It was a peaceful evening after a long day. Maria sat beside her daughter on the couch, gently brushing her hair while they talked about school and weekend plans. Everything seemed perfectly normal until she noticed something unusual moving between a few strands near the scalp.
At first, she wasn’t sure what she had seen. Was it a tiny insect? A speck of dirt? Something caught during outdoor play? The uncertainty lasted only a few seconds, but it felt much longer.
Like many parents, Maria immediately worried about what it could mean. Questions rushed through her mind. Was her child safe? Was this something serious? Should she call a doctor right away?
