Roseola

...a common childhood disease I had never heard of. The doctor told us it was a possibility. The main symptom is a fever for 2-3 days (check) and then after the fever goes away...a rash (check). Bix was feeling better on Saturday, but the rash didn't show up until Sunday. The rash doesn't itch or anything...it is all over her body, but doesn't really look too bad.
Here you have it...



Fortunately we did not go through the same thing Too-Too did with Grandma A and great Aunt Betsy when they were babies. After a few days of fever, and the development of the rash, their doctor diagnosed Scarlet Fever...Yikes! That meant Too-Too was quarantined for 30 days (by herself) with 2 little ones...double Yikes!!
We are so thankful that it was only Roseola. Bix is back to her old self!
