Whats a bit of acne??

My face is improving. The acne has all gone down. It is still a bit red though, but I can live with it. I’m still not allowed to wear make up or any face products. I was told to only wash my face with baby soap and if need be, use baby powder on my face. I compromised and got the J&J compact powder, which is tinted, and apparently dermalogically approved. I’ve got to be on meds for about 3 more months though!

Using no face products and only John & Johnson stuff sure saves a lot of money. And time too! My face feels cleaner and less congested now without all the cosmetic junk. And I think the meds is making my face a lot smoother too. Could be psychological though.

My friends say that I seem very calm about the whole outbreak. I mean my whole forehead is dotted and red with pimples. Down to between my eyes too. Well, compared to my back problems, whats a bit of acne! I mean really, its nothing compared to mobility. I was in so much pain when my spine was damaged. My life was so miserable. I could not do anything, I simply could not go on with my regular life. I could not even get out of the car without grimacing and wincing with pain. So now, I thank everyday that I have without pain. You can see me gleaming when I walk briskly through KLCC. If you see me and wonder why, because it feels dam good to be this mobile and pain free.

So, what is a bit of acne?
