I went to St. Joseph Nsambya Girl's school today and signed Namata Josephine out with her matron. Namata has been complaining that her eyes water when she looks at the chalkboard and that she has been getting frequent head aches. She and I We walked up to the eye clinic behind the school. They checked her eyes and concluded that there was nothing wrong with her vision. They did a few tests and informed us that she has an allergy that’s causing the headaches and eye watering. They gave us two medications. Both have to be dropped in her eyes twice per day. We walked back to the school and I wrote Namata some cheat sheets so that she would be able to refer to them if she forgot when and how to use the medicine. I also explained the circumstances to her matron and gave her the instructions. I hugged Namata and sent her back to class.
