Best Healthy Streak I’ve Had in Over a Decade

  1. Medical tape on my person constantly to prevent access to pickable spots.
  2. Dupixent has helped control my eczema.
  3. Consistent care routine, especially moisturizer.
  4. Identifying triggers more consistently.
  5. Developed more overall awareness of my sensory experiences.

I’ve had open wounds for decades but have been healthy for 10+ days now! Huge success for me!!

Stranger Questioning My Daughter’s Disability and Handicap Parking

Sigh. My wife parked in a handicap space and left the kids in the car with my 12 year old, with the van doors open, while she ran inside to check on the place for accessibility. My daughter walks with difficulty and an abnormal gait. She is 9 but developmentally, other than gross motor, closer to 1.

An older couple parked in the handicap spot next to us and got out and remarked to my 12 year old, “what’s their disability? She doesn’t look disabled.” He just stared at them and didn’t respond.

This isn’t the first instance of ignorance or discrimination we’ve faced, but I wish my son hadn’t faced it on his own. He was confused but otherwise seemed okay and we talked about it.

Not the biggest deal I guess, but still disappointing.
