rOAD tRIP

We decided it would be best if we headed up to Showlow and pick up Riley after he asked to call us and tell us that he still wanted to come home. Soooo we left Wednesday morning about 7 am. Stopped in at my moms to use her car and hit the road about 8:15am. We got to Showlow and Shar said start heading to Sunrise Ski Resort. We finally made it and I was surprised to see how Riley's eyes looked. Not just the eye part but actually around them. He had these red bumps and some looked liked they had some pus in them. Well I really did not like the way they looked so I called my doctor's office and scheduled him an apointment for that afternoon at 4:30pm. Steven wanted to visit a few places for insurance and then we were off. We mad it back by about 4:35pm and got to see Dr. Kartchner. He looked at his eyes and asked if he had any of the bumps anywhere else on his body. I wasn't sure cause we hadn't looked. He left the room awhile and we didn't find anymore on his body. Dr. came back in and as we were talking his pager went off. He said he needed to answer it cause it was about Riley. He came back in again and said he wanted him t0 see Dr. Walker at Southwest Eye and that he was on his way back from Wilcox. He'd be at his office in about 30 min. Dr. Kartchner gave us a prescription for antibiotics cause he thought on his forehead was impetigo. We dropped that off at Wal-Mart and then went and waited outside Dr. Walker's office cause it was 5:30pm. Dr. Walker finally got there and Riley sat on my lap in the eye exam chair. He asked Riley to put his chin in the chin strap and his forehead up on the band. I thought we were going to have a fight. To my surprise Riley did totally awesome. I was so proud of him!! It finally all came down to Riley having basically fever blisters coming out around his eyes. How stinkin' crazy! We had to go back to MGFP and find Dr. Kartchner's window and knock so he could give us another RX. We finally got home after picking up Aiden at about 7pm. It was one crazy long day and was so glad for it to be over!!
