A healing of poison oak

Rob Nofsinger

I loved visiting my cousins in California every summer. We always had a great time playing outside in the woods. But the summer I was nine years old, playing in the woods didn’t turn out to be so fun. 

One day, without knowing it, I walked through a patch of poison oak. By the end of the day, I was covered in an itchy, ugly rash. 

I was so embarrassed about how I looked that I didn’t want to go outside. I didn’t even want to leave my room.
