Lily had her one year check up and shots. When we went to the doctor she had her first ear infection. The doctor started her on amoxicillin. She finished that. A few days later she broke out in this rash. It started out really light and got worse. It was so sad to see my little girl like this. I took her back to the doctor and they said that she had a reaction to her MMR shot. It took about a week to clear up. I hated that I couldn't so anything for her. I also was so worried as it progressed and didn't get better. It seemed like every morning it was worse, and I couldn't do anything for her. As a parent your children look to you for protection and comfort. I felt so helpless. I did everything I could we just had to wait. I wanted to cry everytime she looked up at me with her red face. I'm so glad that she recovered.
