Rare Illness Strikes Small Village

Christopher Snow in the Dean Koontz stories, Seize the Night and Fear Nothing has XP.

...it is a terrible affliction, and odd that it has visited itself in such a way-but genetics will have their way...and yeah Walt, Koontz does a wonderful job of making Snow a viable and intriguing character even with the malady...

I have PE (polymorphous light eruption) which is a literal allergy to the sun, but I can control it with sunblock, Cortisone cream, and avoiding peak hour sunlight. It's something I've lived with for over 20 years.

You're like one of the kids from The Others?

No, not that bad. I don't blister painfully. But when in direct sunlight without protection, red bumps start appearing on my skin within minutes, particularly early in the spring when I have no base tan. This eventually turns into a crackly rash if I don't stay ahead of it with cortisone.

Sounds like what happens to me...my arms...early summer. Never used to have problems w/the sun, but the last few years if I don't wear a #30 or better sun-blocker I get a rash on my arms. Once a tan sets in not so much a problem. Maybe I ought to say something to the doc.
