Ringworm, really?!

I can't tell you how many times I have spotted ringworm on my students.  So when Sean developed this weird looking rash right behind his processor, the thought of ringworm didn't even cross my mind!  My first thought was eczema that got a little out of hand, followed by an irritation from the processor.  Never did I think ringworm!  Of course we couldn't let this funky looking rash go without a visit to dermatology!  Diagnosis: ringworm! 
Really?  Of ALL the possible places to develop ringworm, Sean had to get it right behind his processor!!!
This made for an interesting 10 days.  Sean wasn't allowed to wear the processor behind the ear and refused to wear it with my adaptation of a longer coil cable and clip to his shirt.  So for 5 days, Sean had to adapt and listen with only one ear.  Of course I was a nervous wreck sending him to school  and stressing about how tough it would be for Sean's brain to have to adapt to listening with one ear.  Not surprising at all, he did very well! 
The real challenge was when the area was clearing up, we tried to reintroduce the processor and Sean rejected it.  :( It was as if the sound was too loud, not that the processor was uncomfortable.  Talk about another battle with an already stubborn toddler!  After a couple of days of trying, we were able to get Sean back to wearing both processors!
