fifth's disease
First off it's not as scary as it sounds. Fifth's disease is like chicken pox or measles in a way. So Rianne had her fever about a week and a half ago (An ill child may have a low-grade fever, malaise, or a "cold" a few days before the rash breaks out. The child is usually not very ill, and the rash resolves in 7 to 10 days.) and is now experiencing the joy of the rash. Bad news, adults can get it and so I did! I had Dan checking my temperature so it didn't get too high, I wanted to let the fever work, but when my temp hit 102 we went for the advil.Luckily I'm feeling much better - still have some joint pain, but in all the usual spots so I'm just bearing it with a little advil. Ri's currently soaking in the tub as her rash got quiet bad yesterday and is still calming down. Well that's our excitement for this weekend!
