I think we have fifth disease...its a viral infection that cause a rash starting in the face (picture above) and then it spreads all over...arms, legs, trunk. Last week I had the rash. Two days ago Sky started to get red blotches all over her body. Today both Aiden and Sky were running a fever 100 - 102. Sky's cheeks are very red and the rash has spread all over. I'm sure Aiden's rash will appear in the next day or so...if you were thinking about coming over for a visit, now is not the time. Unless you're feeling brave.
Oh my Poor Babies!! I am so sorry that you are not feeling well. I know you are both healthy and will recover rapidly, but Mommy and Daddy worry, I know. I know your parents will take excellent care of you when you are sick, but I wish I could be sick for you. I will be thinking of both of you and your parents over the next few days as you recover. God Bless You!
ReplyDeleteThere has been huge breakouts of that up here! It went through my sisters preschool room and my moms daycare! I hope you guys are doing ok and getting over it fast! It's such a horrible thing to get!
ReplyDeleteYes, its definitely not an easy sickness. Little Sky's skin feels so hot to the touch (same way mine did last week). She is very uncomfortable and very restless. Her cheeks are so red she doesn't even look like herself.
ReplyDeleteAiden still has a low grade fever, no appetite but other than that he seems okay. A little cranky but no rash.
Lets hope this thing is out of our house soon!
