On Sunday morning as we were getting ready to leave St. George I find 100's of red ants in the room we were staying in. I start to vacuum and clean them up, all while being bit by them. I then go into the kitchen and P is complaining of itching on her neck. I look and she had maybe 20 dots on her neck. I assumed she had been bitten by these dumb red ants as well. So we get ready to head out the door and start the drive home. The whole way home she complains of her ear hurting and her throat felt like she was going to throw up. We get home and I pull up her shirt and she is covered in them all over her back and stomach. We went a couple of hours and then decide I should take her into an Instacare just to check since I didn't know if I should send her to School the next morning. They confirm that she has chicken pox and that she needs to be quarantined. They said it will be a long night and starting tomorrow it's going to get a whole lot worse. The Doc says to "load up on Popsicles, yogurts, smoothies, crafts and movies" so that's just what I did. Well roll around Monday morning P is happy as a clam, no complaints about itching, so we hang out all day on Monday. Tuesday same thing happy, no itching but they said by then she will be itching so bad, fevers and the spots will start scabbing, well that never happened. So Tuesday I decide to take her into my doctor they say mostly likely chicken pox but there's also a thing called Hot tub Facilitates (?) It's a bacteria that causes a rash with a white head on them. They don't itch and will go away within 5-7 days. (Saturday night P got into my Mom's hot tub). The doctor said by Wednesday if they still have not scabbed over then it's definitely the Hot Tub and that she is not contagious and the rash will fade and sure enough each day they faded and now are all gone. It was sure fun to have my girl back with me for 4 days straight but I was also excited to get her back to School and she was excited to get to play with friends again.
This picture doesn't even show how many she really had
At Instacare she was really emotional and thought she was going to have to get a shot
