cut cornea
While Olivia was at school today, she cut the cornea of her eye with a piece of paper. She was very strong all day, not crying. At one point (2 different times) the doctors put a florescent yellow drop in her eye then held a blue light up to it to see the scratch. Then her nose was running yellow fluid! Finally, we ended up with an antibiotic ointment to use in case of an infection.
This was the amazing part. At night Olivia would remind me to put the ointment in her eye. So she would voluntarily lay down and hold her own eye open while I squeezed the medicine tube. She would let me know if her vision was blurry, which meant I put enough medicine in her eye. Then she would say, "Thanks mom" as she sat up!! This just blew me away! I love her.
