So ds has woken up with his eyes glued shut, raging red and gunky, he's also coughing badly and generally very gakky, snot everywhere. I called the dr, and spoke to a triage nurse, who i have never spoken to before, she was bloody awful. All i want is for some antibiotic eye drops (which she said they don't usually do, until I pointed out that last time ds had an eye infection it lasted for 9 months), and for someone to listen to the lower part of his lungs, which she said someone could do on Thurs....great. Ds has a redflag on his notes to indicate that he has recurring lung problems, and that any signs of infection be treated aggressively. Anyway, I phoned back and asked for a dr to call, and he is going to be seen at lunchtime.
On the upside, it gets us out of going to the Meet The Parents thing at ds's prospective preschool - which i was dreading.
Oh and on the upside of the upside, the senco has just called to say that ds has been awarded the highest level of funding available, for when he starts! (which is great, if slightly depressing).
