[tri-med] Request for Hannah's brother

Please keep Hannah's brother, Zach, in your prayers. He had a fluke accident
this evening. He was doing laundry and while bringing clean clothes into our
room to be folded he dropped his key (we keep Hannah's meds locked up in
there and he, Donn and I are the only ones with key's.) When he picked it up
the second key (one at each end of about an 18 inch string) flipped up and
hit him in the eye. We took him to the walk in clinic and he has a pretty
big abrasion on his eyeball. They are getting him in to see an
ophthalmologist tomorrow. They have given us scripts for an antibiotic and a
pain drop but we only got the antibiotic because the only place that had the
pain drop only had the brand name and our co-pay on it would have been $75.
When the pharmacist mentioned that they only gave her the antibiotic when
she had a corneal abrasion we decided to wait and see what the doc says
tomorrow. He has a patch on it (Pirate in the house!!!) but is in a lot of
pain. To make it even better (worse!!) he has been having trouble sleeping
anyway and he can't get to sleep. Any time his eye moves it hurts him. Our
pharmacy is going to call around for us in the morning to see if they can
locate someone who has the generic drops. If the doc says he needs the pain
drops tomorrow (or if he is still in a lot of pain, we'll be getting them
tomorrow, generic or not.
 

Thanks everyone.
