Child-rearing

There's a disadvantage to raising a kid of a different race than me.
I have failed my Kendra by lack of knowledge.
When I went to wake her up on Thursday her face was swollen. One eye almost shut and the tip of her nose and her lips. Like bad-swollen.
We tried benedryl. We tried Ibuprofin. We tried Blistex.
Nothing helped.
Today while Sam and I were out at a cookout/armor building thing she called her grandmother.
Apparently that's how Kendra reacts to sunburn.
I feel like a bad mommy.
