Mumps Update
My hubby does NOT have mumps after all! His blood test results came through yesterday afternoon and they showed no mumps virus at all, in fact they showed he was still immune from having them as a child. So the theory is that he contracted some other virus that sortof mimics mumps, swelling in the cheeks/ears/jawline just like mumps would. His swelling is virtually gone at this point and he is feeling almost normal (slight cold-like symptoms). Thank you for your prayers and concern!

so glad he is on the mend... viruses are crazy and do crazy things, that's for sure.
Glad he is better and it wasn't the mumps.
I'm glad this wasn't more serious. We have to watch out for these symptoms with my son, as it could be his cystic hygromas (diagnosed when I was 4 months pregnant). They could potentially get too big and cause him to suffocate. But no problems so far.
Blessings,
Laurie
