My sister-in-law's younger sister got married on Saturday in Philadelphia. The wedding ceremony was at Tenth Presbyterian Church at 1701 Delancey Street (corner of 17th and Spruce Streets) at 4:00pm. It was a nice ceremony and at the end the couple walked through the Arch of Swords since the groom is a Marine. The reception was at Hyatt at The Bellevue at 200 South Broad Street starting at 6:00pm. Hyatt at The Bellevue blends old-world architecture with modern amenities. The hotel houses 172 of the city's largest guestrooms. The Bellevue building is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The cocktail hour was in the Conservatory on the 12th floor where we ate hot, cold, and passed hors d'oeuvres, and had a few drinks. The dinner and dancing was in the Rose Ballroom on the 19th floor where we ate salad, sorbet, scallops, gnocchi, beef, cake, and cookies, and had some more drinks. Then we did some dancing. It was a wonderful evening all around for the happy couple and 140 of their family and friends!

When I was there, the doctor did a biopsy of 1 of the moles on my back (which came back as normal, by the way). The area was healing pretty well until about 2 weeks ago. The area around the wound started getting bigger instead of smaller and oozing. Therefore, I went back to my doctor to check it out. She said I was having an allergic reaction to something, probably the Neosporin . She gave me some new ointment, Vanos , and said I should take Zyrtec until the area starts to get better. Vanos (fluocinonide) Cream is indicated for the relief of the inflammatory and pruritic manifestations of corticosteroid responsive dermatoses in patients. Best results are seen if used twice per day. Zyrtec (cetirizine) is an antihistamine that reduces the effects of natural chemical histamine in the body. Histamine can produce symptoms of sneezing, itching, watery eyes, and runny nose. Zyrtec can be u
