Hand foot mouth disease

Simon broke out in a nasty rash all over his entire body Monday and got sent home from daycare. We had to bring him to urgent care because they wanted a dr's note to ok him going back. (In retrospect, total waste of time and money.) The ped at urgent care thought it was a viral rash, and he didn't have a fever so she ok'd him going back yesterday. He was fine only to be sent home again due to blisters on his hands and feet! :( so annoying. I know HFM is highly contagious but he's actually acting pretty normally except for a slightly lower appetite. Oh well. Lesson learned, I guess. Hopefully he doesn't get worse and can go back soon.
