Okay - so I had a DCG go out Friday with bacterial pink eye. The mom took her to the Dr Friday afternoon and started her meds that night. The mom just text me (today is Sunday) and said "Her eyes look a lot better. She has a couple more days of her eyedrop meds and then she'll be 100% all good. Now I got it though. Can she come back tomorrow?"

My reply was "She can return on Wednesday if her medication drops are complete and her eyes are 100% better. I cant risk any of the other kids catching this. Now that you have it, can she catch it again?" She responded with "No she wont get it again because I'm not contagious since I'm taking her drops too and we both wont get it again. I'll keep her home till Wednesday".

I really dont care if shes mad that I'm making her stay home till Wednesday because the other babies are my concern right now. But my question is - can she get it again from her mom while taking those drops? And shouldn't she not be sharing those drops?

Thanks!
