Fifth's disease




Wesley had an unusual rash. A cross between a sunburn, poison ivy or a chemical burn. It started descending down. He had no complaints and reports he feels great. I came up with fifth disease. I asked my experts- local Moms who said it's been going around Mason. Here's what he looks like. Once the rash appears it is no longer contagious and offers a lifetime immunity.
