Tuesday, April 29 - Day 1 in the afternoon
Day 1 in the afternoon...she looked really awful all over.
Day 2 in the morning...her cheeks are red, but her arms, legs, neck and torso are so much improved!
Day 2 - in the morning...she looks so much better!
Day 3 - She is still splotchy, but the redness is fading even more!!!!As promised, here are some photos of Cassidy's rash. We went back to the dermatologist this morning and she was very pleased with Cassidy's progress. Cass's cheeks are still red and she is definitely still splotchy. The Doctor said we could expect some peeling and even a slight change in the rash(tiny, raised purple dots) as the reaction runs its course. She said to continue the medications as directed and come back next Friday for a final check. She said she was very relieved that Cassidy's reaction went "the other way" as she has treated children for 3rd Degree burns or even skin sloughing from this exact allergic reaction. She also reminded me to NEVER give Cassidy a sulfur based antibiotic again and even to refrain from giving Reed any since we aren't sure he has ever had it before. Before we left the office, the other doctor in the practice and the PA both "admired" Cassidy and how much better she looked today than she did on Tuesday. Thank you for praying for Cass; We know that God is faithful and the Great Physician. What a mighty God we serve.

What a relief to get that scary rash under control. I hope it is all gone soon! Cassidy has a beautiful smile even with bright red cheeks!! Our prayers are still with her.
