FLAVIUS. [Aside] Lord Lucius and Lucullus? Humh! TIMON. Go you, sir, to the senators,
Of whom, even to the state's best health, I have
Deserv'd this hearing. Bid 'em send o' th' instant
A thousand talents to me. FLAVIUS. I have been bold,
For that I knew it the most general way,
To them to use your signet and your name;
But they do shake their heads, and I am here
No richer in return. TIMON. Is't true? Can't be? FLAVIUS. They answer, in a joint and corporate voice,
That now they are at fall, want treasure, cannot
Do what they would, are sorry- you are honourable-
But yet they could have wish'd- they know not-
Something hath been amiss- a noble nature
May catch a wrench- would all were well!- 'tis pity-
And so, intending other serious matters,
After distasteful looks, and these hard fractions,
With certain half-caps and cold-moving nods,
They froze me into silence. TIMON. You gods, reward them! Prithee, man, look cheerly. These old fellows
Have their ingratitude in them hereditary. Their blood is cak'd, 'tis cold, it seldom flows;
'Tis lack of kindly warmth they are not kind;
And nature, as it grows again toward earth,
Is fashion'd for the journey dull and heavy. Go to Ventidius. Prithee be not sad,
Thou art true and honest; ingeniously I speak,
No blame belongs to thee. Ventidius lately
Buried his father, by whose death he's stepp'd
Into a great estate. When he was poor,
Imprison'd, and in scarcity of friends,
I clear'd him with five talents. Greet him from me,
Bid him suppose some good necessity
Touches his friend, which craves to be rememb'red
With those five talents. That had, give't these fellows
To whom 'tis instant due. Nev'r speak or think
That Timon's fortunes 'mong his friends can sink. FLAVIUS. I would I could not think it. That thought is bounty's foe;
Being free itself, it thinks all others so. Exeunt

A mother has described the heartbreak of watching her son scratch himself until he bled due to severe eczema. Jessica Chandler said her son Ollie, who is now nearly two, developed skin so dry and flaky it looked as though he has been in a fire. She was mortified when strangers repeatedly asked if Ollie had been burned, and felt paranoid other parents believed she was neglecting her son. After an embarrassing confrontation on a train, in which she was once again asked how her baby got burned, Miss Chandler became determined to find a treatment that would help. Ollie Chandler, now nearly two, suffered eczema so severe people asked if he had been burned in a fire . His mother Jessica, 27, began searching for a cure for her son's condition online, as she became paranoid people might think her son's appearance made her look neglectful . Miss Chandler said her son would scratch his skin until it bled, which was heartbreaking for her to watch . While doctors struggled to find a cure, Miss Chandler stumbled on a cream she claimed almost cured her son’s eczema within weeks. She is now calling for greater understanding of the condition to help other mothers whose children are affected. The 27-year-old said: ‘I’m well aware it isn’t life threatening but when you have a little one who is constantly in pain, irritable and uncomfortable and medical professionals don’t seem to take that seriously, it is incredibly frustrating. ‘My son’s eczema was so bad he would scratch himself until he bled which was heartbreaking. ‘As a mother, watching your little one suffer like that is awful - but nothing I was prescribed seemed to work. ‘It got the stage that people were constantly asking me what had happened to Ollie and I even started to get paranoid that people might think I wasn’t looking after him properly when nothing could have been further from the truth.’ Miss Chandler, a furniture restorer from Wolverhampton, said her son had struggled with the condition since he was born. She said: ‘Ollie developed a rash soon after birth that would come and go for weeks. But I was told it was nothing to worry about.’ But as the months passed she noticed dry patches on his face and elbow. Then in November last year the rash began to darken and spread leading Miss Chandler and her engineer fiancé David Bennett, 28, to think their son had chicken pox. After a yet another stranger asked how Ollie had been burned, Miss Chandler became determined to find a treatment that would help her son . She stumbled across a cream containing beeswax online, created by a mother who had become frustrated with the medications her daughter had been prescribed. She claims she saw an improvement within weeks . Their GP diagnosed an infection and prescribed antibiotics but the rash got worse and doctors eventually concluded that the tot was suffering with severe eczema. Miss Chandler said: ‘By this stage he was crying all the time because he could not stop scratching and it was very upsetting to see him so distraught.’ But the creams prescribed did little to combat symptoms and Miss Chandler instead turned to keeping her son wrapped in clothing to prevent him from being able to scratch while she tried different lotions. Purepotions has a range called Skin Salvation suitable for eczema sufferers. The products contain beeswax, which the manufacturer claims works as a natural antibacterial barrier, protecting the skin from external irritants. They also contain hemp, which is rich in essential fatty acids which are lacking in those with dry skin. Purepotions claims the products replenish dry skin with natural oils and have no known side effects. The products contains no parabens, preservatives or perfumes, they say. She says she grew self-conscious of people staring when they went out, especially after Ollie had managed to scratch himself during the night. Miss Chandler said: ‘It wasn’t unusual for Ollie to scratch himself until he bled. 'And on top of that, his skin was very dry and flaky and his hair always looked greasy due to all the creams and potions. ‘I was terrified that people would think he was neglected because he looked like such a sorry little thing. ‘I was up most nights online researching and doing everything I could to try and improve his condition.’ She struggled on with numerous creams, but became concerned she was rubbing chemicals into her son’s skin and seeing no improvement. The turning point came in December last year when she took Ollie on a day out to Birmingham on the train. As they took their seats a lady leaned over and with a concerned look asked Miss Chandler how her son’s face had been burned. She said: ‘When I tried to explain that Ollie had not been in a fire and the marks on his face were in fact eczema I felt like I was lying even thought it was the truth. ‘It made me more determined than ever to find something that worked.’ While searching for a cure online she found an article by a mother who had invented her own cream after becoming similarly frustrated with the medications her daughter had been prescribed. Within a few months of applying the cream daily she said the it nearly cured Ollie's eczema . Miss Chandler said: ‘Ollie is so much happier and not scratching anywhere near as much as he did'. He is pictured as a baby . Natalie Balmond had designed Skin Salvation in her kitchen after struggling with her daughter’s condition. Her company Purepotions had sold thousands of bottles and the cream was made available on prescription. When Miss Chandler read Purepotion’s Skin Salvation was available on the NHS she urged her GP to allow her to try it. After a few weeks of applying the cream daily, she claims she began to see an improvement, and has since seen 80 to 90 per cent of the eczema clear up. She said: ‘I am over the moon to have finally found something that works. ‘Ollie is so much happier and not scratching anywhere near as much as he did. ‘Finally he can enjoy being a happy child again and we can go out without people asking what has happened to him.’

She was mortified when strangers repeatedly asked if Ollie had been burned, and felt paranoid other parents believed she was neglecting her son. After an embarrassing confrontation on a train, in which she was once again asked how her baby got burned, Miss Chandler became determined to find a treatment that would help. Ollie Chandler, now nearly two, suffered eczema so severe people asked if he had been burned in a fire . His mother Jessica, 27, began searching for a cure for her son's condition online, as she became paranoid people might think her son's appearance made her look neglectful . Miss Chandler said her son would scratch his skin until it bled, which was heartbreaking for her to watch . While doctors struggled to find a cure, Miss Chandler stumbled on a cream she claimed almost cured her son’s eczema within weeks. She is now calling for greater understanding of the condition to help other mothers whose children are affected. The 27-year-old said: ‘I’m well aware it isn’t life threatening but when you have a little one who is constantly in pain, irritable and uncomfortable and medical professionals don’t seem to take that seriously, it is incredibly frustrating. ‘My son’s eczema was so bad he would scratch himself until he bled which was heartbreaking. ‘As a mother, watching your little one suffer like that is awful - but nothing I was prescribed seemed to work. ‘It got the stage that people were constantly asking me what had happened to Ollie and I even started to get paranoid that people might think I wasn’t looking after him properly when nothing could have been further from the truth.’ Miss Chandler, a furniture restorer from Wolverhampton, said her son had struggled with the condition since he was born. She said: ‘Ollie developed a rash soon after birth that would come and go for weeks. But I was told it was nothing to worry about.’ But as the months passed she noticed dry patches on his face and elbow. Then in November last year the rash began to darken and spread leading Miss Chandler and her engineer fiancé David Bennett, 28, to think their son had chicken pox. After a yet another stranger asked how Ollie had been burned, Miss Chandler became determined to find a treatment that would help her son . She stumbled across a cream containing beeswax online, created by a mother who had become frustrated with the medications her daughter had been prescribed. She claims she saw an improvement within weeks . Their GP diagnosed an infection and prescribed antibiotics but the rash got worse and doctors eventually concluded that the tot was suffering with severe eczema. Miss Chandler said: ‘By this stage he was crying all the time because he could not stop scratching and it was very upsetting to see him so distraught.’ But the creams prescribed did little to combat symptoms and Miss Chandler instead turned to keeping her son wrapped in clothing to prevent him from being able to scratch while she tried different lotions. Purepotions has a range called Skin Salvation suitable for eczema sufferers. The products contain beeswax, which the manufacturer claims works as a natural antibacterial barrier, protecting the skin from external irritants. They also contain hemp, which is rich in essential fatty acids which are lacking in those with dry skin. Purepotions claims the products replenish dry skin with natural oils and have no known side effects. The products contains no parabens, preservatives or perfumes, they say. She says she grew self-conscious of people staring when they went out, especially after Ollie had managed to scratch himself during the night. Miss Chandler said: ‘It wasn’t unusual for Ollie to scratch himself until he bled. 'And on top of that, his skin was very dry and flaky and his hair always looked greasy due to all the creams and potions. ‘I was terrified that people would think he was neglected because he looked like such a sorry little thing. ‘I was up most nights online researching and doing everything I could to try and improve his condition.’ She struggled on with numerous creams, but became concerned she was rubbing chemicals into her son’s skin and seeing no improvement. The turning point came in December last year when she took Ollie on a day out to Birmingham on the train. As they took their seats a lady leaned over and with a concerned look asked Miss Chandler how her son’s face had been burned. She said: ‘When I tried to explain that Ollie had not been in a fire and the marks on his face were in fact eczema I felt like I was lying even thought it was the truth. ‘It made me more determined than ever to find something that worked.’ While searching for a cure online she found an article by a mother who had invented her own cream after becoming similarly frustrated with the medications her daughter had been prescribed. Within a few months of applying the cream daily she said the it nearly cured Ollie's eczema . Miss Chandler said: ‘Ollie is so much happier and not scratching anywhere near as much as he did'. He is pictured as a baby . Natalie Balmond had designed Skin Salvation in her kitchen after struggling with her daughter’s condition. Her company Purepotions had sold thousands of bottles and the cream was made available on prescription. When Miss Chandler read Purepotion’s Skin Salvation was available on the NHS she urged her GP to allow her to try it. After a few weeks of applying the cream daily, she claims she began to see an improvement, and has since seen 80 to 90 per cent of the eczema clear up. She said: ‘I am over the moon to have finally found something that works. ‘Ollie is so much happier and not scratching anywhere near as much as he did. ‘Finally he can enjoy being a happy child again and we can go out without people asking what has happened to him.’

