the leaders of men
maura @ 9:52 pm
So I meant to write a real post tonight, but then all of a sudden we noticed that Gus’s cheeks are very red. Further examination revealed that apparently he has a blotchy (and somewhat itchy) rash nearly all over his body. Doctor Intarwebs suggests Fifth Disease, but we are withholding final judgment until we visit a real live doctor tomorrow.
Of course this is all complicated by the fact that Gus’s current pediatricians don’t take our new insurance, and since he hasn’t been sick or needed a checkup we haven’t gotten around to finding a replacement yet. I guess we’ll be cold calling the pediatricians of Brooklyn in the morning.
Blargh, why do these things always happen at 8pm on a school night?

True dat.
Then, to make things even MORE mysterious, the rash was gone this morning! Since he had no fever or anything, and we could hardly take him to the dr with no symptoms, we shipped him off to school. Which he was initially grumpy about but J says he was happy by the time they got there.
Hope it’s really gone, because we head to Thanksgiving @ my sister’s tomorrow, and my youngest nephew is only 9 mos. old.
Better than midnight on a holiday!
