Hi Sally, I just wanted to comment on getting the antibiotic ointment in Junior's eye... If you put a line of the ointment on your finger and gently apply it to his closed eye, (on the line where his eyelids meet), at least some will go in his eye and it should help at least keep his eye mois

Pat, I have read that the saliva test is not as accurate yet. In fact, I didn't realize they were marketing it at this point. I can't quote percentages or remember where I came across that in my reading - perhaps some of those more expert on the list will add what they know. elizabeth *