A mother has described the heartbreak of watching her son scratch himself until he bled due to severe eczema. Jessica Chandler said her son Ollie, who is now nearly two, developed skin so dry and flaky it looked as though he has been in a fire. She was mortified when strangers repeatedly asked if Ollie had been burned, and felt paranoid other parents believed she was neglecting her son. After an embarrassing confrontation on a train, in which she was once again asked how her baby got burned, Miss Chandler became determined to find a treatment that would help. Ollie Chandler, now nearly two, suffered eczema so severe people asked if he had been burned in a fire . His mother Jessica, 27, began searching for a cure for her son's condition online, as she became paranoid people might think her son's appearance made her look neglectful . Miss Chandler said her son would scratch his skin until it bled, which was heartbreaking for her to watch . While doctors struggled to find a cure, Miss Chandler stumbled on a cream she claimed almost cured her son’s eczema within weeks. She is now calling for greater understanding of the condition to help other mothers whose children are affected. The 27-year-old said: ‘I’m well aware it isn’t life threatening but when you have a little one who is constantly in pain, irritable and uncomfortable and medical professionals don’t seem to take that seriously, it is incredibly frustrating. ‘My son’s eczema was so bad he would scratch himself until he bled which was heartbreaking. ‘As a mother, watching your little one suffer like that is awful - but nothing I was prescribed seemed to work. ‘It got the stage that people were constantly asking me what had happened to Ollie and I even started to get paranoid that people might think I wasn’t looking after him properly when nothing could have been further from the truth.’ Miss Chandler, a furniture restorer from Wolverhampton, said her son had struggled with the condition since he was born. She said: ‘Ollie developed a rash soon after birth that would come and go for weeks. But I was told it was nothing to worry about.’ But as the months passed she noticed dry patches on his face and elbow. Then in November last year the rash began to darken and spread leading Miss Chandler and her engineer fiancé David Bennett, 28, to think their son had chicken pox. After a yet another stranger asked how Ollie had been burned, Miss Chandler became determined to find a treatment that would help her son . She stumbled across a cream containing beeswax online, created by a mother who had become frustrated with the medications her daughter had been prescribed. She claims she saw an improvement within weeks . Their GP diagnosed an infection and prescribed antibiotics but the rash got worse and doctors eventually concluded that the tot was suffering with severe eczema. Miss Chandler said: ‘By this stage he was crying all the time because he could not stop scratching and it was very upsetting to see him so distraught.’ But the creams prescribed did little to combat symptoms and Miss Chandler instead turned to keeping her son wrapped in clothing to prevent him from being able to scratch while she tried different lotions. Purepotions has a range called Skin Salvation suitable for eczema sufferers. The products contain beeswax, which the manufacturer claims works as a natural antibacterial barrier, protecting the skin from external irritants. They also contain hemp, which is rich in essential fatty acids which are lacking in those with dry skin. Purepotions claims the products replenish dry skin with natural oils and have no known side effects. The products contains no parabens, preservatives or perfumes, they say. She says she grew self-conscious of people staring when they went out, especially after Ollie had managed to scratch himself during the night. Miss Chandler said: ‘It wasn’t unusual for Ollie to scratch himself until he bled. 'And on top of that, his skin was very dry and flaky and his hair always looked greasy due to all the creams and potions. ‘I was terrified that people would think he was neglected because he looked like such a sorry little thing. ‘I was up most nights online researching and doing everything I could to try and improve his condition.’ She struggled on with numerous creams, but became concerned she was rubbing chemicals into her son’s skin and seeing no improvement. The turning point came in December last year when she took Ollie on a day out to Birmingham on the train. As they took their seats a lady leaned over and with a concerned look asked Miss Chandler how her son’s face had been burned. She said: ‘When I tried to explain that Ollie had not been in a fire and the marks on his face were in fact eczema I felt like I was lying even thought it was the truth. ‘It made me more determined than ever to find something that worked.’ While searching for a cure online she found an article by a mother who had invented her own cream after becoming similarly frustrated with the medications her daughter had been prescribed. Within a few months of applying the cream daily she said the it nearly cured Ollie's eczema . Miss Chandler said: ‘Ollie is so much happier and not scratching anywhere near as much as he did'. He is pictured as a baby . Natalie Balmond had designed Skin Salvation in her kitchen after struggling with her daughter’s condition. Her company Purepotions had sold thousands of bottles and the cream was made available on prescription. When Miss Chandler read Purepotion’s Skin Salvation was available on the NHS she urged her GP to allow her to try it.

