Chicken Pox!

It is official. Dean has Chicken Pox! Ouchie! We thought he had the flu as he has been sick the last three days but this morning he broke out in red spots and the odd little blister. He went to the doc and she confirmed he had chicken pox.

It has been going around Kyan’s kindy for the past month so as soon as I saw the spots I suspected that might be what it was. Thank goodness Kyan and Jaz have both been vacinated. I think if Kyan was going to get it he would have done so by now, and I think that Kyan probably passed it on to Dean. Certainly explains why Dean had the flu and I don’t! I am usually the first of the two of us to get these things! Since I have already had Chicken Pox I probably won’t get it.

The hubbie of one of the girls at work got it as an adult and has been filling me in on how bad it can be for adults and giving me tips best treatment options. Apparently calamine can make scarring worse! So I guess that is out since he has heaps on his face especially. She said he had the spots for 3 weeks! EEEK We have pinetarsol at home so will make sure he bathes in that plenty. Hopefully he doesn’t get too bad.

I hope everyone at work has had it I would hate to pass it on to them!
