Well, this is a new experience for me.  I've never had ringworm and none of my kids have ever had ringworm...until I noticed this, yesterday.....
Judah's right wrist
So, I've been researching the essential oils that will effectively fight this fungus. 
I've come up with a blend that we will start using today and I will keep you updated with daily pics.
Some information about ringworm:
It's a fungal infection 
It's highly contagious
Doctors recommend using a topical over-the-counter anti-fungal cream
You shouldn't share towels or bedding with an infected person
You shouldn't share towels or bedding with an infected person
It can take up to 2 weeks or even longer for the infection to clear.
Ringworm can be transmitted by pets, other humans, or soil.  
hmmmm...my kids have been playing in a bunch of dirt we just brought in as we are expanding our Christmas tree farm parking lot.
They've been digging, making forts, moving dirt and just having a grand old time! Who knows if this could be the culprit or not.
No anti-fungal creams in use here. Let's see how our essential oils take care of this.
"Slip Away" Ringworm Blend:
 (My daughter, Hannah, likes the name cuz you know, worms are slimy, right?)
2 Oregano
2 Thyme
3 Lavender
4 Geranium
Add drops to a 1/3 oz. roller bottle and fill the rest of the way with Fractionated Coconut Oil.  Apply 3-5 times per day.  Remember, ringworm is highly contagious.  Do not share.  If you have multiple people who need to use this blend, make up a bottle for each person.  
Remember to purchase quality essential oils from Spark Naturals.  Use code "sonshine" for a 10% discount on your order.