The 27-year-old said: ‘I’m well aware it isn’t life threatening but when you have a little one who is constantly in pain, irritable and uncomfortable and medical professionals don’t seem to take that seriously, it is incredibly frustrating. ‘My son’s eczema was so bad he would scratch himself until he bled which was heartbreaking. ‘As a mother, watching your little one suffer like that is awful - but nothing I was prescribed seemed to work. ‘It got the stage that people were constantly asking me what had happened to Ollie and I even started to get paranoid that people might think I wasn’t looking after him properly when nothing could have been further from the truth.’ Miss Chandler, a furniture restorer from Wolverhampton, said her son had struggled with the condition since he was born. She said: ‘Ollie developed a rash soon after birth that would come and go for weeks. But I was told it was nothing to worry about.’ But as the months passed she noticed dry patches on his face and elbow. Then in November last year the rash began to darken and spread leading Miss Chandler and her engineer fiancé David Bennett, 28, to think their son had chicken pox. After a yet another stranger asked how Ollie had been burned, Miss Chandler became determined to find a treatment that would help her son . She stumbled across a cream containing beeswax online, created by a mother who had become frustrated with the medications her daughter had been prescribed. She claims she saw an improvement within weeks . Their GP diagnosed an infection and prescribed antibiotics but the rash got worse and doctors eventually concluded that the tot was suffering with severe eczema. Miss Chandler said: ‘By this stage he was crying all the time because he could not stop scratching and it was very upsetting to see him so distraught.’ But the creams prescribed did little to combat symptoms and Miss Chandler instead turned to keeping her son wrapped in clothing to prevent him from being able to scratch while she tried different lotions. Purepotions has a range called Skin Salvation suitable for eczema sufferers. The products contain beeswax, which the manufacturer claims works as a natural antibacterial barrier, protecting the skin from external irritants. They also contain hemp, which is rich in essential fatty acids which are lacking in those with dry skin. Purepotions claims the products replenish dry skin with natural oils and have no known side effects. The products contains no parabens, preservatives or perfumes, they say. She says she grew self-conscious of people staring when they went out, especially after Ollie had managed to scratch himself during the night. Miss Chandler said: ‘It wasn’t unusual for Ollie to scratch himself until he bled. 'And on top of that, his skin was very dry and flaky and his hair always looked greasy due to all the creams and potions. ‘I was terrified that people would think he was neglected because he looked like such a sorry little thing. ‘I was up most nights online researching and doing everything I could to try and improve his condition.’ She struggled on with numerous creams, but became concerned she was rubbing chemicals into her son’s skin and seeing no improvement. The turning point came in December last year when she took Ollie on a day out to Birmingham on the train. As they took their seats a lady leaned over and with a concerned look asked Miss Chandler how her son’s face had been burned. She said: ‘When I tried to explain that Ollie had not been in a fire and the marks on his face were in fact eczema I felt like I was lying even thought it was the truth. ‘It made me more determined than ever to find something that worked.’ While searching for a cure online she found an article by a mother who had invented her own cream after becoming similarly frustrated with the medications her daughter had been prescribed. Within a few months of applying the cream daily she said the it nearly cured Ollie's eczema . Miss Chandler said: ‘Ollie is so much happier and not scratching anywhere near as much as he did'. He is pictured as a baby . Natalie Balmond had designed Skin Salvation in her kitchen after struggling with her daughter’s condition. Her company Purepotions had sold thousands of bottles and the cream was made available on prescription. When Miss Chandler read Purepotion’s Skin Salvation was available on the NHS she urged her GP to allow her to try it. After a few weeks of applying the cream daily, she claims she began to see an improvement, and has since seen 80 to 90 per cent of the eczema clear up. She said: ‘I am over the moon to have finally found something that works. ‘Ollie is so much happier and not scratching anywhere near as much as he did. ‘Finally he can enjoy being a happy child again and we can go out without people asking what has happened to him.’

