Drew woke up with a little blister Wednesday morning. I thought nothing of it and headed off to home school group where we fraternized with lots of our friends for many hours. That night, Val felt something on his head and then another, that is we we figured it was chicken pox. He only had a few the next day and a high fever. So we went to consult with Dr. Park who assured us this is a classic case of the bawk- bawk pox. I don't mess with rash and high fever...poor Drew is my little guinea pig. So now he's got the pox. His leg is hurting a lot so I actually took him to the hospital today. I started reading on line and felt that this was an abnormal symptom. He's really limping and we are carrying him everywhere. But the Dr. assured me it was normal and that maybe I should have vaccinated him, hrrumph.
Anyway, he is doing fine and is quite the trooper. He feels lousy and has watched more tv than ever but is still trying hard not to scratch and being sweet. He is a model patient.
Now we are just watching Nora, although it would be nice to get it out of the way, it really will be hard because she is so little, warm baths and Sesame Street won't quite cut it.
We have decided to not take pictures right now, he really feels punky.
