Taking on the Jellies!

We were itching to go down and play at the beach last Saturday. We get there by 10 so it was not too crowded and we were having a great time. We played in the water for a while and saw dolphins jumping about 20 yards from us. We then decided we would go up to the shore to catch some crabs. We were almost out of the ocean completely (maybe in two feet of water) when McKade starts screaming and reaching for his feet. Ben was holding him and grabbed him and that is when Ben feels the same stinging sensation, a JELLYFISH. We quickly pour clean water over it and wrap him in a towel so he can not scratch it. We then head to McDonalds. We debated on taking him to an urgent care as his leg looked like it had blisters all over it. We were not sure if he was allergic. We decided that if Mickey D's did not fix the problem we would go. (I know parents of the year.) After about 20 minutes and his smoothie and french fries he was good to go. Here is what his leg looked like later that day. He got stung pretty good.
