Quarantine

Andre's brother and sister in law are visiting with their two kids. Quite literally the second they came through the door, Amelia came down with a fever. I'm not exaggerating here. They walked in the door around midnight Friday night, we got them squared away in bed, Amelia started crying and had a temperature of 102. This is the first time she's ever run a fever and of course it had to be when we have guests.

Yesterday one of the nieces started to feel crummy. I was impressed that she could have caught Amelia's illness in a mere 24 hours, but no! It's something completely different! She most likely has hand, foot, and mouth disease. It's generally not a huge deal, but it's really contagious. So in 3 to 7 days, the rest of the kids should have it too, perhaps with a side of whatever Amelia has.

I'd try to stay as far away from this house as possible if I were you.
