Impetigo on Evy's leg |
Day 203
Feb 23 2015 Manila Philippines
The doctor that we took David to see in
Cambodia lived up to the poor standards that Cambodian Doctors are famous
for. The doctor had said it was an allergic
response to something and prescribed a cream called norash. It is indicated for the treatment of diaper
rash among other things. I had my doubts at the time as I had never seen an allergic reaction
spread with a little blister starting close to the original site breaking and
forming a new ulcer.
David posterior has still not healed and now Isabel and Evy have the
same skin problem showing up on their legs and on Isabel’s scalp. We are going to try an antibiotic ointment called
Mupirocin 2% as Dr. Google’s diagnosis is Impetigo. We went to for a ride on the MRT to a outlet
where we could buy ferry tickets. We
arrived at the store only to find that it had closed for the day about 10
minutes earlier for a monthly meeting and would not be open till the next
day. On the return trip to the house we
hit the MRT at rush hour. We let 3
trains go by until we saw one with sufficient room for us to squeeze into it comfortably. I could look over the heads
of the majority of the people on the train, now I know what it feels like to be
tall.
