hand-foot-and-mouth disease

The fun never stops here at the Snethen-Griffin household! Elliot has been diagnosed with hand-foot-and-mouth disease. He's had a bad diaper rash for the past 3 days (which I thought was heat related), and he came down with a fever this afternoon. The pediatrician took one look in his mouth and knew what it was. He's got bumps in his mouth, bumps on his bottom, and a few on his hands. None on his feet, but they may come a little later, if at all. Meanwhile, Elliot has been sleeping nearly all afternoon (but when he's not sleeping his pointing).
