First and Foremost, the Robison family is doing much better, well majority. The friday before last I noticed some green gunk coming from one of Cayne's eye. Thinking it could be pink eye, I used some over the counter homeopathic pink eye drops. No luck. I had to work that Saturday and Sunday so Ross was home with her. Saturday he cleaned up her eyes. Sunday followed with sneezing, coughing and a runny nose. Thinking this would be a 2 day bug, Ross stayed home with her on monday and I stayed home with her on tuesday. She was a zombie. She looked awful. She couldnt breath, couldnt sleep and didnt want to eat. I called and her pediatrician was on vacation (her secondary pediatrician was booked) so tuesday night she saw a doctor she's never seen before. Cayne was put on eye drops for pink eye and benadryl to dry her up, saying it was a cold "viral mess". I stayed home with her on Wednesday. Her eyes were still matted shut with gunk, nothing was getting better. Ross stayed home with her on Thursday and got us an appoitment with her secondary pediatrician that afternoon. Thank goodness! One look and said "wow, thers a lot going on" took her off the eye drops because she doesn't have pink eye. She's is now on antibiotics for an ear infection, she has a cold that will run its coarse, she was put on a steroid cream for eczema, and to still use the benadryl for now, for possible allergies.
Its Sunday night and all is well again. We have Cayne back. She is feeling better and happy again. She's sleeping in her bed again and not in the swing, therefore mom and dad are sleeping in their bed again and not on the couch with one eye and ear open. Its been a long week and now Ross has been infected...he's got crap in his chest. : (
In the mix of all this, we are dogsitting for some friends. Louie has had the time of his life since wednesday and will until this thursday. Never a dull moment in this house. What a bunch of cuties though.
