Pink Eye!

Our poor little guy has had his first and hopefully last go with Pink Eye. We don't know where he got it but he woke up Tuesday morning with a very red and goopy eye. So what a mom to do, well this mom called the Doctor expecting them to have us come in so Dr. Joe could look at it. That is not what happened, I told the wonderful nurse on the phone that I thought he had Pink Eye, she in turn asked what it looked like. After a few back and forhts she confirmed what I thought and said there was no need to come in that she would just call in a antibiotic for him. This was the best news because after his last two visits to the doctor he might not have been a happy camper going back and we saved a chunk of change in the meantime by not having to pay for a sick visit all we had to pay for was the generic antibiotics.

Charlie is now on the mend and by Wednesday you couldn't even tell that he had Pink Eye. We are still putting drops in his eyes, which in his view is pure torture. We keep telling him it is for his own good, and ours, but as soon as we both walk into his room and lay him on the changing table he screams bloody murder. This should only last for 7 more days so I think he will survive, it is so much better then the alternative but alas he is just a little to young to understand that right now.

On another note, we are still waiting on one test result to come back and of course when I spoke with the nurse on Tuesday she said this one was the one that took the most time. I am hoping we hear something before the end of this week.

Sorry mom no pictures today maybe I will get some loaded tonight!
