Again?

***June 2nd, 2014

So...Isla has pink eye, again. Seriously? None of the kids in her school have come down with it. Where the hell is it coming from? Her pillow case? Maybe I'm not washing it often enough...guess I'll have to make it a point to wash it more often? How often should I wash it? I swear...it's like a hybrid case of it, too. On Sunday afternoon I noticed her eye discharge was becoming more frequent...colored, too. You know, that yellow/greenish tint. As a precaution, I started giving her eye drops that minute. The exact same ones I gave her the last time she had pink eye. I think it helped, because her eye didn't have as much discharge coming out of it throughout the evening (this is still Sunday). But, today she woke up with her eye crusted shut. Yup - crusted shut. Obviously, I knew it was pink eye for sure right then and there. But, taking her in to the doctor today was a necessity because the eye drops we have are going to run out before we can give her enough doses to clear it up. It was relatively quick and easy...her doc agreed that it was pink eye and prescribed her more eye drops (different ones, actually). 1 drop, 4x a day, for one week. Simple, right? Well...these kinds of things aren't always simple with 3 year olds. But, Isla did pretty well the last time we had to give her eye drops. So, I assume she'll do well this time too. Fingers crossed!

Oh, gotta give a quick shout out to my hubbs...he stayed home from work this morning so that I could go to school. Couldn't miss the quiz I had today since I've already missed one. So, THANK YOU BABE!!!

What a man, what a man, what a man, what a mighty good man ;-)
