Eye Infection !!!

So I went to pick Skyler up from school on Thursday and found him with both eyes completely glued shut … uck! The doctor called in a prescription for some antibiotics and when we went to get them, there were two. Of course on call could not assist with why we got two antibiotics, so we had to wait to start treatment. Finally, on Friday morning we heard word that the pharmacy messed up with the two antibiotics and to just give him one. Here is a picture of his eyes on Friday morning …

By his face you can tell what kind of day we had … Of course all bad things (like days off from school for Skyler) come the day before I have a huge assignment due for my school!

So, Friday we started treatment and a lot of linen washing. By  Saturday morning (as Dr. Don predicted), his eyes were no longer goopy.

I think that everyone who had contact with Skyler was itching and scratching their eyes for days, suspecting the cooties may have passed to them. Fortunately, no one caught them. High Five for good hand washing skills everyone!!!



P.S. 1 eye drop per eye x 2/day
1 M&M per eye drop
7 days of eye drops
