Reggie's Microsilk Bath
Donation protected
My names Leia and I'm 26 years old. On the 13th September 2015 Reggie was born a collodion baby, he is now 6 months old, when he was born he had a thick membrane all over his body which looked like burns, he was in a humidifier incubator in NICU for 2 weeks & kept in the hospital for just over 3 weeks!
He was born a collodion baby because he has a rare skin condition called ichthyosis. According to the Foundation for Ichthyosis and Related Skin Types (F.I.R.S.T.), ichthyosis is a family of genetic skin disorders characterized by dry, chronically, shedding, scaly skin that may be thickened or very thin. He is constantly unsettled and frustrated, His body needs to be moisturised every 2 hours to try and relieve itching and cracking, his sleep is constantly disturbed, he sheds skin all over his body every 12 hours. he looses hair with the scales from his scalp. I'm trying to raise money for a microsilk bath. In just 20 minutes the MicroSilk® bath provides a non-invasive, natural solution for cleansing, exfoliating, moisturising, and softening of the skin. It's been proven by family's in the USA that the Microsilk baths reduce build up of skin & reduces the thick skin, its also said to help with sleep as it reduces irritation. The great thing is that this bath will take those scales off in one session and he will have nice smooth skin for a few days which will be an amazing step forward for Reggie in making his life that little bit more comfortable. Any donations will be greatly appreciated.. Myself, Reggie & his big sister Tia are excited to take you on this journey learning about ichthyosis with us.
