Ahh Poor Ty

Tyson went school on Monday and when he came home I asked how school went he said fine he was just itchy. I didn't think much of it because he gets hot a recess and that is usually the cause. I noticed while he was doing his homework he was still itching, I looked at him and didn't notice anything then I just thought to lift up his shirt, he was covered with massive welts and hives all over his tummy. 
We gave him benadryl and it didn't seem to help.  We gave him an oatmeal bath and then he got out and said "my throat hurts and I don't feel well"....then he smacked his chin on the bathroom vanity and past out. That was scary to see. He didnt remember anything when he came back around. So we gave him some more medicine (its great to have Andrew's Dad on call) and he was able to sleep then the next morning it was everywhere.  I thought maybe it was a virus at this point and he threw up once and had bad stomach pain so that would make sense, but then his face got swollen on Wednesday and Thursday. We took him in to the doctor and he didn't even know either, maybe something he ate at school and had a severe allergic reaction or a virus hard to say.
I feel so bad he felt that way at school and didn't say anything and then to have it spread and itch like that. I break out like this after I have a baby so I can feel his pain.  But its much harder to watch them itch and be so miserable.
It was not a fun week and again my children surprise me with their strength to endure. Glad its over for him!!

You were not joking around when you said he had a rash. I feel so bad for the little guy! I was happy to see him feeling better and going back to school. I love having him in my car every day!

How sad!! It's always hard to watch your kids go through stuff like that. I'm glad he's OK. Did you ever figure out what caused it?

Oh my goodness. What a strong boy! That does not look like fun. You are a sweet mom. It is amazing what moms experience with their amazing kids.
