Hand, Foot, Mouth disease (HFMD)

Caden has been diagnosed today with HFMD by our GP, to our shock. It all started yesterday morning when he came down with fever and we decided not to bring him to school. Subsequently he started vomiting the fluids out this morning each time he drinks. We didn't suspect theat he has HFMD as he usually has these symptons when he's unwell. Thankfully, the GP told us that this is a confirmed case of HFMD as he found small little ulcers at the back of his throat.

As we have scheduled to hold Ethan's full month baby party tomorrow, we frantically started informing all invited guests that we need to cancel the party as there will be too many children coming and we certainly do not wish to pass on the virus to anyone of them who come to grace the event.

Caden still looks fine today, think its still the preliminary stage of HFMD, for this weekend, we have no choice but to sent him over to my in-laws place to separate him from Ethan. Not sure how Caden got the HFMD virus as we called school and they told us that there is no reported cases. We suspect the HFMD will be full-blown in days to come and he will become more cranky.. hopefully he will recover soon again..

Dozed off on the safa this afternoon when watching tv..

Sigh, what a month!
