“Other things may change us, but we start and end with family” Anthony Brandt
Hi! My name is Jay of all things! I am a thirty something year old mother, of a 3 1/2 year old red headed daughter and pregnant with a son due to make an appearance in June and I am married to my best friend that I have been in love with since I was 13. Now I am sharing with you my journey through this amazing thing we call life…
This blog will be many things. Sometimes about being a mom, sometimes about being a wife, and sometimes about being me, but definitly at times, about finding that thin girl that lives inside. (I ate her awhile ago, she’s been dying to get back out) so thanks for reading and I hope you laugh with me, cringe with me, but most of all root for me, a mom going through life one step at a time.

There seems to be a lot of misinformation floating around the medical community about Singulair and innocent children are suffering terribly because of it.
I am glad to hear you plan to file an Adverse Event Report with the FDA. I urge EVERY parent whose child had an adverse reaction to Singulair to file one. Adverse Event Reports are how the FDA identifies problem drugs. This is the link: https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/medwatch/medwatch-online.htm.
Would you be willing and able to add a link to our site to Dr. No Trust?

Thank you Jenna. I am going to fill out the form that you let me know about on Twitter today for Prescription side effects. I am hoping my blog will reach other parents as well. He assured me those effects were for teenage kids or young adults, not her age group. Please share with your subscribers my experience on this website if they are inquiring about Singulair for their child, and then they can make an informed decision since I also linked the forum of other parents success or nightmares on this medication.

I read “Dr. No Trust” and was very disturbed that your daughter’s physician either did not know or chose not to disclose the new precaution added to Singulair’s label (prescribing information) about neuropsychiatric adverse reactions to Singulair.
Neuropsychiatric side effects have been on Singulair’s label for YEARS!
For comprehensive information about Singulair and its dangerous side effects, please visit http://www.parentsforsafety.org. We are working hard to raise awareness of Singulair’s terrible side effects – please join us.

Jay you are an inspiration! I love it!
A few years ago (10 to be exact) I started a book. Seeing how well you are doing here I believe I am tempted to pull it out and finish it up….
Thanks!
All my love and best wishes!
Your long ago friend!

Go for it, Jay! I’m pulling for you every step–good and the not-so-good–of the way! I think you picked a perfect time to get into a routine. School for the little ones is a blessing for everyone! I plan on hitting the gym and not the drive thrus once my main man goes to school. Let’s do this together! Woot, Woot!!!!
