Never ending illnesses

Isabella couldn't get used to being healthy, so she decided to get sick again. This time she's fighting Conjunctivitis (AKA pink eye). Her eye was looking a little junkie last Saturday so at our doctors appointment on Tuesday Doctor Nelson prescribed an ointment to put in her eye to clear it up. We have to put it in 4 times a day and Isabella loves it (...kidding). We usually try to give it to her when I change her diaper, since she's usually screaming anyway (she loves those diaper changes). Her eye already looks much better and hopefully at the end of her 7 day treatment it will be gone for good. Just one question though, they make a treatment in the form of drops but for a baby this little you can only use the gel in a tube. It is so hard to get that gel in her eye, why is it that you can't use the drops? Lame.
