I went through something similar at the beginning of December. I'm involved in a deal where I have several groups of girls that I work with. We were practicing and one of the 8 year olds was being whiny and basically dragging ass. I made her run laps and right in the middle, she sits down and busts out crying, which is not like her at all. When I asked her what was wrong she told me she didn't feel good and she had an "ant bite" on her arm that was hurting. It was on the top, dead center between her wrist and elbow. It looked exactly like a big pimple, but if you live in the South, then you know fire ant bites sort of look the same way, which I guess was why she thought that.
A few minutes later, one of the moms, who happens to be a nurse for an elementary school, shows up and I tell her about it. As soon as she looked at it she said- "that's staff." I called the girl's mom and she took her to the ER. We'd been practicing for 5 months for this thing that she absolutely didn't want to miss, so they hooked her up to an IV and ran one bag of antibiotics through her and then sent her home with a prescription.
Luckily, she responded really well but it was a nightmare for me, lol. I have tons of mats that we use, which had to be cleaned, and then cleaned, and then cleaned some more. Then we left for an out of town trip and she was with 50+ girls, all over each other and in and out of all the rooms and beds. We were all nervous wrecks.
I hope your wife feels better soon.
