Quarantined

JUST hours before we were due to leave for Bangkok on a 4 day shopping holiday, I spotted a couple of ulcers in Z's mouth.

HFMD.

Somehow I knew the holiday was doomed from the start.

I even kept her away from school/other children for the entire week to make sure she was germ free AND allowed a course of antibiotics (HER FRIST EVER!!!) to be prescribed for a bout of bronchitis but to no avail.

Argh!

Poor kid had an awful weekend, her mouth full of blisters and sores. Needless to say, her mother didn't have a fun time either.

Thank God we discovered it here and not when we arrived in BKK.


Stuck at home, all Z wanted was her pacifier - and me.
