I'm glad Ana is doing better! We've been through some of those baby stomach flu's ... YUCK!

James has an oozing eye the last couple of days. I think it's just an irritation - can't imagine where he would get pinkeye, because he's barely left the house the last week.

Yeah... this was our first serious one. Zonja took her in to the doctor the other day and got the 411 on the mini-epidemic and the regional info.

Oozing eye? Normally pink has, well... the pinkening of the sclara as its main symptom. Infected tear duct? Sinus infection? Bug bite?

Eye problems kinda freak me out a bit as I'm a bit over protective of my own eyes. Working in the garage on the cars, or at the range, I always wear eye protection. My eyes are probably one of my best features and I'd hate to lose one.

Pink-eye has an incubation period of 7 -10 days. Where were any and all of you ten days prior to the onset of symptoms? If it's just tears, probably safe. If it's gunk, better to be safe than sorry. Start treating and wash the house down with a mild bleach solution. You do not need this right now.
