DISCHARGED!!!!!

Last week Emma went for her check up with Dr Purvis, her dermatologist.  This wonderful doctor is responsible for the Emma we now have.  Her ability to the recognise the severity of Emma's eczema and skin infections and suggest and encourage us to try a new treatment of immunosuppressant drugs has changed not only her life, but ours as well.  We no longer have a child whose whole life revolves around scratching until she bleeds and all the behaviours that go along with that.  We have a child whose skin is as good as it will get - it isn't perfect, it's still dry and always will be.  But the thought that we have won our battle against eczema is phenomenal.  Dr Purvis doesn't need to see Emma again.  I will always be eternally grateful to her and I encourage anyone with skin conditions to see her.

Yup, it was worth it.

Thanks for reading.
