Sense Sonnet - Chiller

Rare Scare

Called Pemphigoid Gestationis,
It is a new mother's nighmare.
One in 50,000 get this.
I was one of the ones who's rare.
When my baby was newly born,
I held him dearly in my arms,
But blisters and a rash did warn
That there were allergy alarms.
I was allergic to my own
Baby, and could not even touch
Him. I felt helplessly alone.
I cried and cried. It hurt so much.

Thanks to steroids pumped into me,
I'm now hands on with my baby.
