thrush

Fiona has thrush. I knew this was a risk because she's on an antibiotic, and her resistance to candida (the fungus that causes thrush and yeast infections) is reduced by her immune deficiency. In fact I'm surprised that it didn't happen sooner. I called Cincinnati and they are sending in a prescription for nystatin. If that doesn't work they'll give her something stronger. We also have to boil her pacifiers then replace them once the thrush is gone. I'm pretty sure we'll have to do the same with her sippy cups.
