Eye

First off yesterday was a big anniversary day for our family. One year ago January 15, 2011 Landon and Tristan got release from the NICU so as their birth is very very important to us January 15 is another big day for our family.
So today back to doctor we go for Tristan's eye, we found out he has an infection. So I will rewind you back to last Thursday. Wednesday I was gone and Jared called me and said I think T has pink eye. So in the morning his eye was red with some gunk in it. Took him to a PA because our doctor was out of town. He thought he had a cold in his left eye so we treated it with drops. Then on Friday his right eye was red so started treating both eyes with the drops. Then on Saturday both eyes looked okay and on Sunday his left eye started looking worse again and it was swollen. So Monday morning when he woke up his left eye was real bad and couldn't open his eye it was swollen shut not with the gunk but just swollen. So we called the doctor and he squeezed us in, he WANTED to see him. And right away he said yep an infection we are going to attack this hard and fast. He thought we caught it early enough but won't know til tomorrow which is hard. Doctor Amir wanted him to get an antibiotic shot and then put him on oral medicine and much stronger ( and more expensive I might add) drops. He said if not better by tomorrow we will have to put him in the hospital. We hope when he wakes up he is better. He also mentioned that this type of infection could lead to meningitis so please keep our little Mr. Tristan in your prayers.
