Doctors and Nurses


Sorry for my absence. We've been playing doctors and nurses for real this week after a violent skin rash followed by high fevers saw my Pearl in hospital being treated for meningococcal disease. Thank goodness the blood tests were negative. And while the cause of it all is still a bit of a mystery, tonight we are grateful to be home in our own beds and all together again. My little girl is a bit mopey, and still very blotchy, but she is going to be fine.

Now, if we could just stick to the make-believe version of doctors and nurses, if you wouldn't mind.
