CAMP

I was a camp counselor for a group of kids with skin disorders last week (hence the lack of posts). As an ode to my campers, I'm going to do a few days of posts dedicated to their skin conditions and address how these conditions have affected their lives. Middle school is a tough time as is, but when you have a disease that everyone can see, a tough time can become tougher. These girls are remarkably mature, caring, and sensitive, and it was a pleasure getting to know them.

I think people would be less judgmental if they understood what kinds of conditions kids like these have, and hopefully this series of posts will bring together some useful information and helpful links.
