  1. Hi Y'all!

    I've been tested and I'm allergic to grass and cottonwood. I have to take pills and regular shots to control the itchin'. I've been on this regimen since I was almost 2 years old. I'm 9 now. I get my eyes treated 3 times a day, at least. Knowing you have allergies, you need a human prepared to treat them if you want to stay comfy.

    Thanks for stoppin' by, y'all come on back,
