Not again…

Apparently I am just prone to this stuff. Mommy keeps me VERY clean and we wash hands after potty and several other times during the day. But still, I get sick! UGH! Mommy feels really bad because a few of my REALLY good friends were exposed to me in the last few days. SORRY! I think we called all of you… but just in case be on the lookout.

So what is wrong? I have another MILDER case of Hand, Foot and Mouth disease (HFMD). Last time I had it was April of 2006. The symptoms I have just seems to be the little tiny blisters that Mommy thought were any bites. By tonight after my bath I have a nice red rash on my arms, legs, shoulders and back. I don’t itch. I don’t have the fever kids normally get. I haven;t gone poopy today so I don’t have the diarrhea. I don’t have the sores in my mouth like some strains of the virus cause. So I guess I am lucky. None of my blisters have popped yet so I don’t think I passed it on. Plus Mommy keeps my hands pretty darn clean. I shared a snack today with a friend and Mommy said hopefully everything will be alright.

Here are a few pictures Mommy took after my bath tonight.

My arm. The HUGE mark is a scratch from my potty seat. The little red dots are my “illness”.

My feet… hard to tell.

Mommy said it can’t be an all bad post. So here are a few other shots of me from tonight.

A happy boy in the tub! 🙂

Every kid should lounge on the sofa, watch out the window and keep there oral hygiene in check! Right?

Still brushing… rather CHEWING on the brush 15 minutes later.

I love my Mommy and Daddy.

Daddy was working outside “potting plants” or rather “legal herbs”. He uses them for cooking. I watched Daddy for a few minutes but the buggers were biting really bad so I came back in with Mommy.

Well, I am in quarantine until my blisters dry up. Probably until Tuesday or Wednesday. We will see. I am a fast healer! 🙂 But I don’t want to risk getting my friends sick.

Sorry again! :
