yeah. its strep. woohoo. actually, to be more specific, it is scarlet fever.

this is the 2nd time she has had scarlet fever.

carter is fine. he said so to the dr. "i'm fine."

the worst of it was that we got to the pharmacy 10 minutes after they closed. the staff at the drug store were not exactly compassionate or helpful. in fact, they were rather callous.

so we drove 20 min back to the urgent care center and begged for a sample of the zithromax adult pill (they did not have the children's suspension). she was reluctant to give it to us, simply because she could not imagine that ava would swallow it, but ava gulped it right down.

hopefully tomorrow she will be on the mend.
