Today we are celebrating a very special birthday. If it had not been for the invention of Tylenol, I highly doubt we would be celebrating this birthday this year.
Have you ever thought to be grateful for the existence of Tylenol?
To be sure, I’ve been truly grateful for Tylenol all the times I’ve been sick with a fever or the flu.
However, it never occurred to me that the existence of such a normal, common, over-the-counter medication could actually save life, which one hundred years ago would not have been the case.
Such as … when the fever won’t go away!
Days pass … and the fever won’t go away!
Weeks pass … and the fever won’t go away. A fever jumping up into the 105-degree range. And it won’t go away!
If it weren’t for Tylenol … that fever would have taken a very special life this past January.
Because of the existence of Tylenol, life was prolonged … and time was given for doctors to figure out and prescribe another medication which had an effect on the fever.
Additionally, a brand-new, newly formulated, newly researched medication has just recently been developed within the last two years. Because of this medication … the gift of life has been given.
The gift to continue living a normal, functioning life.
The gift of life!!
How many of us think to be grateful for this precious gift??
Most of us rush throughout our days, stressing and striving to accomplish all that’s demanded of us.
But living … do we think to be grateful for this fact??
Thank you God, for this precious … this so very precious gift of life!
I don’t take this precious gift for granted at all!
“The Spirit of God has made me; the breath of the Almighty gives me life.” – Job 33:4
