Throat Virus

Damn that coxsackie virus. The Lone Star Baby seems to get it every time. And what with that long rotovirus last month, we are not even recovered enough for another illness. I think starting a new school has a lot to do with it - new germs and all, but damn. I am staying home with the Lone Star Baby today because she has a throat virus. She woke me at about 4:30 am this morning with fever and that scary fever-breathing. She is pretty okay, but has a fever and a raw throat and a little congestion. We are having a low key day and resting although I think she feels well enough that she'd like to go outside and play. She will have to miss storytime tonight! Since she is still febrile this evening, going back to school tomorrow is not going to be an option. Lone Star Pa will have to stay home with her then.

Poor sweet girl. It's just not fair to be hit with another illness when you've not even built up immunities from the last one. St. Blaise, get on the stick! (Please.)
