Note the date folks, Sept 5th was the day Alex had the NASTIEST virus to date. Its called Hand, Foot, and Mouth disease and our doctor told me today that it was the 2nd worse case HE’S SEEN IN 10 YEARS!!! Hey Alex….we got 2nd place?? Way to settle bro. Anyways, its beyond ugly and gross looking and I feel awful for him, but he’s been a joy throughout this thing. Of course, it came from fucking daycare. I’m not sure why I felt compelled to document this virus on a blog post, but I figure it might be funny down the road. Maybe?
Oh, the poetry you ask? Yeah, I made up a poem to express my feelings during this ordeal. My Mom named him “Spotty McNickel”. Here goes:
Spotty McNickel
Had a rash on his pickle (more like all over but this needs to ryhme)
And his Mom didn’t know what to do.
So she got cream from Dr. Johnny
Spotty said, “Cream me up, Scotty”
And his pickle was as good as new.
I should note, his dr’s name really his John, but he didn’t give us cream. This is just something we have to ride out on our own. Eventually, they scab over and dry out. Hungry yet?? Anyways, the pics below are so sad to look at (and might make you itchy) but he’s still got a smile on his face all day. Silver lining of all this? We had to cancel all our weekend plans so we literally have shit to do for 2 days. What? Yes. Thanks Spotty!!
