Dougy isn’t thrilled about being held on his back under any circumstances. Unfortunately, that is the best position to hold him to medicate him. For that reason, I have to wrap him in a large bath towel to put the gel and eye drops in his eye. 

The gel is a pain, and, if Dougy moves his head just a little, the gel ends up on his face. The drops aren’t as difficult to manage. Regardless, I got him medicated and we have just till September 30th to suffer (yes, both Dougy and me!) this need.

I was worried he might become fearful of me because of this, but the medication must make his eye feel better because he’s his old buddy-buddy self with me. Whew!
