My wife's great-niece was having her 4th birthday party today and sat down in a fire-ant bed. Her legs and back got covered immediately. My wife pulled her up and started getting them off her. They gave her benadryl and she started getting very lethargic with difficulty breathing. She is in the hospital and they are keeping her overnight to monitor for "rebound reaction" (not sure what that means). The mom, my wife's niece, is 3 weeks from delivery of her 3rd child. So, please pray that she'll heal up quickly, not have any more reactions, and that by tomorrow she'll be okay; pray for my niece (the mom) too for strength and not to worry overmuch (that's easy to say but not to do).
