when i posted last week that we'd all been sick for essentially the month of february i had no idea that the worst was yet to come. mya woke up on friday morning with a wicked rash that spread and changed colors to the point that every doctor and nurse that saw her just kept saying 'what a dramatic rash, i've never seen anything like that before'. yeah it was bad. so after spending the night in the hospital and a phone consultation with the head of dermatology and the children's hospital in seattle they decided it was serum sickness (a kind of hyper allergic reaction) to the amoxcillin she was given for the double ear infections the week before. oh yeah and as if that weren't enough she has a touch of pneumonia to boot. i think she's on the mend and the rash is all but gone. here are some rash photos.
