SPOTS!!

Yesterday I took Taris to the Dr. as she had some funny blister-like spots around her neck. Now, you should know a little background first. The first spot appeared around Monday or Tuesday. I first thought the cat must have scratched her, so really didn't think much of it. Thursday night I noticed one more, Friday morning there were about 4. All still around her neck....not itchy. We arrived in Virden Fri afternoon, my dad took one look and said "She's got Chicken Pox". My reply...no she doesn't, she's had the one spot too long, she's had no fever, and they're not itchy. So off to the Dr. we went. Low and behold the Dr. said, "She's got Chicken Pox"....me, same reply, except I said "I don't think so" and told her why. Well, by the time we left I had her conviced Taris didn't have Chicken Pox. We left with an antibiotic for an upper respitory infection and the diagnosis (or lack of one) that she didn't know what the spots were.

Fast forward to this morning.....Taris has Chicken Pox. There is absolutely no doubt in my mind, the spots are everywhere! So I'm feeling a little bad for the Dr. who was quite stumped, but really, that's what you get for believing a mom in denial!! (Guess we should have listened to Grampa to start with!)
