You have to laugh

Or else you would cry..either that or you would take to a quiet corner with a bottle of scotch at 10am...

School..(a whole new post in itself.)..has meant Chloe has been sick. There is a whooping cough epidemic on the north coast (and in some other parts of Australia too) Whooping cough really scares me. Chloe's lungs are comprimised enough, she really doesn't need anything else. Thursday morning I found out Chloe was exposed to someone who had been exposed to whooping cough. By the afternoon after the school had rung the health department, and the exposure wasn't enough to cause any issue at all(thank goodess)
Then about 6pm Jess comes in off the trampoline. Mummy I am itchy. She takes off her school shirt. There are little pimples, filled with fluid. Yes exactly like chicken pox. She's immunised (we all need to keep up to date with our immunisations as Chloe doesn't form antibodies to them like the rest of us do) Friday morning I took her to the dr. Yes he confirmed it.
So we watch, and we wait. And we pray.
