[Ohio-talk] Measuring

[Kimberly]

Hi Anna,
Get some tape with contrast, like duct tape and mark off the syringe at the amount you need. Then you'll know where to stop the plunger. I would do this to a few syringes in case the tape falls off.

But the medication is almost transparent so it is very hard for me to tell when it reaches the appropriate markings.  When Im measuring out darker liquid meds, I have no trouble seeing it. But with this clear one, I dont know what to do, other than have a sighted person do it every time (twice every day).  I am going to be taking care of her while my sister goes out of town for 10 days, so I am hoping to find out a way to do this on my own.  Any suggestions would be much appreciated!
