Maeve is sick and won’t becoming to the creche today – and that was the surprise of yesterday that turned the Leeson household on its head. Maeve was fine on Sunday – a tad warm, but otherwise her usual bouncy “energizer bunny” self. We we awoke on Monday morning at 6am we immediately saw a torso covered with small red spots some with “pimples”. Did a quick check to see if it was Meningitis (do spots go/stay when pressure applied) and then made the assumption it was Chicken-Pox until visited the doctor – or more accurately my wife visited the doctor with Maeve.
As it turns out Maeve does have Chicken-Pox which means 1-2 weeks isolation from the creche depending on how severe the case is and a bit of juggling of the work schedules. Fortunately both I and my wife have had Chicken-Pox before – apparently I was 4 years old and caught it off my 2 year old brother with the symptoms appearing on christmas day 1968 – and my client Amartus are being very understanding.
Poor Maeve though, Chicken-Pox is tough at any age and thinking about it makes me want to itch.
