Kids down with HFMD

Sigh ....... its Xmas but kids are down with HFMD. 1st was Chloe over the weekend before Xmas. Kept saying her mouth is painful and started to develop rash around the buttocks. Rushed her to the clinic fearing the worst which came true. Rashes became full blown and spread to both legs. Thank god that she still has her elephant appetite and fever subsided real quick.

Frantic hand washing routine and disinfecting began. We pray real hard that Ian will be spared. Our Xmas wish didnt come true though.

Ian is now down with HFMD as well and the rashes are far worse than Chloe's. His feet and hands all covered with blister-like rash and he screams whenever he accidentally knocked on the sores. Tongue has ulcers too. Naturally he lao gai big time ... couldnt sleep well at night.

Babies get well soon ok .... mommy so sim tia ....
