Well, our Thanksgiving has been up-ended as of today. Charli had her 15 month check up on Friday, November 14th. During that visit she got 4 shots. One of them was the chicken pox vaccine. And of course she had to react to it. Sunday night I noticed a few spots around her neck. By yesterday she has what appears to be a rash but is actually a very mild case of chicken pox. I didn't freak as well, I had them twice. But my next and most crucial thought was about Eric. He just finished his 6 months of chemo and he NEVER had chicken pox. I think he had the vaccine a few years ago but am not sure. My pediatrician suggested he call his oncologist. Fortunately, they were in Florida until today. Charli and I did not go to the office today. Eric (or Karen) did call the oncologist. Guess what??? This could be potentially fatal for Eric. I feel terrible. Our first holiday and we won't all be together. I know they all understand. But I still feel terrible. I guess I'd rather have it be this holiday rather than Christmas.
Well, I still have a lot of thank you notes to write so I better get to it.

Sorry to hear about this Sara.
You're welcome to come to Larsmont up in Two Harbors with us. . . we're going for a dysfunctional family holiday! Should be fun!
So, what are you guys doing? Are you and Charli staying home?
