The rash--if you look closely you can see all the red dots.
On Tuesday we received a phone call from the daycare. Gianna had 102 degree fever and was acting kind of cranky. So, that night we visited the urgent care center. Everyone there was very nice and said Gianna looked just like a little china doll. I don't think she liked them, though, after they took her temperature... She still had a high fever and when the doctor looked in her ears, she determined Gianna had an ear infection. So, we got a prescription for antibiotics and took her home. The next day Great-grandma came over to watch her until I cam home that afternoon. She was still cranky and very sleepy. I stayed home from work the next day and Gianna slept a lot (5 hours!). I guess she was still feeling bad. On Friday, I noticed what looked like a rash on her torso and face. We didn't think it was that bad, so we took her to daycare anyway. That night when Matt picked her up her rash looked AWFUL!! And she had a little accident when he was giving her a bath. Long story short, we took her back to the urgent care center. The medical director of the clinic examined her and said she had a double-ear infection and possibly a drug rash. He decided to switch her antibiotic and to help her get better, he ordered an injection of antibiotic. That did not go over well. The plus side was that Matt and I got to wait in a room with recliners and satellite TV for 15 minutes to make sure Gianna did not have a reaction to the injection. Finally, we got her home and into bed. She still looks pretty bad, as far as the rash goes, but hopefully we are on our way to recovery!
