I’m starting to think that we’re never going to have an entire week where Will is completely healthy.

Saturday, after we had dinner with the Bridgemans, Will 0.4 had a rough night.  He was so congested that he couldn’t sleep without waking himself up, and his eyes and nose kept crusting themselves shut.  Yesterday and last night were more of the same, so this morning it was back to the pediatrician.

This time, Will has an infection in both eyes which is causing the drainage and crusting and congestion.  They gave us a prescription for eyedrops, and I’m keeping him home today.

It feels like we keep overreacting when he’s not feeling well, but we don’t really know what else to do.  And all these infections are really starting to make me worry that he’s got an immune system deficiency.

We’ve backed off trying solid foods any more until he feels better.
