9/21/2011 Caller states that the product had been laid down on Friday afternoon on a putting green. She did not know this and let her 11 month old crawl on the green on Saturday afternoon. On Sunday the child was "cranky." Monday she developed a high fever. The fever broke and she developed red blisters inside her mouth, on Tuesday. The blisters then spread over her whole body. The areas that she would have contacted the product would be her knees, hands, and feet. Tues night they went into emergency, and they told her that the child probably had a virus and recommended treatment with acetaminophen. They did not do a culture of the sores or any tests.
