Roseola almost ruined Halloween!

Last week Wyatt came down with a high fever. I kept him home from school on Wednesday thinking he probably just had a little bug or something and would probably be better by the next day. Well, his fever kept going up. Went to the doc on Thursday. They thought he probably had the flu, so we went for the flu swab to find out.
Here is Wyatt at the hospial waiting for the flu swab.....they asked if he could wear a mask. Wha??? He's 10 months old, I doubt that is going to happen....got a pic of the "mask attempt".
Nope, no flu. Probably just a viral infection of some sort.....Fever got up to 104 that night/early next morning.
By Friday evening, no fever at all. Was fine like nothing had happened. YAY!
Halloween, which we weren't sure was going to be so great, went off without a hitch!
Yesterday, another new symptom popped up---a rash.
Called the doc. Based on his previous symptoms and the newest of the rash, it's Roseola!
So, at least we now know what wrong with the little guy.
