	Hi Norma, I think Jan is right in saying it is measles. I have just looked in my nurses dictionary and found the word morbilliform which is a rash resembling that of measles. In a 1930s edition it has got Morbilli in it which says it is measles. Teresa

	I believe it's measles. Try a google search and you will find it. Jan
