I always thought Andrew was such a healthy kid. And I guess he is, since all he ever seems to get are colds. But why does he have to get sick every time we go out of town???
He woke up yesterday with pus-encrusted eyes. We are at my in-laws' house, so our doctor is hours away. I am faced with sitting in an emergency room to just get a perscription. Until my GENIUS mother-in-law suggests just calling Andrew's doctor to see if they will call in something. I wouldn't have thought of that.
And it was just that simple. I described his symptoms to the nurse, and she called me back a few hours later telling me the doctor had called in a perscription for eye drops. I LOVE THIS DOCTOR!
Andrew has been very good about getting his drop. A little less good for every dose that goes by. He has to have a drop in the eye EVERY THREE HOURS. Now, at least it is only one drop. But YIKES! This morning, he woke up and I laid him on my lap. He closed his eyes tightly. I said "Uh-oh...is Andrew asleep". And, keeping his eyes closed, he nodded his head yes. HOW CUTE IS THAT???
His eye already looks better. But now the other one is getting pus-encrusted. How could that be??? Doesn't a toddler know not to rub one eye and the the other??? The real question is...how many days until Jeff and I have pus eyes???
