What I want to know is, how in the crap did my 10 month old contract Coxsackie Disease ??(and no, I'm not being dirty - it's also called Hand, Foot, and Mouth Disease, if you'd prefer it)
Needless to say, now Max has it pretty bad and Gerritt is starting to get it.
I took both boys to the Ped on Friday, hoping it was Strep throat and that we'd get a nice little presciption for antibiotics and be on our way, but alas, it's viral and there's nothing they can do. (Isn't that always the case?)
So, we had to ditch all our plans for this weekend and are just laying around the house, watching TV and being bored. (I may or may not have passed the entire game of Zuma on my iPod in one try) And thanks to the last-minute relief of subs for our sunbeam class, we can forego spreading this around the ward!
Enjoy your Sunday, and get some extra spirituality for us! :)

So bummed. No fun at all.
BTW--I was in a dressing room at Dillard's the other day when I recognized a woman's voice (as she talked on her cell phone) in the dressing room across from me. None other than our beautiful ped. C.O. I miss her.
My niece has had that and I hear it is so painful! I'm sorry you guys are feeling better soon!
I prefer coxsackie--hand foot and mouth? That just sounds gross, lol!
May the diseases pass by quickly!!
thanks so much for your sweet comment, em. also- thanks for the little footnote to chris- i totally lol-ed, as they say.
hope your lil' gang is feeling better soon! sounds like a scary thing to get :/
Oh no!! I hope every one gets better soon.
my sister's kids got that about 10 years ago and when the dr told her she screamed, "ONLY COWS GET THAT!!!"
good luck--no fun atall...
It seems like that's how it goes. You go to the peds thinking it's one thing..then it's totally something else!
Be well!
oh man. I thought it was a livestock disease too, until will had that when he was little and it SUCKED BIG TIME. not fun at ALL. Hope they are feeling better by now.
Wow, that doesn't sound like fun! As you're quarantined in the house, let me know if you need anything. Crazy!
What a total bummer! Your poor kids.
I totally read that wrong at first and thought you were going to post about some disgusting popsicle.
I feel your pain--your poor kids!!! My kids got that a couple of years ago and it was miserable. I hope they are better now! :)
