What would a last week doing this be if I was not having something to flip out over!
Dcb came this morning with a "boo boo" on his cheek. I asked him if he hurt his cheek over weekend. DCM said that he had what looked like a bug bite over the weekend and Saturday night he scratched it like crazy and now it looks the worst it has. It is kind of round and had a bit of scab this morning.
I didn't think too much about it til later this morning when I turned around and he had blood all around it on his face, on his hands and on his shirt. He must have wiped it or scratched it again. I wiped his face with an anteseptic wipe from my first aid kit and slapped a couple bandaids on it so he can't touch it. I wiped his hands and changed his shirt.
Now I am freaking out that it may be MRSA. I am highly suggestable when it comes to diseases. Does MRSA start as looking like a bug bite? I never saw the bite so I don't know if it was full of puss at any point. Mom did not say it was, just that he scratched it like crazy the one night and made it all bleed all over his bed. Am I overreacting???? I do plan to mention it to mom at pick up. I wiped all the toys that the kids played with today at nap as well as his high chair with disinfecting wipes. I have washed my hands so much that the skin is coming off.
