Anna and her bee sting

 

 

Anna got stung by a bee for the first time ever at the soccer game Saturday. She completely freaked out. We had been worried for the last 3.5 years of that moment. Her mosquito bites get so big and swollen, but this year, she had improved. She was covered head to toe in clothing and a blanket and she peeked out just for a minute to see Brandon play and got bit the minute the game started! Darn! I immediately got Benedryl in her and she was breathing, so all was good. By suppertime, the meds were wearing off and she resembled a creature from Star Trek! We all commented on how she didn't look like our little Anna anymore and certainly did not resemble our wide eyed Guangxi girl! She hardly had eyes. And they were very red all around them.

These pics were taken today and she was much better. The bite was just above her left eye, but she had NO nose bridge last night and her glasses were VERy tight and left marks all day and early today from all the extra fluid in there. I forgot to take pics last night. We will definately be talking to the dr. soon about this allergy.
