I noticed one day that he had some sort of mosquito bite on his back, and I thought it was pretty odd to get a mosquito bite there. Well, as I continued to watch it for a few days, it flattened out and turned into a beautiful telltale ring. Doh. AND, I noticed this weird bald patch on his head. Doh. So, in to the health unit we went just to have my fears confirmed. The kid has ringworm. Oh so gross. I absolutely detest skin infections. Right now he’s on this cream to help stop. But, if you’ve read the above articles about it, you will see that they say that scalp treatments can be extremely difficult to treat, and may need oral treatment. After talking with the health care practitioner, she mentioned that there are all kinds of side effects with the oral drug, so she’d rather try the cream first. Oh dear. So, all of you prayin’ folk out there, please pray for Andrew so his ringworm will go away and he doesn’t have to take more nasty meds!!
