The EASE Art Contest: And the Winner Is…

Last fall, EASE began a search for budding artists willing to share their feelings on living life with eczema through art. The first annual "My Life with Eczema" Art Contest was an opportunity for young sufferers to show us how eczema has impacted their lives by drawing and painting their representation of the skin disease. EASE received wonderful entries from artists across Canada who showcased their views on eczema and how it can impact school, sleeping habits and relationships with friends.

With submissions from so many wonderful artists, the judges were faced with a difficult decision. However, EASE would like to announce that 7-year-old Tayana Côté of Sherbrooke, Quebec has been named the winner of the "My Life with Eczema" contest! EASE would also like to congratulate our two other finalists and honourable mention winners.

Managing Eczema at School

It is important to remember that eczema can change quite dramatically in a short period of time and may require immediate treatment or care. Parents may find it helpful to alert teachers, school nurses, or administrators to their child's eczema. Discuss your child's condition with their teachers at the beginning of the school year, and check in with up-dates when necessary.
