also known as hand foot and mouth disease has hit 5 of the littlest kids....I posted down below about that.

Now Luke-3, has blisters all over his feet. They look awful, and ohhh so sore.    There doesn't seem to be anything that we can do about them. He is miserable, and won't even walk.
I guess the blisters can break open and get pretty yucky.

Please say a prayer for him!

They other kids seem to be a little better, mostly just headaches and sore muscles....

Poor kids and Mama too! I am sorry. It is hitting the daycares in our area very hard this summer. My ds had this about 3 summers ago. No fun...his case was much milder than your children. We will pray and offer up our day tomorrow for your family.

Take care,

Mb

Good grief, Joann! Praying as well for a speedy recovery - wish I could drop by and do a load or 10 of laundry for you and share a cup of tea!

Luke is running around today! The blisters are still there, but obviously they aren't hurting him.

Thanks for all the prayers by everyone over the last few weeks.

I always keep you all in my daily prayers....

Things are looking brighter! And I did take a nap yesterday!!
The skies are not clear yet though.    Amy-14 still doesn't feel up to par...she is very achey, and her throat is still bothering her-it also makes her very, very tired.

Also, Pat Jr-21, just got back from the dr. He has some super/duper throat infection-- HIs throat is even swollen- so now he is on antibiotics and a steroid. The doctor did say that it could certainly be associated with Coxsackie Virus.

This virus is sure causing havoc around here.

Is the world just getting crazier with so many viruses? Same in Australia and people are getting them winter and summer...I'm praying that this will pass Joann, and quickly!
