Poor Asher

Asher has had a pretty bad week. It started with a fever Monday morning. When I took him to the pediatrician that afternoon, they said it was nothing to worry about. Tuesday afternoon he started getting a rash that looked kind of like chicken pox. So we went to the pediatrician again. The doctor was not quite sure what it was. He said it could be chicken pox. Or not. Well, it just kept getting worse and worse. When Asher woke up Thursday morning, his hands, face, and feet were really swollen. So away we went to the pediatrician yet again. So it's not chicken pox. And it's not the hives. It's some weird vascular rash. Whatever that means. But he's not contagious. He started taking some kind of steroids last night, and he's doing a lot better today. (Plus he got a blessing last night.) The swelling in his feet has gone down to the point that he can walk again. It looks like he's on the mend. My poor little guy.
