Is it Contagious?

Poor Litte Sugie has always had dry, itchy skin.  We've been to doctors, dermatogolists, and allergists to help with her itchiness.  Her latest outbreak of little bumps on her elbows, knees, and beautiful face showed up about the second week of school. 

One day, out of the blue, she asked me if her eczema was contagious.

Me:  No, Sugie, it's not contagious. Why do you ask?
Sugie:  Just because...
Me:  Anything you want to tell me?
Sugie:  Well, A (her good friend that she sits next to in class) really wants eczema, too, and rubs my elbows everyday trying to get it.

Dear A - Trust me, you don't want this disease! So, please stop rubbing my daughter's elbows and concentrate on your schoolwork!!
