Chicken Pox look a little like this
(if you were wondering)
 |
My son has the Chicken Pox. 30 years ago, nay 15 years ago this would be entirely unremarkable. However these days most children are vaccinated, and when my Dear Husband took our polka-dot-boy to the pediatrician the doctor went back to office to look in "the book" to make sure she was diagnosing properly. As it turns out, without any secondary skin infections or complications from fever, the Chicken Pox aren't that dangerous.
I'm sure a few of you other mom's are immediately wondering why I, the mother of the year, did not escort my itchy offspring to the doctors office. Well the sad truth is, that despite an other wise normal childhood, I have never had the Chicken Pox.
