Shelby

Well, Shelby has not gotten much better, and it being the weekend, well, I finally decided to call the phone in line for the doctor. When he called, after discussing everything with him, his suggestion was to take her to the ER. I HATE the thought of that. So, we decided to call Uncle Jim and see what he had to suggest. He had already left for church, but Diane said he would also recommend the ER. So, off we went.
Doctor said it was "weird". and had 2 other people come to look at her. And asked me several times if she had chicken pox. No. She had the vaccine.
Hmmmmm. Well, they confered and decided that indeed she did - does - have shingles. A very odd thing for a child to have, and even odd-er for not having had chicken pox first.
And of course, I waited too long, so there is nothing they can do medicinally for her.
So, we are home now.

Happy Mother's Day! I guess I should enjoy it being a mom, instead of kicking back and being waited on! :)
