Tiny Moment - Mom Fail (Jax's Bumps Appointment One)

(Picture of a mom who had a fail today!!!! Ahhhhhh)

So Jax has had little bumps on his stomach and arms for a little over a month and half.  I thought maybe it was a flare up on folliculitis and just red from the heat. Jon mentioned a couple of times that maybe it was time to have them looked at. In the busy of summer I just kind of brushed it off. Finally the bumps started to spread quite rapidly, I decided it was time to get an appointment. I was told he contracted molluscum contagiosum. It's like a cousin to warts and usually contracted in a pool. The doctor said once he is treated and beats it, his immune system will have built up a great immunity to it and he shouldn't get it again. He will probably need 2 to 3 treatments, which is such a bummer for him. Today he had the first treatment and this is how it looked when it was time to wash on the solution.
