Finis!

The kids just took their last dose of the antibiotics for the ear infections. 10 days of antibiotics - blugh. I can see now why parents whose children are very susceptible to these things get tubes put in as soon as they can. This 10 days of medicine thing is a pain in the tookus. Especially for the kids - Toot has had his share of tummy problems with the medicine, and Poodle has slept terribly while on it.

On the upside, Toot's skin has seen some improvement. The problem with eczema is that it creates tiny fissures in the skin that can become infected because they are so hard to protect and close up. These antibiotics have taken quite a bit of red out of his skin, which is nice! I have a topical antibiotic cream to use on him, but as it is with all medicines, overuse of that can cause other problems down the road.

Anyway, for a short time, his normally red'ish skin has a more normal appearance. It's nice.

And the kids are done!!!
