My husband contracted genital herpes from another woman years ago. He is extremely careful about not infecting me. However, the other day he was down at the creek with his two grandsons, ages three and six. He said that they were climbing over him to get into the ranger, and he let each of them (one at a time) sit on his lap and drive around the property (for a trip that took probably ten minutes or so).
He said that he had suffered a breakout and had taken valtrex a couple days before. The blisters broke the next day. It was a day after this that he and the boys went to the creek and rode the ranger with their wet suits. He took them home that evening. The next evening, their mother called to say that both boys had a rash that looked like little ant bites on their buttocks. One boy is three years old; he was affected a little higher up on his buttocks than his older six-year-old brother.
Needless to say, my husband is quite upset and doesn't think life is worth living. Please...Anyone who has any knowledge that may help...We would appreciate hearing it.
