Hand Foot & Mouth


Warren got sick last Sunday (when he vomited all over me and the kitchen floor, yuck).  We assumed it was just some sort of stomach bug, but when Thursday rolled around and he was still running a fever, I took him to his doctor.  She said it was hand foot and mouth disease.  Warren does in fact have sores all over his lips, tongue, gums & throat, but nothing on his hands or feet.  It's not pretty and it's painful; he hasn't been able to eat.  Mike started feeling pretty crappy on Friday, so he went to the doctor on Saturday who confirmed that Mike also has hand foot and mouth disease.  I am still symptom free, but seriously considered checking into a hotel to escape from the Burkholder house of illness.  Both my guys stayed home today... Warren seems to be on the mend now, hopefully he's taking care of Mike.
