chicken pox

[jcjava]

I am asking for prayer. I want alex to hurry and get the chicken pox. He was exposed about 16 days ago. He is having a bit of a fever and he looks very flushed and his skin has a bit of a mottled look but no true spots yet. and then he got bit up by gnats so i cant tell if some of the spots I am seeing are bites or pox. So, here I am asking

i had it in the 4th grade. the kid infront of me had it and they thought he was just a fat kid with a rash. only me and ryan lucas got it out of 28 people.

when i was 5 they thought i had it. turns out it was an attack of fleas from the circus.

Did you know that *neither* of my younger girls have had it?? We've exposed and exposed and exposed. I always said that if they didn't by 10 I would get the vac, but I've not done that so far.

Maybe our kids are just so danged healthy from all the good food and non-exposure to germs daily that they aren't gonna catch stuff easily? Or maybe they've gotten it already and we didn't know. You do realize they can have such a mild case that you never catch it but if checked, they're immune, right?

You're in my prayers.
