Hives

Poor Coleen came down with a nasty case of Hives this week.  We aren't sure what caused the sudden outbreak and according to the doctor at the ER 85% of the time the cause of hives goes undetected.  Poor little thing was so itchy the first day.  They have her on Prednisone and Benadryl to control the itching.  In the mean time we are trying to determine what may be causing the outbreaks.  Could be tomatoes, berries or even the new stuffed toys she won at the fair.  Bedding is being washed, stuffed toys are being washed and no tomatoes or berries for awhile until we get this under control.
Pretty nasty looking.  I really feel for her.
