It's basically a mild fever followed by blisters (a bit like a mild chicken pox).
Well, this isn't blisters--it's more like red blotches that seem to be spreading rather than getting better. But she did have the sniffles and maybe a low grade fever last week.

The pede's office opens at 9:00, so I'll just call then and go from there.
I should just let him slam his fingers in the door a couple of times and then he won't think it's fun anymore.
(Kidding! Kidding!)
(....mostly. When I was about 2, I burned my hand on our fireplace in Canada - probably because my mother had told me not to play with it - and the next summer the first thing I did when we got to the house was point at the fireplace and say "NO. HOT." So there is something to be said for learning from experience...)
Dylan's coxsackie rash didn't look blistery either, more like someone had taken a red Sharpie and drawn dots all over his hands and feet. He didn't get the mouth sores until about day three.
(Kidding! Kidding!)

It's funny because it's kind of true.
OK, I have an appointment for 12:20.
It's funny, depending on the light and angle, I either think I'm crazy for actually taking her to a doctor for this, or it completely freaks me out.
Really, I hope the doctor laughs at me, though I always do kinda hate that "you paranoid patient/parent obsessing over nothing" reaction.
Fay! I just sent you a facebook message!
I totally got drunk on fernet last night and texted juliana (as you do). I had the entire bar doing shots in her honor!

I can't decide what I'm most excited about.
Dear Dr. Coxsackie,
I am sure you are a brilliant researcher (or something).
Please do not name a disease after yourself until I am older than 12.
Thank you,
Trudy

I felt so honored! It was awesome. Now I need to actually get down there so that they may bask in my presence (or something).
