After it went away he started to have to use the bathroom every five minutes. We tried to ignore it but after 5 weeks we couldn’t handle it anymore. We took him into the peditrician to… Read more →
Curtis came home with a note from school explaining that he failed the eye exam. After checking with the school to make sure it wasn’t just the color vision he failed we took him to an eye doctor to check him out. He is definitely color blind. He also failed the vision screening. He is far sighted and needs glasses… Read more →
