February 2, 2011


You can see the beautiful smile - there is a loose tooth in there - but can you see the bloodshot eyes? They are so much better than they last week! The bloodshot eyes, called conjuctivitis, in combination with a fever that is unresponsive to normal doses of fever reducing medications, and a rash are the symptoms that cinched the diagnosis of Kawasaki's for Deborah's case. Most of the other symptoms were not present in her case.
She still looks tired, but this was taken after a three hour nap this afternoon.
Her fever remains normal. All that remains of the rash is a sandpapery feeling along her skin; no remaining inflamation, and no peeling as of yet.
