Update on the Rash

So we ended up going to the ER in Jefferson City. They decided Landon should go to the Children's Hospital in Columbia, MO. He and I rode up in the ambulance, but after one night and a little improvement, we got to come home this afternoon. They really never figured out exactly what he had, but say he will be fine and the spots should be all gone in a couple of weeks or so. He was prescribed some high power antihistamine for the itchiness but that is all he takes. He is improving as we speak, so thanks for all the prayers. Here are a few picks of Landon near the worst he looked. His tummy, armpits and knees got a little more dark purple, so that was what looked the worst. He looked aweful and the worst was about three or four hours after these pics were taken, but we did not take pictures while at the Children's Hospital.

  3. Sweet baby boy, It makes me cry just to remember how you looked when we got there on Sunday night! We were praying so hard for you! But it also makes me rejoice when I remember how you looked when we left on Tuesday morning--so happy and so much better! Thanks, Jesus, for answered prayer! Love you all, grampa and gramma

  4. A lady I work with told me today after hearing about Landon that her daughter had the same purple "looking like bruises" marks with the red stuff when they found out she was having an allergic reaction to Amoxicillin! Isaac didn't get the purple stuff, just the bright red all over. Weird stuff! Glad he's doing great now! PTL!
    Love you all,
