My First Case of Pink Eye!

Yesterday I had to go to the doctor due to a yucky case of pink eye.  Mommies noticed that my eyes looked a little funny on Saturday.  They had some “gunk” coming out of them, which they thought was strange.  They wanted to see if it changed on Sunday, which it did – it went away!  They thought we were in the clear, but the symptoms came back a little on Monday then came back really bad on Tuesday.  Mama took me to the clinic in New Richmond to have me checked out, and I have pink eye in both eyes.  I also had a fever and was just feeling yucky in general.  All things considered though, I’ve been in a really good mood and Mommy says I’ve been a real “trooper”.  Following my appointment, Mama took me to Family Fresh to pick up my prescription eye drops.  Given the fact that I’m not feeling good, Mama was a real sucker for me, and ended up buying me a balloon to try to cheer me up … it worked!    Here are some pictures of me on my way to the clinic as well as some after the clinic when I got my  new balloon. 

Passed out on my way to the doctor.

Getting a squeeze from Grandma before I go!


Post-appointment - happy with the balloon Mama picked out for me.


Even happier with the balloon when it's inflated.  It's Winnie the Pooh - one of my favorites!!!
