"Some people who have had the vaccine will still get sick."

Chicken pox has come to roost in our house.

Amiri was sent home early today with a fever and some spots.  He's gotten more and more rashy as the day has gone on.  Poor little guy.  The Palmol seems to be working well to keep him comfortable, though.

We had him vaccinated for varicella as a baby but apparently the vaccine doesn't work for everyone.  Hopefully it will stay mild.  Until it runs its course, I'm kind of looking forward to having special cuddly sick days with my little guy.

Arram shows no signs of illness, in fact shows no signs of even slowing down.

I hope that you feel better soon, Amiri. All our love from Aunt McKenzie and Uncle Fred. Your Grandpa Doug used to tell me a wonderful story about good germs and bad germs when I was little and sick. I bet your Mama knows the story also.
