No Fun

Poor Seth ! He seems to catch all the weird things at our house. He seems to think everything happens to him. This time I may have to agree with him. IMPETIGO! This is our second bout with it but this time is really bad. Every place he had eczema, he now has blisters.





This is what he has been up to since Monday. 
When we put creme on the spots, which pretty well covers his entire body, he lays like this to let the creme dry.

His arm and elbow

His leg

The other leg
His feet, ankle, forearm, back, two on his face

He would not be happy if he knew I posted this - but we take the good with the bad at our house.  This is part of the memories that I want to remember.  One day when we are all cleared up with no allergies to battle, I want to remember this time that we have gone through. 

We have washed and washed, cleaned and cleaned, rubbed medicine, took medicine (3 teaspoons morning and night for 7 days) and pretty much locked him in his room.  He has even eaten every meal in there.  Can't afford for anyone else to get this infection. 

We have even tried some home remedies - olive oil, apple cider vinegar bath soaking for 30 minutes, eating lots of fruit, wearing long sleeves and pants, wearing nothing but short so they can air out

He has been a great sport
Thanks meme for the treat to cheer him up, he was very excited.

We made it 48 hrs.  Doctor says he is no longer contagious but still need to get the blisters to dry up and go away.

By the way,  hockey sign ups tonight.  Time to play hockey - the boys are super excited and ready to get on the ice.  They truly have a passion for the game.  So I guess we will be saying

LET'S GO CHECKERS!!
 for the next 6 months
Time to find all the winter coats even if it is 99 degress outside.
Gotta love hockey
