[Magdalen] Saline.

[Kate Conant]

Interesting.

I was just looking up about saline solution because I suffered a corneal
abrasion at 9 am yesterday and went to the ER at 8:30 pm.  I leaned over at
the end of the driveway to move a trash can and poked the left edge of my
left eye on a tree twig.

I'm using antibiotic drops and tried the nighttime ointment (yuck--I think
I'll have to sleep on that).

Kate, who wants to be ok for Christmas as well as my daughter Beth's
wedding to George Lambert on New Year's Eve.
