Today, four days before Christmas, I discovered a rash on my daughter's shoulder. The doctor took one look and said, "It's chicken pox. Merry Christmas." FML

No they can come back as shingles in adulthood.

Though her shoulder may be red, she can use it to guide Santa's sled.

Technically speaking, since there are samples of small pox kept in labs for future study, there have been several minor breakouts that were luckily contained. Unless they recently destroyed the vials and didn't say so, there is still a risk of a small pox breakout. Very small chance, but still existant.

Awful timing OP. I'm so sorry. Try to make her comfortable. Hopefully the holidays can still be somewhat enjoyable.

An oatmeal bath, some homemade soup and some love from her family and she'll be better!

I think the real question here is was she vaccinated or not. If she was, FYL. If not YDI. Regardless of your FML OP, **** your daughter's life more. being sick on Christmas is the worst!
