Sea Lice

Ok another story on ocean wild life. The whole family traveled to RP over memorial weekend. All of us swam in the ocean. My wife stephanie, come up to the room too change out of her bathing suit, and she finds that she has this bright red bumps on both of her breasts. She is freaking out obviously at this point and is visabily upset. Upon our return to the states she sees a demitoligest who identifies the red bumps as jelly fish larve.

Turns out that for a few weeks leading up to jelly fish season, jelly fish larve form. Their small microspocpic cells. The cells contain the same venoum as the adult jelly fish. When the cells get stuck between your suit and skin the you end up with the red bumps.

The dermitologs gave steph some lotion and medication to help reduce the inflimation.
