Thank you, AstraZeneca!

One of the medications that Nicholas uses in his breathing treatments is Pulmicort which is manufactured by AstraZeneca. Pulmicort is a corticosteroid that is inhaled through his nebulizer machine. It's a maintenance medicine for asthma and it is designed specifically for children's small bodies. I've been doing some research on the medication and signed up with AstraZeneca to receive more information about Pulmicort. I'm so glad that I did. They sent me a lot of information on the medicine and some free masks and tubing for the machine but they also sent some goodies for Nicholas as well. They sent several sheets of stickers that he can use to decorate the nebulizer machine or his mask or anything he wants. They also sent a DVD for Nicholas to watch while he gets his treatments. It shows a little sea creature type character named Pulmi who has to get a breathing treatment. The story highlights all the cool things that Pulmi does at the beach and the neat sea creatures he meets. When the show is over (about the time that it takes to complete a treatment), Pulmi does an "All Finished Dance" where he dances around because his treatment is over. Nicholas loves to watch the video while he gets his treatment and he asks to do the "All Finished Dance" several times once he is done. Thank you, AstraZeneca, for making these treatments a little more enjoyable for our little guy!
