Pink Eye

So 2 weeks ago Kelsey's left eye started getting runny and then goopy, so I called the nurse and she said to bring her in so the doctor could make sure what is was. He said it was pink eye, or conjunctivitis for all you medical professional terminologists out there. He gave me the drops for her eyes and I did the whole 7 day round and she seemed like she was all better. Well yesterday she started in with the runnies and goopies again in that eye. I was so frustrated because it's hard to keep her little hands out of her eyes and clean. She rubs her eyes and then touches everything and I try to keep her isolated on her blanket and with her toys and wash my hands a lot, but it's hard. She's little and I just want to hold her and love her and not worry about germs and Jeremy wants to play with her and can't. Plus this is the social event time of the year and I want to get the kids dressed and go go go to all the fun stuff. I know, it could be lots worse, she could have cancer or something terrible and I do count my blessings, but I'm just frustrated it came back. She hates the drops in her eyes and she hates me cleaning her eyes and everything. Poor little thing. On another note, I was waiting for her prescription and I overheard this man talking about leaving in April to travel around the world with this wife and their two kids, ages 2 and 3. They're going to just fly from one place to another and be gone for a few months. The other man said, oh yeah, his friend did that, but he took his family around the world on their boat. Who has that kind of money? Seriously, can you say recession? Who can afford to just up and leave their lives for that long and vacation in style? I was bemoaning the fact that I had to fork over 50 bucks during Christmas time in the last couple of weeks to take care of Kelsey's eyes and these people are all over the world. Amazing. I am so blessed, I know, but it's just amazing how much money some people have.
