Nicole getting sick.

Nicole went to school on Monday as usual.
Not a synptom did she show.
Tuesday she was happy at home,
Playing with her toys or her phone.
Wednesday in school Mommy picked up a note,
That was when we got to know.
Nicole was exposed to Hand, Foot and Mouth Disease,
This sickness really put her out of ease.
Poor Nicole was so miserable,
Nothing interested her whatever we put on the table.
She had no appetite at all,
The cereal she demanded, half the bowl she let it fall.
She absolutely refused to eat,
But to you she liked to feed.
Her tongue turned white and sore,
Red spots appeared on her hands more and more.
You offered her congee, she cried for ice cream instead,
then she fought for the spoon and spilled the ice cream,
enough to make you scream and mad.
All day long she wailed and groaned,
Nothing could stop her moan.
Using all your wits to calm her down,
All you could do was frown.
Running to meet her needs tired you out,
Your patience would soon wear out.
Thank God her coughing and fever were gone,
though a small congestion still lingered on.
Hope soon she will get over her illness,
and fill her days with happiness.
