Paranoid we'll be kicked out the theatre!

[SpotsAreAppearing]

My DD is finally over the chicken pox. (Broke our on Friday Sunday was pure hell for her, poor girly, but yesterday she was almost herself, no new spots and blisters all scanned. And today she's been so happy and bright.

Great timing as we have tickets for her favourite west end show tomorrow. And she'd have been devastated to miss it.

Problem is - and I will admit I'm a worrier - she still has a lot of scabby red pox on her face/neck.

It's just her and I going so she'll be next to a stranger, and of course in crowds to get in.

Now, I'm confident she's no longer contagious, is already discussed giving the tickets to friends if she hadn't have recovered in time.

But I'm worrying either the theatre will say "no" or someone there will complain about her?

I'm just being crazy, right?

Ah so glad OP, really nice you had convos with the people around you too so you wouldn’t have been sitting there stressing!

So glad you went and your daughter had a lovely time 😊

if they're all scabbed then you're perfectly entitled to go anywhere as no longer contagious , not sure why another poster would leave if seated next to someone with scabbed chickenpox!
My 3 dc all had chickenpox,scabbed over quickly, scabbed by day 4 or 5, but seemed to take ages for the scabbes to go away.

lol, sorry shouldve read to the end, glad you went!

Bold: *How do you manage that given that the person is infectious before the spots even appear? And it's airborne so you might not see someone with it but they could still be spreading it around?

Sorry, genuinely interested not being goody.*

It's a risk I have to take unfortunately and I've been lucky so far. I've only had one near escape that I know of when someone brought a crying child into the doctors waiting room and I heard her say to someone else she had chicken pox, so I went and stood in the corridor out of the way.

It is a concern when you see poorly children out and about though which is why I would have checked with the OP had I been at the theatre too.

Pleased you had a good time OP and hope it cheered her up after her illness.
