I was planning on writing something else today, but will not have time to properly compose my thoughts due to my son having come down with a contagious disease. Basically he has bumps and pimply looking things all over. It’s not chicken pox, but in Korean it’s called 수족구 where as chicken pox is 수두. Using the online dictionaries has only come up with the English being hand, foot & mouth disease but I’ve never heard of that so am not sure if the English is correct or not. It pretty much bites when you can’t speak the local language perfectly.
Anyhow it’s not overly serious, some meds for one week and he’ll be fine. The problem is that we cannot send him to daycare and this is a very inconvenient time. Normally I would be able to cancel some of my classes, but this week is final exams and it’s not really possible to cancel exams. Plus I need all my spare time to get grading done. Additionally my wife is really busy at work. This means a very expensive option of a baby sitter whom we don’t know as we’ll have to go through a paid service.
Currently The Hollow Son (THS) cries around strangers and runs away so whoever we get is in for a tough day. We also don’t like having someone in our house that we don’t know while we are not there all day.
Please pray for THS and that we can get this resolved ASAP.
