I can’t quite believe I’m about to type this, but Finley has been diagnosed with mumps (yes indeed: the disease that died out with effective innoculation and the plague) again this morning… How in the name of all that is scrumptious is it even possible??
Do forgive me if things get a bit erratic around here while I administer tender loving care and Calpol. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: there is no rest for the wicked and sadly I am as wicked as they come.

Oh la la. Poor Finley! I hope he recovers quickly with all your tender and loving care. Bon courage Alison!
Oh how frustrating and, on the other hand, how good to know what the trouble is. Kids bounce back so quickly that I'm certain the mumps won't keep your little one down long. Don't worry about the blog and take care. We'll be right here when you get back.
Oh, and I daresay that you're no more wicked than the rest of us. ;>
Speedy recovery to Finley! And yes, please don't fret about the blog and your loyal readers, we'll be sending our good energy your way and wishing you well!
Poor Finley, sending you both best wishes and a speedy recovery

AGAIN? You mean he's had them before? Poor, poor darling! I hope he gets well miraculously fast… 🙂
Poor Finley, I hope he gets well soon, send him my love, bless him.
Poor Finn! I hope this round finishes them off for him and he NEVER gets it again. At least you still have some weeks before Christmas, by which time he will be better. (Thanks for your email the other day) Gill.
Oh, that's terrible. How the days drag on when you have a sick one on your hands. Speedy recovery the second time around I hope.
Take time to care for your sweet Finley and yourself as well.
Poor little Fin! And poor you, for dealing with another round of sickness. I am thinking with all these sicknesses as a young child, perhaps he'll be a really healthy adult! LOL
Oh poor Fin and poor you! how long the days are when you are indoors with a poorly child, I hope he recovers quickly.
Good luck with that poor sick little sweetie.
I think Mom's should get a proper raise in pay each 6 months!!!

Get well soon Finn! At least he didn't get mumps like I did, right after I was potty-trained. Guess who had to be potty-trained all over again? My poor mum. Take care, Alison. It will be over soon.
Best wishes,
Anna Marie
Get well soon Finn!
Oh poor dear Finley. I hope he is feeling better soon. Lots of icecream is usually needed!
I know someone who had chicken pox twice. I hope he feels better soon.
