Day 6: Fun at the park..

   We visited a park today,  rode our bikes and flew kites. We had such a lovely time and before we left I asked my son to take off his shirt and run around so that he can get direct sunlight on his lesions.  And for the very first time, he seemed concerned about what people might say about his spots.  It broke my heart that he would feel self-conscious.  I told him that nobody would say anything to him and besides that, if they did he should inform them about what his disease is and that there was no reason for him to feel ashamed at all.  We have researched this disease together, so he knows enough about it. I keep encouraging like always to do his best every day and to not think that much about the disease he has.  So other than the PLEVA he is a very healthy kid.

          Every night before he goes to sleep I check his body for any changes. And I was so sad to see a lot of new lesions.  Maybe the sun made it worse for him!! :'(  I'm so sad.

                                                           Day 6 Menu:

Breakfast:

Re-fried beans (healthy version) with salsa and rice

Lunch:

Spring mix salad with grilled chicken breast.

Dinner:

100% natural mesquite grilled chicken, onions, and zucchini. Brown Mexican style rice w/salsa and Guacamole.

Day 21: Success!!!!

                      I started this blog with the whole purpose of helping others by documenting our battle with PLEVA and hopefully finding a cure for my son.  Well, we have cured him completely with the help of a healthy diet and supplements that strengthened his immune system.  I ask all of you out there with Mucha-Habberman's disease or PLEVA to try this and hopefully, this also works for you. Keep in mind I am just a concerned mother and I am not a Dr. so you might want to consult with your Dr. and if you can find a Holistic Dr. all the better.                   Since my last entry on this blog things has changed for the better.  My son's PLEVA has been banished.  It has been since last Thursday - April 28, that we noticed he had no more new lesions.  The last day of our Elimination Diet was Friday - April 29.  We started integrating eggs into our diet, so Saturday and Sunday we ate eggs for breakfast and lunch or dinner.  Then we monitored for any changes on the third

The Beginning

  On March 11, 2011, my son (10 years old) had a punch biopsy on a lesion that he had on his leg. Earlier (in February) this year I had noticed him getting these lesions all over his torso, arms, and upper legs only. He didn't complain much as they didn't itch. I of course panicked and thought they were bed bug bites.  I felt so bad and thought that I should have vacuumed his mattress more often.     Of course, immediately I thoroughly cleaned his room, mattress, and bed sheets, wrapped his mattress with plastic, and disinfected his whole room.  The weird thing is that his sister had no lesions; they share a room and sleep in bunk beds.  I still went crazy cleaning every toy and every corner of the whole house. But the lesions kept appearing. So we went from Dr. to Dr. in order to find out what this was.  I did my research on these pediatricians and thought they had the experience in order to know what this was.  But they were all dumbfounded until finally we got referred t

Still no Pleva, YESS!!

It has been more than a week since my son's PLEVA has been banished and I am happy to report no new lesions!!   AWESOME!!
