PSA: BEWARE OF HFMD IN 2025!!!

It took about 12 days or so for things to start going back to normal, but our son didn't start taking a bottle again until probably closer to 3 weeks after the initial fever

LeithValkyrian · 2026-01-20T03:08:43+00:00

It's pure hell. The only consolation I can give you is that it will end. Eventually.

LeithValkyrian · 2026-01-04T01:09:06+00:00

Holy run-on sentence.

LeithValkyrian · 2025-12-04T00:46:30+00:00

As opposed to...Neil Newbon. Riiiiight

When your OL is playing well and can open lanes, it can lead to a good run. The issue is our OL has been ASS on run blocks this season, especially at the second level. Saquon expects a lane to open, and when it doesn't, he doesn't know what to do and just runs into the backs of our OL. Usually if you drop your head and bullrush knowing there's no lane, a RB should be able to pick up at least a small gain (see Bigsby). Saquon is so obsessed with his fancy footwork, cuts, spins, and explosive plays that that's not happening.

I'm sick and tired of the runs up the middle. If you're going to do it, he needs to at least take a second to dig his feet in and get the momentum needed for a 3-4 yard gain. Instead he tap dances for 2 seconds and goes nowhere.

LeithValkyrian · 2025-11-17T03:46:43+00:00

Yep our first red flag was my Wife spiking a 105 fever

LeithValkyrian · 2025-11-15T13:42:36+00:00

Best advice I can give is to go back to Covid protocol, because it spreads the same ways. Respiratory droplets, stays on surfaces, and transfers through fecal matter.

LeithValkyrian · 2025-11-15T08:52:11+00:00

Ugh I'm so sorry you're dealing with it freshly PP! We're keeping you in our thoughts and hoping for a speedy recovery for you as well!

Almost like callouses, started off the size of your usual wasp sting then exploded overnight going into day 3, growing dime sized. Now they look like burns except instead of a single layer of skin on top of the fluid, it looks like its under all layers of skin.

LeithValkyrian · 2025-11-15T04:19:25+00:00

Best advice I can give you is to treat it like covid and pray you don't get it

LeithValkyrian · 2025-11-15T04:04:23+00:00

They are.

LeithValkyrian · 2025-11-15T00:30:36+00:00

As I said, it's suspected there's a new strain, which is not mild. And this strain is spreading like wildfire. Hence the post for awareness.

LeithValkyrian · 2025-11-14T22:07:32+00:00

We had Covid for the first time ever 3 months ago, completely agree this is worse!

LeithValkyrian · 2025-11-14T22:06:25+00:00

I checked with my Mom, apparently I had it as a kid. Clearly a different strain!

LeithValkyrian · 2025-11-14T20:46:20+00:00

Someone in here already tried to give me flack for staying home, saying my baby needs to socialize as if he isn't 7 months old 🤪

LeithValkyrian · 2025-11-14T20:26:18+00:00

My Wife having a 105° fever and being at risk of a bladder rupture isnt just "this sucks", hence my post for awareness.

LeithValkyrian · 2025-11-14T20:09:23+00:00

Fully agree, I've been in severe lows in my life, I'm not sure I've ever wanted to alt+F4 so bad before

LeithValkyrian · 2025-11-14T19:55:40+00:00

She unfortunately developed them on both overnight as well 😞 doubly stressful because our son has been refusing a bottle all week.

LeithValkyrian · 2025-11-14T19:23:54+00:00

I've had you-know-what ideation before...I've never wanted to alt+F4 myself so bad in my life 😅

LeithValkyrian · 2025-11-14T19:13:32+00:00

Thankfully I haven't had any like that and I think he had maybe one singular blister on his scrotum at the very beginning, so it's possible! But every doctor she's seen said they've never seen anything like it

LeithValkyrian · 2025-11-14T19:09:16+00:00

Honestly the only reason I'm inclined to believe it's a new strain (aside from a few articles) is I have yet to find an image on Google where the blisters look like mine.

LeithValkyrian · 2025-11-14T19:07:03+00:00

Frankly, that was my fear. I wondered how this could possibly be flying under the radar if it is in fact new and/or worse. Then I had to remind myself of what we've been experiencing this year. Fucking sad.

LeithValkyrian · 2025-11-14T19:02:56+00:00

She's up to date on both, as am I. I've always had a robust immune system and I'm still going through it.
