Here is your public service annoucement from the Grant family:
Important points:
- You can have strep throat without having a sore throat. Fever is often a good indicator as well as bad smelling mouth and upset stomach.
- Strep does need to be treated or it will spread.
- Three year olds should not put everything in their mouth.
- Moms need to go to the doctor too when they are sick.
We should now be referred to as the Strep family. There was an update at daycare that strep was found, so Jackie requested that all kids got tested. I have had a sore throat for two weeks but haven't taken care of myself. The three of us went in and all came back positive for strep. I feel like the worst mother in the world, as there are four confirmed cases now at daycare. Elizabeth started the sickness. Looks like we're never going to make any friends!
p.s. The doctor will treat another family member even without a positive test. I'm sure he was thinking that both of us were stupid parents.

Oh my, that sucks. You aren't a bad parent! If it makes you feel better, Brianna gets the stomach flu about once a month. Often multiple times a week. What do you think the other parents think of me??!! Hope you all feel better soon1
