DROPPING LIKE FLIES

yesterday afternoon taylor came home from school complaining of an itchy rash on his shoulder.
i took a look and concluded that it was probably hives.

last night, his hives spread down his back.
this morning, his hives were popping up on his arms, legs and face.


this afternoon, we found out his hives are actually the chicken pox.

nice.

doctor has said he must stay out of school for at least a week.

nice.

parker home with mono.
taylor home with chicken pox.

you know, at the start of september, i wasn't at all ready to send my kids back to school.
i think i've changed my mind.
this is getting ridiculous.

and really this could just be the beginning...
neither avery nor parker has had the chicken pox yet.
and
because of my weakened immune system, the doctor said that i am at risk to develop shingles.

nice.

currently, i am psychosomatically itching out of my skin
but
we'll keep you posted.
