Maggie's Rash Continues

Here is a Maggie update. She woke up this morning with a fever of 101.5 and her face was so swollen she couldn't open her eyes all the way. I of course freaked out and had to wait until the doctors office opened to talk to someone about what to do. I gave the oral steroid the doctor prescribed to her last night and when I saw how swollen her face was this morning I was afraid that maybe she was having an allergic reaction to that medication as well. The nurse reassured me that it was OK to give the medicine along with Benedryl and some Motrin, she needed the medicine to get better. The nurse said that if the swelling hadn't gone away in a few hours then I should take her in. Luckily the swelling went down a little but when she woke up from her afternoon nap she was swollen again but not as bad.

Every time I look at her I just want to cry. She has been a real trooper though she acts like it doesn't even bother her. We just pray that she get through this and soon!! I hope these pictures don't scare anyone away and doesn't make anyone cry.
