Jeyanth & Maya

So, yesterday when Jeyanth got up from his nap we noticed a yellow discharge in his eye, and a quick trip to the doctor confirmed that he has conjunctivitis - probably viral.

The worst part of this is that the treatment is an eye lotion that needs to be smeared under his lower eyelid - and Jeyanth is not keen on this. Not keen at all. I don’t know if you have any idea how hard it is to get something into the eye of a toddler who doesn’t want it there, and who has screwed his face up and is howling with betrayal at the fact that you are trying to do this to him.

We only have a little tube of the ointment, and at the rate it ends up on his face, our faces, his hands, everyone’s clothes, I don’t know if it is going to last the five days. For that matter, I don’t know if I’m going to last the five days…
