Alex is really sick. He has a 103 fever and Poison Oak all over,,,,did I say ALL OVER! So after 2 Dr. visits this week ( one because it looked bad, and the second, becuase it looked REALLY bad and we added Michael to the patient list.) Alex now officially has a virus, AND poison oak, and Michael has poison oak too.! Alex has horrible blister like lesions all over his arms, hands, back , stomach, and neck and lower cheek. They put him on a steroid and gave us some cream. Michael has the blisters all over his arms and hands, but he doesn't want his picture posted :) They put him on a steroid also. Luckily he didn't get it as bad, but nonethelss he is very uncomfortable . So it has been a weird week, with it getting worse for both of them over the last 3 days, but especially today. Weird stuff! I guess it can take anywhere from 1-12 days for the skin to react after being exposed. The oil goes into the skin and actually ruins the skin cells. Supposedly we are through the worse of the breakout. Please pray for comfort for the boys, and for Alex's fever to go away. As for this week, we are couch potatoes!
