My Poor Jack Man

Jack has the worst skin ever! Whenever it gets cold outside and it gets dry in the house, he breaks out. Usually it is dry patches and you can really see around his eyes where it gets irritated. He already was on a steroid once this year to clear up a rash. Well on Tuesday we noticed a couple dots on his face and by Thursday there were several more. We called the doctor's office and asked them to call him some cream for him. However it didn't get called in some how. So when he woke up this morning it was ever worse, moving under his nose too and reminding us of when he has gotten impetigo in the past.
So I called Aunt Kristi at work and she spoke to some other nurses and they said to keep him home from school until we talk to a doctor. SO we kept him home knowing he would be so upset since it was his Valentine's party at school. Thankfully Kristi spoke to our doctor who said he was good to go to school but put him on an antibiotic and a cream for his face. We got him to school an hour late and thankfully he didn't miss anything. I brought him into this room and couldn't believe how excited all his classmate were to see him. Over half of the class ran up to him and hugged him and he teacher laughed about how they always do that. They must love Jack! No one even acted like they noticed his face which I was so thankful about! He didn't know I was taking these of his face, he thinks he is showing me some of his candy! My poor boy, hope over the weekend it clears up quickly!
