Keep Her In Your Prayers

So our little Deni is sick again (still). I think it was some time this summer that she started to get all of these "goosebumps" all over her body. We took her to the dr and he said that she had atopic dermatitis...we should switch our laundry soap to perfume free/dye free and switch our body soap and shampoos as well...we did that...they didn't go away...they got worse. She was just tested for MRSA because the spots had grown in size and started oozing out goo...it was fabulous...the tests came back negative but they put her on antibiotics just to be safe...Well...the antibiotics looked like, at first, they were helping but the last couple of days she has developed more spots on her little body and the "goosebumps" have spread to her nose and her forehead and most of her abdomen. She also has a rash that looks like permanent panties...the drs have prescribed meds for a yeast infection....did nothing to it! We are at our wits end trying to figure out what this could be...the drs office knows me by voice (its sad when you know ALL of the receptionists by voice also...)Anyways, we have been referred to a pediactric dermatologist but cannot get in until mid-December...hopefully, I can "persuade" the dr to call the dermatologist to get us in sooner...until then, please keep her in your prayers. Here are some pictures of some of her "owies"....She looks like a beaten child when I take her to school...she has to have them all covered with band-aids and there are now 16 of them...poor girl!

I have my fingernail in a couple of pictures as a size reference...they are not small sores...

This one is on her left arm...it oozes the most...YUK!





On her belly...this is what they start out as...







This one is on her calf...she says this one itches the most...









This one is on her back...


Poor Thing...Until next time...
