Mystery Reaction

Over the weekend of February 20 and 21 Trey Davey developed a troubling cough. By Monday he had developed a fever and clearly felt bad. On Tuesday we visited the pediatrician, who sent us to the hospital for x-rays and a flu test. The diagnosis was pneumonia. Dr. Neel prescribed an antibiotic and Motrin. By Friday, Davey was feeling much better and Benji began developing the cough and fever. A week later, long after we had stopped giving him the antibiotic, Davey developed a rash all over his body. It didn’t itch or seem to bother him in any way. After a few days, it disappeared. Everything seems fine now.
