My mother used to use bleach bottles to store drinking water. One day my 2 year old nephew ran into the bathroom and drank bleach.

We immediately mixed up the antidote and spooned it down him on the way to the hospital (no ambulance service in the rural area).

He was ok. I wish I could say that was the only thing, but he was adept at escaping adults and trying out many things. He also could climb like a monkey before he could walk.

It makes for interesting family stories these days, but I sometimes wonder how he ever managed to survive.LOL

I mark “TAP WATER” with a date.....we don’t drink out of them! They are for emergency....the worst that would happen around here is my husband would use one for BLEACH.
