I'm sorry to report that Lucas has hand, foot and mouth disease again and is running a temperature of 101.8. Since he needs to stay away from Anthony and other kids, Sarah will be coming to Ionia with Anthony while Loren stays home with Lucas. I won't need any help as Lucas won't be with me this weekend. We will need some help next week when Lucas comes.
There is nothing you can do for Lucas except give him Tylenol and something else I can't remember. The problem is trying to get him to drink fluids because it hurts to swallow. It is a virus that he got last winter. I guess there have been cases in daycare.
The tests for Anthony are inconclusive at this time. Her doctor is getting a pediatric specialist involved. Sarah will have to take him back home next week for another test and to get weighed. I will keep Lucas here with me so I could use some help then.
Dan & Janet: I will be at your house tomorrow as planned but will only have Anthony. I will keep everyone informed. I felt so sorry for her when she called me after leaving the doctor's office. Anthony was screaming and Lucas was so sick and traffic was bad.
I am reminded again "from afar" how easy it really would be to raise cocker spaniels ….. and a lot less painful.
