Mr R is at a conference this weekend, so the kids and I have planned to go and spend 4 days with my parents. My Dad has taken time off work, and is really looking forward to it. We had some lovely things planned, and we were all ready for some family time.
But life never runs that smoothly does it. We went to a children's Harvest workshop on Saturday, and there was a woman there whose little girl had recently had Chicken Pox. But that was okay, because her spots were finished. Her brother, however, was also there ... and now has Chicken Pox.
So our lovely, desperately needed family weekends has been ruined, because I can't take the kids near my immuni-suppressed mother because they have been exposed. Please please, it may seem nothing to you if your child *may* be contagious, but the risk to other people may be greater than you know ...
