Elliott just can't seem to catch a break

As you can see by the picture below, Elliott's eye is in rough shape. This morning he had his third dose of medicine.

Let me just say that trying to give him eye drops 4 files a day is a nightmare. An absolute nightmare. He's so anxious and is terrified of the getting the eye drops. It doesn't seem to matter that he now knows what to expect or perhaps that's the problem.

On the advice of one of my readers, I store them in the refrigerator so that the drops are cold and more soothing but it doesn't really help with his anxiety.

He's pretty miserable and if he's miserable, everyone around his is miserable......
