’t last. Grandma Debbie wants us to call the doctor on Monday and insist on prescription cough medicine for you if it doesn’t get better, but I don’t know if they give prescription cough medicine to 3 year olds anymore.

I hope your nasty cough goes away soon.

Love,
Mommy
