Emmettilius stranmccannii met Exanthema subitum this week, putting an unfortunate crimp in some vacation plans. The up side is that Emmett gets to scratch disease #6 from the
list of six rash-causing childhood diseases. Unfortunately, diseases #1 through #5 (Scurvy, Consumption, Rabies, Cooties, and Gout) remain in the on-deck circle.
As a public service, in the spirit of the
pox party Emmett's parents have offered to host a 'Roseola Rave' for the neighbourhood kids in which all are invited to lick Emmett's rash. Strangely, the RSVP's have yet to materialize.
