Caring my son

My son is now in the fourth day of antibiotic medication for his varicella infection (chickenpox). He feels better now but vesicular rashes are still on progress. As a mother I tried all my best to take care of him. Carrying out the medications at the right time, dosage and frequency. His room is been his isolation room but i made it sure that it is well ventilated. Everyday I squeezed oranges for him because this is rich of vitamin C to increased his resistance to prevent further infection. Erupted rashes are prone to infection and keep on changing his clothings and bed linens to feel comfortable as much as possible. Now his soiled clothings and linens are segregated from ours and soak for one hour with clorox to disinfect before loading in a washing machine.
Fish , poultry , eggs , peanut butter and other foods that cause itchyness is avoided. He requested Arroz Caldo con Goto (Rice Soup with Beef's Tripe). So i went immediately in Cherry Foodrama to buy the best tripe because it is already clean not like in the wet market. It is time consuming of cleaning one by one. I cooked right away and I thank God that his appetite is not affected by the disease and he is eating so well.
