Today's drawing is for all the people who have to deal with Epidermolysis Bullosa (EB). EB is a genetic skin disorder. People with EB are often called butterflies because their skin is as delicate as a butterfly's wings. EB causes the skin to blister and tear at the slightest touch. Often people with EB are feared to be contagious by people who don't know about the condition and this is not true. Please take a moment right now to do a Google search for Epidermolysis Bullosa and learn more about it. You never know, you may just see someone with large blisters, scars, open wounds and a lot of bandages. Then, you can ask them if they have EB instead of staring. You'll make their day. CURRENTLY THERE IS NO CURE FOR EB. Awareness is crucial so that more research can be done.
