Fuck My Hat

The Prawn has chicken pox.

This would not normally be a problem.

But I've never had them.

I'm at itchcon 1.

Oh, you poor baby! I'll send oatmeal baths and Calamine lotion!

Never had them? How have you managed that?

It's such a cliche, but it's good to get them out of the way early. P had them over her first birthday and now that all these kids around her are getting them I needn't worry!

Godspeed dear.

According to the BBC site, 1 in 10 cases of chicken pox go unnoticed. She's got a grand total of 3 pox on her back. Let's hope it stays that way!

Good luck...

Uncomforting anecdote: my cousin recently got chicken pox for the second time. Because she'd had it as a child it was a while before medical science tumbled to the diagnosis. Initially they thought she had scabies.

Hope your Prawn is better soon and that you escape.

The joys of parenthood are never-ending.
