While at home recovering myself, we got a call from daycare saying that J had a fever and a rash. I had heard that the Hand, Foot and Mouth Disease was going around, so I picked him up and took him to the doctors to verify what he had. Sure enough he had it!
For those of you who do not know what it is, “Hand, foot, and mouth disease (HFMD) is a common viral illness of infants and children. The disease causes fever and blister-like eruptions in the mouth and/or a skin rash.”
When I brought him home on Wednesday his leg looked like this…….
Then on Thursday his leg looked like this…….
Of course the pediatrician said this was one of the worst cases she had seen, as did daycare. Lol, when the Shappards get sick we go BIG!
