Kristin Davis is a woman who contains multitudes. The actress, Goodwill Ambassador for the UN Refugee Agency, volunteer, producer, and enthusiastic protector of animal rights also has a title that she prizes above all else: Mom. Kristin has two children, and just like moms everywhere, she’s been through a lot with her kids.
One of Kristin’s children has suffered from moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis, or eczema, off and on for years. Any parent who has been in and out of the pediatrician’s office with more questions than answers can already immediately relate to parts of her journey: the confusion, hope, disappointment, fear, worry, and happiness that you feel when you’re trying to help solve a health-related conundrum for your child. As a mom of a kid with three chronic conditions, I fully know how deeply unsettling it can be to realize that such an important part of your child’s life is totally out of your control.
Luckily, Kristin has had a great pediatrician in her child’s corner the entire time. With his help, she was able to connect with Dr. Lawrenece Eichenfield, the Chief of Pediatric and Adolescent Dermatology at Rady Children’s Hospital in San Diego. Dr. Eichenfield then introduced Kristin to a truly revolutionary eczema treatment that is unlike anything else available to parents right now — and that actually works.
