Last week was another stressful week for us specially for Joshua.. He had a fever for 5 consecutive days and we had no idea what was going on. We took him to the emergency to be checked and the doctor said that everything was fine, maybe it was just due to his 2 molar teeth coming out. I guess she was true. He got better the 6th day. And we thought that everything's gonna go back to normal 'til Joscel took her turn. Her temperature went up to 39 so we thought she'll be fine too. But on the third day of having fever (not to mention the sore on her tongue and gum, while puking and having diarrhea), it was her turn to be taken to the emergency. We found out that those sores weren't just canker, she got "foot and mouth disease". Until now, we are still wondering where she got that from. I feel very sorry for her since they said that those are extremely painful for 3-4 days and will stay in her tongue for a week or 2. She's also not eating right now. And she just started drinking milk yesterday!
We are also afraid that Joshua might have gotten it too since it's very contagious. He just started crying this afternoon and won't take his bottle. We checked his tongue and gum, we're not sure if those blisters are already signs that he got the disease. Ughhhh ! Poor kiddos. All we have to do right now is just pray and hope that they'll feel better soon. Hopefully after this, no more having a trip to the ACH emergency.
We'll keep you posted about their health as much as we can.
