For the past month, Gracyn has been waking up with a rash. At first we thought it might be an allergic reaction from the juice she was drinking. So, we started giving her water. When that didn't work, we thought it might be the soap she was using during bath time. So, we switched to baby bath and shampoo. That didn't work. Then we were told to be on the lookout for bedbugs. So, just the other night, Kerri went into her room at night with a flashlight. We were told that if there were bedbugs, you could see them this way. No bedbugs! We were really racking our brains. Benadryl wasn't working and the bumps kept coming back.
Well, yesterday, we found our answer. Kerri took Gracyn to see one of our doctor friends who diagnosed it rather quickly. Here in Zambia, we are supposed to take de-worming medicine every three to six months. We've only been back for 2 months. So, naturally we didn't think about it. Kerri gave Gracyn her first dose last night and Gracyn was bump free this morning for the first time in a month. Praise the Lord!
While on the subject of health, we do have a prayer request. Kerri has been experiencing headaches for the past week. We contacted her neurologist, via email, and he said that because of the stroke back in January, she could have symptoms like this from time to time. Would you please pray that these symptoms would subside?
Thank you so much for your continued prayers.
