I'm glad y'all were able to find the answer and she is doing fine now. Your baby is a beautiful woman and I bet she looks just like you! Happy birthday to you both.

His skin actually turned a little rusty red color in places! That was the tip off for the doctor.trash talkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17508579521854913297noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6448019025261796302.post-87347522445423213012009-07-21T21:55:02.322-05:002009-07-21T21:55:02.322-05:00How wonderful to find an answer!

Six years a...Rebecca,(hope this isn't too long)<br />Six years ago my husband and daughter were in a car accident (she was pregnant at the time..all are just fine) I say this because it was a blessing in disguise. My husband had been plagued with numerous blisters on his hands for months. And when the blisters "popped" it was like a burn and took weeks to heal. Not one doctor could give him an answer until the emergency doctor found an irregularity in his bloodwork...He had too much iron in his system. His liver was unable to process it. It also is passed through his family. His mother did have this, the name of the disease, however was different than Alyson's, and completely escapes me. At any rate their solution was blood letting...we opted not to do this, but rather control his red meat and iron intake. Happily he has not had a blister in over a year and feels terrific! Thanks for sharing your story..persistance does make a difference.WIZARD OF ONCE WAS "WooW"https://www.blogger.com/profile/09683915388456211086noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6448019025261796302.post-20657084623651079542009-07-21T14:25:07.450-05:002009-07-21T14:25:07.450-05:00Debra...What a JOY to read you have found the answ...Debra...What a JOY to read you have found the answer...God is good, All the time.<br /><br />I'm thinking of you and praying for your girl.

Each time it was many years later found to be serious diseases & I was so sick I could barely crawl. It is always important to share medical issues as there may be that 'one' person that can grasp ahold of it in need. TY for sharing this. May Alyson have a fruitful & enjoyable life ...
