Everyone in my family woke up with pink-eye today.

Ohh... *yuck*. YUCK. I hope you can get some prompt treatment. And maybe have books on tape on hand to distract you.

Oh, ARGH! Stay in, all of you, take your meds and watch a lot of videos and try and sleep the day away. Poor family!

Shit. :-(

[heinous_bitca.livejournal.com]

Urgh. Get some cream, get some rest, and be very careful about wiping your eyes and touching things.

Why yes, I've had pink eye before, how could you tell?

I'm here to commiserate. I got diagnosed with mono yesterday. :-( I hope everyone is feeling better very soon!

[skylarker.livejournal.com]

Yes; I hope you all feel better soon.

I'd feel guilty (I'm just now getting over a case of pink-eye) except I'm pretty sure I've had no contact with your family.

All of you have my deepest sympathy.

Find the vector and quarantine them!

Sympathies. Ow! Here's to a speedy recovery for you all.

Add me to that list as well. My eyes are itchy and killing me.

Aaauuuuugh!!!

Oh no. Not the Evil Eye. We've had it twice this year, thanks to that festering pit of carrier monkeys I like to call my son's preschool. Poor Peg, and poor family.

Remember, sometimes compulsive handwashing can be a healthy thing!

Wishing you all a speedy recovery.

Oh, bleh. Conjunctivitis is evil.

Let me share my grandmother's cure -- I don't know whether it actually /works/ or just makes your eyes feel better and gets heat and moisture in, but it does seem to help.

Take two camomile teabags, put them in hot or boiling water (I'm thinking hot for the girls because, you know, boiling water and all). After the tea has mashed for a couple of minutes, stir and take out the teabags, allowing them to cool slightly. Don't squeeze the water out of them. Lie back and put the teabags over your eyes, making sure to blink every so often so that the camomile-water gets into your eyes.

Oooh. Bet that feels *wonderful*...

I wonder if that works for allergy-irritated, puffy, gunky eyes, too? Might give it a try; I'm glad to see spring, but the tree pollen in Minneapolis has been just evil.

My sympathies. I hate having stuff wrong with my eyes.

Be sure to change all the pillowcases every night. My eye doctor told me that. Other than that, I feel your pain. Pinkeye sucks.

Poor honey. Keep the lights low. It made me feel better when I had it.

[ex-sallygard858.livejournal.com]

Ugh. Sympathies.
