As you know, I'm the one constantly panicked about getting bit by bugs. But poor Ang in the last few days has really had her fair share of attacks. Two days ago we were walking down the street when a man sheepishly picked a caterpillar off Ang's back....she immediately started itching and even had to go and change her shirt. Although even changing her shirt didn't seem to stop the itching and she still has the outline of the caterpillar on her back (in red marks). The caterpillar bite has also morphed into more bumps all over her back. In addition, last night at dinner- while I got bit by nothing- she ended up with two huge bites on her knees and then her neck started breaking out even further.
The good news is...we have a resident nurse (me)....and a GREAT first aid kid--so with a Benadryl and some anti-itch cream she seems to be pulling it together.
Miserable, miserable. Nothing worse than bug bites. The only bad thing you inherited from dear ol' dad. :-)
