And the Verdict is...









Ok so after checking on him late Friday night and although is was still there it had not spread, but by Saturday morning he was covered pretty much everywhere but his face. He also had been running a fever and still having ear, head,stomach and throat pain. So off to the ER we went. Everyone thought he had Strep Rash but after that test came back negative that was ruled out. The verdict is that he came in contact with something he is highly allergic too and because of this we now have to start carrying around epi pens for him again. What it was is hard to tell but it was enough to make this go on for days. Except for School he has only been at home and these episodes happened at home. He was given more benadryl and put on Zyrtec daily. After it did end up spreading to his face that night i am happy to report that by Sunday evening all was gone and he has not broken out since. While there they did check his ears again and even though we had just got done taking Omnicef for almost 2 weeks both ears were still infected and full of fluid. So he had to get Rochepin shots 2 Saturday go back and 2 on Sunday and then go back and get 2 today. I am happy to report that his left ear is looking good and his right ear is getting better. Let's hope that from here things continue to get better.

Allergic maybe Not!








Ok we may have to take him to the doctor tomorrow. As before he left for school this is what we saw. We gave him some benadryl and put a note in his folder to let his teacher know that it should go away shortly just like the night before. Well shortly after he got to school his teacher sent him to the nurse and they said we had to come and get him. I totally thought it was an allergic reaction but today it never fully went away and then this afternoon it started back up again. I gave him some more benadryl and it did start going away but not fully. If you see it is under both his armpits as well and this afternoon spread to his back and arms. So i no longer think it is an allergic reaction. I need a break as we just got both the boys feeling well again and now this happens. The fun is never ending.

Allergic!










Ok seriously apparently there is something that Kaden is still allergic to. There is also a single hive about the size of a nickel further down his back and the back off one of his legs looks like this as well. To make matters worse he kept telling us he was itching so much and we told him to get his hand out of his pants, quit playing around and eat. Little did we know unlike normal he actually had a problem this time that was causing him to mess around. Makes you feel like you are a crappy parent.

My Little Model

























Today is picture day at school and i asked Kaden if he would stand by the wall and let me take a picture real quick before he left. So in true Kaden fashion he went over and did a pose and then kept doing different ones and wanting me to take his picture. I finally had to tell him we had to stop so he did not miss the bus. I think we have a future model on our hands!

Skyler's new love of Slides

Video of Skyler he found the slide while Kaden was doing therapy. If you notice he kept trying to run off to other areas.

Kaden had to go to the doctor again today. Even though we just finished his antibiotic a week ago his ears are either still infected or they are infected again. We have been every month since November with ear infections. So after saying he needs to be put on a $150 medicine (yes his ears are that bad) they have given the ok to go and talk to the ENT about tubes. So i will be calling tomorrow to get an appt set up for that. Like we did not have enough appts already. lol Nobody can say my life is boring and i just sit around all the time. lol
