Fifth Disease

[Eerie background music] Yes, Mrs. Bickerson, Fifth Disease made an appearance in our home as well. Is it yet just another strange similarity in our two lives or is it running around the Twin Cities? Several kids in William's classroom have had it, and I happened to notice the rash on his hands last week while volunteering in his class. For those of you who are not up on your childhood diseases, Fifth Disease is apparently not serious. By the time you know you have it (usually from the rash on your hands) you are already through being contagious. Sneaky little virus, huh?

Comments:
I don't know how the adults are supposed to keep from catching this bug but whatever you do, don't. A virus causing inflamation in the joints is NO FUN.
