Red, White & Green

You may have noticed Gracie was in her pajamas in the pictures at Grandma's house for Christmas.  It was her turn to be sick (stomach) and share with me.  So while she and I are spending most of our time in the bathroom, Thomas has decided that he is not through being the sickiest of the sick.

I noticed gross stuff coming out of his eye this afternoon.

Yup. We have pink eye in the house!

Now, our doctor's office is so awesome. I called to ask about the symptoms for pink eye since Gracie never had it.  Well, I called back and decided to get an appointment when Thomas said his eye was hurting. So, the receptionist crossed off the note for the nurse to call me and made me an appointment--for 6:45 pm!  I couldn't believe they were open that late. She confirms that things are so bad they are in weekend and after hours mode (the flu is rampant!!)

Thomas and I continue building the Lego sets he got at Grandma's and the phone rings. The nurse has called back and confirmed that it is pink eye and called in a prescription to keep us from coming in the office and sitting with the masses of flu infected people!

I am so grateful for that call and that protection!

So, now Thomas is on eye antibiotics.  Garren thinks that it was likely the very serious sinus infection that got way out of control that backed up his eye, but either way, he is in for 5 days of more meds.

I would comment on how well the eye drop administration went--but really, you don't want to know.
