Chicken Pox

Caden was diagnosed with Chicken Pox last monday at Dr Sim's. We were pretty suspicious with his unusual 4 dot rash over the weekend and decided to let Dr Sim have a look. After his examination, Dr Sim told us that he was 75% sure that it was CP, and we started to panick. Dr advised us to bring Ethan back for the CP vaccination although Ethan has been fully exposed to him over the weekend. The incubation period is 2 weeks and it will only be the day before Chinese New Year we will know if Ethan is infected with the same CP virus.

Caden wasn't unwell to begin with - came down with only a slight fever at 37.8 on Tue .. then these few days are like heaven for him - cartoons, painting, sleeping plus company of PaPa or Mummy 24/7. He gets to sleep in Mummy's precious bed most of the time, during the afternoon naps and night sleep.


His painting apron + all the lotion applied on the affected areas



Let's just hope Didi doesn't get infected...
