After examining him, the doctors have given August an antibiotic ointment to use and he will be seeing an ophthalmologist on Monday.
Pretty much what we expected. But at least we know he's not in terrible danger. I think he will heal up nicely and all will be well.
Adventures in parenting.
Oh damn! Following the Christmas story script- Ralphie!! You'll put your eye out! Oh man, i hope he is OK, Eyes are pretty important.
ReplyDeleteYou know I've never seen that movie? What's wrong with me?
DeletePoor guy. Glad it's not too bad.
ReplyDeleteI don't think it is.
Deletehave been thinking about August and Jessie all afternoon.........sounds good so far,,,,,may he heal quickly and without further incident
ReplyDeleteSusan M
Exactly!
DeleteOh my, I was sorry to hear about his accident but I'm grateful to know it is not too bad. These kids just have to keep us on our toes don't they! My grandson was in and out of the ER quite a bit growing up but he's made it to 19 come February. I hope all goes well with August and the ophthalmologist!
ReplyDeleteMy brothers were at the ER about once a month for awhile there. Craziness! And I took my kids in a few times too. Always scary.
DeleteParenting is not for the faint of heart. Thinking of August and Jessie. Best of luck with the ophthalmologist.
ReplyDeleteIt definitely is not, Mary.
DeleteKids sure do make life interesting. Sweet boy and sweet mama.
ReplyDeleteAmen.
DeleteI figure ALL parenting is an adventure until those critters grow up and hair over and then we wish children of their own on them! [Diabolical cackling!]
ReplyDelete"Hair over..." I've never heard that and it cracked me up. I'm totally stealing it!
DeleteSteal away!!!
DeleteSo glad to hear it's better than we feared. Some kids just do stuff like this! they survive fine, their parents not so much.
ReplyDeleteParents age faster than non-parents do. I am convinced.
DeleteWhew!!
ReplyDeleteRight?
