ALMOST THE WHOLE FAMILY IS SICK

Hubby and I have been infected... We suffer from an eye infection. I got hit the worse, my eyes are swollen, all puffy and viciously red. And we got it all from Abang Iqie...

3 days back Iqie's left eye was a bit swollen and we could see some discharge in his eye. We went to the pharmacy and bought him an ointment. That worked fine for him and he was OK the next day. 2 days ago, Hubby and I were complaining to each other that our left eyes were ichy and that there were some discharge. And *poooof* it was only a few hours after that that our left eyes were all red and mine swollen. Funny that we were infected on the left eye first only, then the other one.

So, yesterday morning, we dropped both Abang Iqie and Afeeq at "school" and off we went to the clinic. We were positively identified infected by the doctor. She prescribed us with the medication although mine is a bit different from Hubby as I told her that I'm pregnant. She gave us an eye drop, eye cream and some pills for my swollen eye and ichiness for Hubby. We were given a 2-day sick leave each and if our eyes are still red on the third day, we would still need to be inspected by her again and... more days of sick leave... hmmm... a movie would be nice...

One thing I admire about Hubby is that he is very discipline when it comes to medicine taking. Unlike me, I will try to avoid consuming anything that is labeled as medicine or tablets or pills or whatever! Anyone who knows me well knows that I have this "phobia" thingy about medicines especially tablets/pills. My best friend once had to cut a paracetamol into four and put each piece in a banana for me to swallow when I had a fever! I love her for that...!!!

So, this time around, Hubby is the one monitoring my medication. I just have to lie down on the sofa or the bed, and he does the eye drops for me. I love you sayang...!!
