Eczema Flare

We have been battling an eczema flare since Sunday the 11th of November. We have had to wet wrap Lynda's face and her arms. We know that the flare started while attending church. We just can't pin point what she came in contact with in the nursery to cause this flare. That is what is so frustrating about eczema you may never know what caused the flare to happen. I can say at this point the flare on her face is now under control, her arms are almost clear again. We will still have to wrap her wrist and hands, but this is a lot better than it could have been. Benadryl every four hours was a life saver. That certainly helped minimize her scratching. Sean also had an allergic reaction to something in the nursery, he and Lynda walked home to take out his contacts, because his eyes were swelling shut.

We are going to try and see our friend Jessie and Aspen this weekend. Jessie and Aspen both have allergies. Jessie has been battling his own eczema flare and skin infection and we want to make him feel better.
