chris,

I use Vasoline Intensive care lotion and have used it

Ok now this may sound silly ( and it does sting at

first ) but take a empty spray bottle and put some

apple cider vinegar in it (can you buy that in Spain?)

then spray his feet with it ,

This sounds crazy I know , but mom had horrible

cracked feet forever and using this treatment ( we

heard about it from my Uncle who had excema on hands

and used the cider treatment for it ) anyhow this

cured moms cracked feet!!!!!!!! worth a shot

Oh how terrible for poor Mike to have this too.

He is sure going

through so much. I do not have any ideas other then

vaseline. It does

not have any perfumes so will not burn him. And of

course vaseline

stays on better and will seal the cracks. Love, Ingrid
