the sick bay is busy

it started with Amjad getting mumps three weeks ago.
then when we got back from KB, Amjad was okay, but not the others.
We got here on thursday. Najwan started running a bit of a temperature Friday. Friday night Najwan and Azraf were tossing about.
Saturday morning we took them to the clinic. Saturday afternoon Hania started running a temperature so we took her later that afternoon. The dr was like 'what's happening to you people.'
Sunday Syakira started running a temperature and we took her to the clinic.
Syazmi was like 'yeah, I'm the hero.'
Then everyone was okay for a couple of days.
It was just the lull before the storm.
Syazmi started complaining his jaw area was hurting. Argh! It turned out he had mumps. Apparently, Amjad picked it up from school, then he must have passed it back to school because another boy had mumps in-between him and Syazmi. (their class has now had 4 boys down consequetively -- they're #2 and #4).
Then Azraf contracted mumps also.
So current count, we still have two staying home from school. And keeping a close watch on Syakira who wasn't feeling very well yesterday.

happy mother's day :).
