Tai was a member of The Toddler Room for all of 3 days before catching his first disease. Last Thursday he was diagnosed with herpangina, (which sounds too much like Herpes). It's caused by coxsackie (which sounds dirty) and is similar to hand-foot-and-mouth disease (which sounds very much like a livestock issue to me.)
On Thursday our pediatrician (whom we love) warned us, "this is not a fun one." To which Minh quickly replied, "yeah, and RSV was a blast." And on Friday Minh was wondering what the big deal was--Tai already seemed much better. But later that night we figured out what the doctor was talking about. He was right, it's not a fun one (are there actually fun diseases?)
Long story short, Tai was pretty miserable for a couple days, not inclined to eat much, and (worst of all) too uncomfortable to sleep at night. But he's all better now and our only remaining problems is breaking his new habit of sleeping in our bed.
