Can't catch a break

It's been a stressful week! Gavin and Carrigan finally got over their colds, but then Carrigan got an ear infection. Then it was vomiting, diarrhea and high fevers. This morning she woke up with a horrible rash. The doctor said he HOPES it is Roseola, but she might have a stomach infection to go along with it. He gave me his cell # to call if things haven't gotten better by Friday. She looks horrible!

The rash covers her entire forehead, face, back, stomach, well, her WHOLE body! Gavin had Roseola about a month ago and the rash looked like nothing compared to this!


Enlarge the pictures to get the full effect of the rash, although these pictures don't do it justice!

Oh sweet baby! The pictures bring tears to my eyes!! Does she feel as miserable as she looks? Cool baths help calm the rash?

I hope you are managing to get some rest..I know this is so stressful.

Many prayers!

The only thing the doctor said helps is Benadryl, but she is too young for it. According to every web site, it shouldn't be bothersome, but when Gavin had his, he was constantly scratching. I am guessing it will be along next few days.
