mum feels like she has been tested to the ends of the earth and back again this week and all due to the coxsackie virus infection, named after the town of Coxsackie, New York, where the virus was first identified.
zara started off with a high temperature and general grumpiness, which as mothers world wide know means NO SLEEP, so she was packed up and off to the doctor to be diagnosed with sore throat and ears, no antibiotics though just home with kamol (pamol) and nuerofen. the next day mum noticed little mouth ulcers on zara's tongue and she put it down to lack of sleep and general unwellness but when the blisters got bigger and pusier, and started appearing on her feet it became very clear....
Zara Daisy has Hand FOOT and MOUTH DISEASE
now everyone is keeping a very close eye on my tongue, and Zara has been banned from the park, which is probably where she got it from in the first place..... (an example of zara's park behaviour below)
but it hasn't been all bad as you can see below, the dad's had a park outing with us on sunday, and on friday we went to caidens house for dinner and all ended up in the bath together :-) i even got to wear a pair of caiden's pj's home.
We hope you get well soon Zara, it is not very nice seeing you so miserable xx
