Day 111: "When a Food Allergy Kid Gets a Rash Like This..."



You can't help but think it's a reaction to something he ate.
Luckily in Owen's case today, it is most likely a virus that came out in rash form.
This Momma freaked when she got him up from naps, luckily he was normal otherwise and we got a hold of his allergist and got some Zyrtec and Benadryl in him.
His skin was pretty much back to normal within about an hour and a half or so, just shadows of his big welts were visible at bed time.
His poor little eye, swollen still, but should be good by morning.

This of course happened when we weren't around any new foods or anything, just eating normal stuff at home. Why do viruses disguise themselves this way? Way to freak me out!
