The Photo

Here’s the photo of Dean’s Chicken Pox. Nasty Hey!

Thankfully the rest of him is not quite as bad as his face. The spots on his face are more concentrated and very swollen. He has been using lots of creams, ice packs and washers. The chemist confirmed that they no longer use calamine lotion as it dries them out and makes scarring worse. I never thought it worked all that well for chicken pox anyway when I had it as a child.

Apparently adults scar more easily than children so I bought some bio oil for when the spots are healing. Apparently that is good for the scarring. He has been in bed most of the day today and probably will be tomorrow so hopefully he will be feeling a lot better by Monday. Fingers crossed!

ETA This is his back.. it is twice as bad this evening as it was yesterday.
