I Almost Cried this Morning

Monday, April 30, 2007

I almost cried this morning when Colm woke up and I saw that his right eye was swollen and I knew we would have to go to the pediatrician’s….again. You see, we have been there about six or seven times this month. Let’s see…let me count…we went there once as a follow up to Liam’s trip to urgent care, then we went back about a week later to have his breathing tested. Then Colm got pink eye and then Colm had his three-year checkup and then Liam was having asthma trouble on Friday. Then there was our trip there today. There is a new receptionist there and she knows me now. That’s not a good sign. We have also been to the pediatric surgeon’s this month as a follow up to Colm’s surgery last month. Most importantly, however, Colm will be fine. (If you look at his birthday picks you can see how there is a red rash sort of thing around his eye up onto his forehead.) The dr thinks he got a bug bite which might require us to go back to the dr if it gets any more swollen. I am seeing if they have some sort of frequent flyer program.
