He seems happy enough, no fever, but the rim of his eye is a bit red (they both are, but only one was crusty).
It is slightly weepy, but he hasn't been rubbing it at all, so it is not troubling him.
He has a runny nose but TBH he has had a runny nose for weeks now!
I'm a wee bit concerned it might be conjunctivitis. We are supposed being going to my ILS (1.5 hrs away) for a family party, but if we tell FIL ds might have conjunctivitis he'll tell us not to come - he has health issues due to having post polio syndrome.
If I knew it was I would definitely keep him home and just send DH and DSS.
Has anyone got any thoughts? I think I'll phone BIL - he has 2 dds and a dsd all under 5 so he and his dp might have some experience in this!
