After the fever went away, a mild fever developed again, and then red spots appeared on Lia’s body. Auntie Carol recognized this symptom and pointed us to this article on the virus Roseola. It affects children 6 mo-2 years old, is spread by those without symptoms, and usually doesn’t come with any symptoms until when the fever subsides. It certainly fits with Lia’s symptoms. Thankfully the fever only lasted 3 days, because it can run a maximum of 7 days!
