you do really like to tempt Murphy, don't you. ;)

Here's to hoping you don't all end up itchy and sore at the same time.

 

Words of advice - if you get a prescription - ask for the drops instead of the cream stuff -it's much easier!

And I wouldn't wish Hand Foot and Mouth on anyone. Absolutely the worst (I'm a bit biased though, because my daughter came down with a secondary potentially life threatening disease as a side effect from the aforementioned disease)

 

Ooooo.... I agree with Whirlwind. Glad it's "only" pink eye. Hope you're all well soon!

 

Yeah, I'd take pinkeye over some of the other stuff I guess!

 

Ah, man, I'm sorry. It hit our house when the twins were 2. It is soooo hard to put eyedrops in a two year olds eye.

Hope y'all get past this soon!

 

Oh, no! My entire family just recovered from the pink eye plague... first my 3-year old grandson, then his 1-year old brother, then my daughter (their mommy), and of course me because I was taking care of them all! Add to that coughs, sore throats... you name it. I agree with whirlwind to get the drops.

I've washed my hands 'til my skin is raw and gone though a dozen rolls of paper towels... but it seems the worst is over!

I'll be thinking of you,

I just hope you don't end up with pink eye! wash your hands... I get pink eye at least twice a year- not fun.

 

The SECOND your eye feels yucky, get the drops or ointment. I was able to avoid the guck and redness this last go around.

Oh and those dreaded phone calls? My favorite was the first day of school last year and I got a call at 2:30 asking where I was. I thought school went until 3pm. They got out at 2:20pm.

 

I am so sorry you are dealing with the pink crud. There was a bad outbreak in Oregon a couple of months ago and both my girls got it more than once. Luckily it was just the girls and J and I both avoided it.

The nurse recommended Clorox bleach wipes - those things are fantastic. I'm sure you already know, but you should bleach everything in sight to kill the germ.

 

Oh no! I have had pink eye and it isn't fun. Thankfully the boys have avoided that thus far.

We have not been so lucky with Rotavirus though. I think I'd take pink eye. Want to trade?

;-)

 

we just got thru our round of pink eye .... I got it worse then my 3 year old ... NOT FUN!!

 

Ah, pink eye. Just thinking about it makes my eyes watery. Or maybe it's all the damn rabbit fur that's flying around my apartment...
