Mia has conjunctivitis! BLEH!First, our entire household came down with bronchitis. It has taken over a month to get rid of it. Now this. I guess it is pretty contagious. Mia hasn't really been anywhere besides the eye doctor's last Friday. I am assuming this is where she got it. Thanks, doc. Thanks a lot.
I have bleached all of the kids' toys, sprayed Lysol all over the house and gone through several bottles of Clorox Anywhere Spray (my best germ-fighting friend). Guess I need to repeat the whole process once again.
Mia does pretty good about taking medicine (considering what she has been through the last six months), but this is the worst. She has never fought us on taking medicine before, but Jay and I practically have to sit on her to get the ointment in her eyes. There are many tears. I feel so bad for her.
So, stay tuned. This may be our SIXTH week of missing church. Lord help us!!
Oh man! Tiana had that last week - it cleared up with just 2 days of drops (although we did the full 5 days like the dr. recommended). Poor Mia- and poor you guys! Having everyone sick is SO DRAINING!!
ReplyDeleteSINNERS! You need to be in church, young lady ;) Just kidding, of course! That stinks for Mia! Hopefully, EVERYTHING will be cleared up soon!

ReplyDeleteKarah: It IS soooo draining! Mia still battling it, too. We tried the ointment first and she had an allergic reaction to it and broke out in hives all over her body. Great. So, we switched to the drops (what I requested in the first place!! GRRR!!) and now she is fine. She is still a bit crusty, but we are getting there. :)
ReplyDeleteP: Yeah Yeah. Yeah. :) Well, we did end up going yesterday and now I'm not sure we should have. :o\ Mia woke up crusty again this morning. Normally, she would have PT this morning, but her therapist has conjunctivitis now, too. ACK...I pray she didn't get it from Mia!
