My poor scouting kid



A few weeks ago my son went to scout camp. Dave was with him. It was a lonely week at home. Last Saturday, they came home and Jacob had mosquito bites all over his arms and back. It was terrible. He had slept outside most of the week without the safety of the tent to keep most of the bugs off of him. We treated him with antihistamine and calamine lotion. He seemed to be comforted.
Two nights ago, he came in from being outside and had welt like raised areas around his back and stomach. Yikes! It is a puzzlement. It certainly isn't slowing him down, but I worry anyway. He had it again last night.. sheese I hate going into the Dr to be told its an allergy and to give him an antihistamine and calamine..
