Allergic Reaction ~

 We had a little scare this morning...at about 4 am Jordyn got stung by a wasp (perhaps more than one).  We had fallen asleep on the couch and she snuck downstairs to climb in bed with us and came out and woke me to say there was a wasp in our room.  Well when i went in there, there were about 4 or 5 of them on my pillow.  Not sure how they got in but at first we didnt even realize she was stung...nor did she.  20 minutes or so passed as she was tossing and turning saying her bottom itched, and then her belly itched...and thats when i noticed the swelling of her hand and the red rashy looking tummy. 
Last year when she got stung by a bee it didnt start to itch and bother her for about 10-12 hours, and that was mostly due to the swelling of her finger, but this time her body reacted much faster.  We gave her some Benadryl, which seemed to help almost right away, but we drove her down just in case. 
We popped into urgent care and they said each time she gets stung her reaction will be worse.  As an EMT, i know this, but i didnt want to hear it...along with the dreaded, "we'll give you a prescription for an Epi-Pen, and she needs to keep one on her at all times in case she gets stung again". 
I know things could have been a lot worse, but it just adds to the worry a parent already has...and its something she'll have to be aware of for the rest of her life.  So, needless to say, its been a long day and we are all exhausted.
