    Well done, that's great...

    It's such hard work losing weight...

    But when you get a result like that it's so motivating.

    MUDBATH - DS2 broke his arm last spring, he was in a cast around his thumb and all the way to his underarm. He didn't have a problem with the itching, his skin dried up alot around the edges of his plaster, the parts covered went like goosebumps and really hairy. He had to keep it on for 6 weeks in total. He is not much of an outdoor child so didn't get too dirty, and its ok for a child to be bathed by someone else.
    Hope it eases soon.
