Parent update 11/28/11

Poor Brendan. Not a good day at all. He had a bad day at school, stomping, yelling, and his face was itchy. I asked him if he needed Benadryl when I picked him up from school and he said, 'yes'. He's been fussy, headbutting me and hit me a couple of times today. His face looks swollen from scratching it so much.

My guess is it could be the topical antibiotic ointment that we have to apply to his underarm twice a day to keep the sores from getting worse. We've tried natural stuff first, but none of them made it go away completely. A slight possibility of using the antibiotic was a possible rash. The chances were slim but his body is so sensitive. It could be something else, but for now, I am stopping the ointment, still giving him Benadryl but have also started him on an homeopathic remedy for the rash. I hope he gets better.

Although his behavior is reminiscent of months ago, I think it is because of his rash. Who wouldn't be cranky!
