my DS aged 12 has just been exposed to chicken pox. He's never had it although he has been exposed several times. Earlier this week I visited my friend and my son Stevie was playing with her grandson all afternoon. She's just phoned to say that he's got chicken pox. From what I've read the incubation period is 10-21 days. If Stevie has got it he may break out in spots a couple of days before we go or some days into the holiday. My friend has told me that they won't let us fly if he's got chicken pox. Does anyone know if this is true. Also, I believe it is supposed to be much worse for older children. I'm trying not to think about it but it would be awful if he was ill for most of the holiday. Has anybody got any advice? I know there's not much I can do except wait but this has really put a dampener on everything.
