Gone and back again

Well, Beth took some Benadryl for the rash. It went away and in the process knocked her out. We battled all day with being sleepy. Late in the after she developed the chest pain returned slightly. She does continue to battle with this costrochondritis. This is inflammation of the cartilage that connects the sternum and the ribs. Apparently this is very common and very minor in regards to her health. The thing is that it aids all this pain in her chest. She took some Tylenol and felt better, so we are thankful for that. The roller coaster continued this evening as the rash returned. So, she took half of a benadryl this evening and covered the spots with topical benadryl creme. We pray that this will continue to work through out the evening as she sleeps and take the rash away. So, there's the wrap for the day. She is heading off to sleep and we are looking forward to what tomorrow brings. Thanks so much and talk with soon.

Hey Beth & Dale. I just found this blog and I've been reading along. Please know that Bobby and I will be praying for you. I have also battled with costochondritis in the past, it is not pleasant at all! Let us know if we can do anything.
