I'm always getting after Alex about itching his eczema spots. He'll itch and itch and itch until he literally rips the skin off and gets all bloody. It's awful. Sometimes I'll cover all of his spots with bandaids and have to get after him for clawing at the bandaids. Anti itch ointments don't seem to help very much, so it's something he just has to live with.
Today I've gotten to experience a tiny bit of what he's going through. I have some kind of bug bite on my foot that is driving me crazy. I'm like a madwoman clawing at it all day long. Today, Alex caught me itching at it and he yelled at me "Don't itch Mommy! It will get bwoody. I want a bandaid for you. "
