Here is the UGLY.......
After some Steriods
Wow life for us the last 8 weeks has been one big major roller coaster and we hope that we are about to the end of it and get back our normal selfs again..... Things have been really good we have an amazing little family that teaches us so much every day we are so blessed that Ava is doing so good and is a very happy baby.... We also had Kate's 3 year old Birthday, Ava's blessing a few family vacations which all turned out great Thanks to the help of everybody I will post pictures of them when I can..... Now this is our new test in life.... Kate got really sick and had some major ear infections they gave her a shot of rosefren and put her on augmentin well she seemed to be doing better then Saturday after her birthday party she wasn't feeling that great and spiked a fever of 103 so we took her to kids care they sent us home and told us she had a virus going on.... So on Sunday we had Ava's blessing and Kate just wasn't acting herself again and was still running a fever...... Well on Monday she came down if a full set of welts that covered her entire body every inch on Tuesday they weren't getting any better she had seen two different doctors and they told us it was erythema multiforme a drug reaction to the antibiotic
that night her eyes swelled shut her lips and face were swollen so we took her to primary children's were they started her on steroids to help the body fight the infection..... Needless to say it has been a very long few days with sleepless nights and a very emotional mother but we hope we are on the down hill now she seems to be doing much better and we hope it continues.....

Wow, Suzanne, that is scary! I hate when kids are sick because you don't know at what point you need to take them to the hospital. I hope she is doing better and that you are a little more less stressed
I'm glad she is doing better! You guys know we are here for you if you need anything. Love you guys!
Holy Cow!!!!Poor little thing. I really am sorry we didn't call the other night. We will next time I promise:)
Oh Suzanne I am so sorry to hear that. I am sitting hear thinking of you and the tears have filled my eyes. Poor Kate! I hope you are okay and everything in your world begins to even out. I am so glad that you figured it out and she is better. You guys have had a whirlwind of a few weeks. I can only imagine how you must be feeling. Good thing for a strong momma. By the way ...I do not know if I thanked you enough for the rx. You made my life 50 times better. thanks a ton. I am so sad that we weren't able to be at the blessing or Kate b-day. I am sure they were both amazing. Take care!
Love Lisa
oh wow! i'm so sorry! that is awful! poor little kate, i hope she can get over this soon! i can't imagine how you guys must be feeling, you have had so much drama lately. hopefully you can all calm down and have an awesom summer! give little kate some love! that breaks my heart to look at those pics!
Suzanne, I am sorry to hear that about Kate. JoAnn had mentioned that Kate had a rash about the same time Allyson got a rash. I was told that she had a viral infection and was put on steriods. The Dr. didn't tie in the antibiotics. It has been just the last couple of days that she is finally not having to take Benadryl or the steriod. What a good thing to get past! :| Marlo

There is nothing worse for a mother than when your kids are sick. I am so sorry Suzzy.
