Mum got herself a bloody eye

[wiseheart]

Quite literally so. Probably from bursting a small blood vessel due to rubbing the eye so hard. Of course, it just had to happen in Friday night, when everything dies for the weekend. I know it's probably no big deal, but I'm still scared shitless.

Tomorrow morning will phone to colleague with doctor husband and ask what to do (if indeed anything has to be done) and where to go during the weekend. Drat, and we both have hoped for a little peace and quiet. *sigh*

So do I, thanks. It doesn't cause her any problems, she just feels as if her eye were full of that stuff you get in your eyes after sleep (I have no idea what it's called in English, sorry). We only spotted the problem because I was giving her the eyedrops she needs twice a day, so we aren't even sure when it happened.

Yep, we have such emergency places, but they're overcrowded all the time, and we were advised to give the eye a couple of days to heal anyway. We stopped the eyedrops for the weekend, and on Modnay we'll try to track down her doctor.

But it is a frigging scary sight. Even though I've had the same problem once, when I was young.
