Esther seems to be weathering her sickness well. Ibuprofen evidently works better for her than acetominophen, so she has been reasonably cool and happy today as long as we keep her medicated. Last night she went through a period of time where she was her normal self even after the medicine had worn off. So at 2 AM she was cool as a cucumber and wanted a bottle--something she had adamantly refused for most of yesterday. The doctor told us that many kids with hand, foot and mouth disease don't want to eat anything, but for whatever reason Esther ate a lot better than she drank. I guess it takes an awful lot to spoil that child's appetite! She is both eating and drinking today.
