The devil has red eyes

At the weekend we arranged to go out to the fringe with Craig and Alison to see Jason Byrne. Fraser had been ill since the wednesday before - just tired and grumpy. Then he caught an eye infection from Beth in one eye. By the weekend both eyes were sore and he was really struggling. I was adamant that we were going on an overnight away from the kids and he had just better perk up. We went on a pub crawl and then some tapas, more alcohol and then the show. Got in at 1 and we were all really rough the next day.

By Monday though Fraser couldn't even open his eyes so I called the Dr's and told them they were seeing my husband today. I ran him up there first thing in the morning and he came out with a pile of prescriptions. He has tonsilitous and a severe conjunctavitous in each eye. He needed total bed rest for two weeks. Well having kids running around the house makes it difficult to relax and catch up on sleep. So for all this week I have been out the house jumping from one playdate to the next and staying at my mum and dads. I'm happy to report that he can now see out of both his eyes and he is back on solid food. So we've all moved back home - we missed him lots and happy to see the back of Mr Grumpy pants.
