Mysterious Bite

Last night Caroline came to me because her hand hurt. It looked like she jammed her finger and I had her dip it in cool water and gave her some pain meds. This morning her whole left hand is swollen and I can now see a puncture wound just below the lower joint of her finger. So this morning is going to be about a visit to the Doctor to find out what we need to do for her.

More as I know more.

I am grateful that Caroline showed me her hand last night so I have a better idea when it happened.Bite

Poor Caroline. I hope it's better soon.

Has she ever been stung by a bee? That sounds like the allergic reaction I had when I was stung on one finger. (The first sting never triggers an allergic reaction, only second and subsequent.)

We are going with spider because when the bite area is magnified you can see two puncture wounds but they are both small.

Bee stings are going to be a crap shoot for her. I am not allergic but Peter is highly.
