prayer request for my daughter Ciara

[sadinmichigan]

Hi everyone...i am at the hospital w/ my daughter Ciara, she has been really sick the past couple of days ,not sure yet what is going on. Sunday she had some strange things going on. Her face was very red ,swollen and her skin was burning...she had used my face stuff so I thought that she had a reaction to it. Anyway,we were out visiting friends and later in the evening it went away, well,yesterday she woke up w/ a fever really  sore throat. I have 6 kids so i don't normally run right to the dr.s  I waited to see ...and did all the normal things one would do for a sick kid. Well,this morning she woke up and was much sicker...I don't have a car during the day so I figured I would take her to the after hours pediatric clinic,which i did.   During the day her hands started swelling and they were bright red and itching so bad. The Dr. thinks she is having an allergic reaction of some kind on top of her being sick.....they gave her Benadryl and a steroid med.About an hour after,her face turned all red again and it was all down her neck and arms...even the inside of her ears were swelling, so,they admitted her to watch because they are worried about her throat swelling up more etc...they are thinking maybe this is from a spider bite and it just so happens that she has a cold too..ughhhh
This pediatric unit is so cool though,,[she can't stop playing around w/all the bed buttons..LOL they have these cool little interactive flat screen t.v's w/internet.man have hospitals come a long way..lol BUT it has taken me 40 min. to write this..lol..
I will let you all know how she is doing tomarrow. I am worried and hope it's nothing serious. Thankyou in advance for your prayers/good wishes...etc..  
love Lisa

Thankyou all so much. We are finally home and I am slap happy tired and heading to bed..but Ciara is doing much better. All the swelling in her hands and throat has gone down. I am so glad we were there ,the Dr. said she would have probably had her throat swell totally. She was also dehydrated,which i didn't know..that stuff happens so fast. The Dr.s are still thinking that she has had some sever allergic reaction to something but knowing for sure what, is another thing..Ciara did so good after getting poked 5 times and taking all the nasty medicine..etc..I think sometimes kids do better than us adults..lol..so we will keep our fingers crossed that whatever happened is done happening..thanks again...love Lisa
