Up until today I was all about Toby meeting beautiful Eleanor and falling in love. I have to report, though, that my son has YET to acquire roseola. Croup, RSV and gastro – -he’s got those antibodies – -but no herpes yet to speak. As soon as he gets it we’ll book a playdate…

She looks so sick in that picture…glad she is doing better!

My cat also recently recovered from herpes as well. Apparently most cats are exposed to the virus early on and later in life can become symptomatic–sneezing and sniffling–in times of stress. Bebe hid under the bed and became unusually quiet and lethargic. I also would rather have the protests than depression and lethargy.

I think it’s hilarious, but it might be the medical background! There must have been something in the air, I had a herpetic patient last week too!

Roseola — who knew? Great job, Daniel! Educational and funny. In birder lingo, there is a Hepatic tanager. But your herpetic baby is a new species for me!