A mother has described the heartbreak of watching her son scratch himself until he bled due to severe eczema. Jessica Chandler said her son Ollie, who is now nearly two, developed skin so dry and flaky it looked as though he has been in a fire. She was mortified when strangers repeatedly asked if Ollie had been burned, and felt paranoid other parents believed she was neglecting her son. After an embarrassing confrontation on a train, in which she was once again asked how her baby got burned, Miss Chandler became determined to find a treatment that would help. Ollie Chandler, now nearly two, suffered eczema so severe people asked if he had been burned in a fire . His mother Jessica, 27, began searching for a cure for her son's condition online, as she became paranoid people might think her son's appearance made her look neglectful . Miss Chandler said her son would scratch his skin until it bled, which was heartbreaking for her to watch . While doctors struggled to find a cure, Miss Chandler stumbled on a cream she claimed almost cured her son’s eczema within weeks. She is now calling for greater understanding of the condition to help other mothers whose children are affected. The 27-year-old said: ‘I’m well aware it isn’t life threatening but when you have a little one who is constantly in pain, irritable and uncomfortable and medical professionals don’t seem to take that seriously, it is incredibly frustrating. ‘My son’s eczema was so bad he would scratch himself until he bled which was heartbreaking. ‘As a mother, watching your little one suffer like that is awful - but nothing I was prescribed seemed to work. ‘It got the stage that people were constantly asking me what had happened to Ollie and I even started to get paranoid that people might think I wasn’t looking after him properly when nothing could have been further from the truth.’ Miss Chandler, a furniture restorer from Wolverhampton, said her son had struggled with the condition since he was born. She said: ‘Ollie developed a rash soon after birth that would come and go for weeks. But I was told it was nothing to worry about.’ But as the months passed she noticed dry patches on his face and elbow. Then in November last year the rash began to darken and spread leading Miss Chandler and her engineer fiancé David Bennett, 28, to think their son had chicken pox. After a yet another stranger asked how Ollie had been burned, Miss Chandler became determined to find a treatment that would help her son . She stumbled across a cream containing beeswax online, created by a mother who had become frustrated with the medications her daughter had been prescribed. She claims she saw an improvement within weeks . Their GP diagnosed an infection and prescribed antibiotics but the rash got worse and doctors eventually concluded that the tot was suffering with severe eczema. Miss Chandler said: ‘By this stage he was crying all the time because he could not stop scratching and it was very upsetting to see him so distraught.’ But the creams prescribed did little to combat symptoms and Miss Chandler instead turned to keeping her son wrapped in clothing to prevent him from being able to scratch while she tried different lotions. Purepotions has a range called Skin Salvation suitable for eczema sufferers. The products contain beeswax, which the manufacturer claims works as a natural antibacterial barrier, protecting the skin from external irritants. They also contain hemp, which is rich in essential fatty acids which are lacking in those with dry skin. Purepotions claims the products replenish dry skin with natural oils and have no known side effects. The products contains no parabens, preservatives or perfumes, they say.

A mother has described the heartbreak of watching her son scratch himself until he bled due to severe eczema. Jessica Chandler said her son Ollie, who is now nearly two, developed skin so dry and flaky it looked as though he has been in a fire. She was mortified when strangers repeatedly asked if Ollie had been burned, and felt paranoid other parents believed she was neglecting her son. After an embarrassing confrontation on a train, in which she was once again asked how her baby got burned, Miss Chandler became determined to find a treatment that would help. Ollie Chandler, now nearly two, suffered eczema so severe people asked if he had been burned in a fire . His mother Jessica, 27, began searching for a cure for her son's condition online, as she became paranoid people might think her son's appearance made her look neglectful . Miss Chandler said her son would scratch his skin until it bled, which was heartbreaking for her to watch . While doctors struggled to find a cure, Miss Chandler stumbled on a cream she claimed almost cured her son’s eczema within weeks. She is now calling for greater understanding of the condition to help other mothers whose children are affected. The 27-year-old said: ‘I’m well aware it isn’t life threatening but when you have a little one who is constantly in pain, irritable and uncomfortable and medical professionals don’t seem to take that seriously, it is incredibly frustrating. ‘My son’s eczema was so bad he would scratch himself until he bled which was heartbreaking. ‘As a mother, watching your little one suffer like that is awful - but nothing I was prescribed seemed to work. ‘It got the stage that people were constantly asking me what had happened to Ollie and I even started to get paranoid that people might think I wasn’t looking after him properly when nothing could have been further from the truth.’ Miss Chandler, a furniture restorer from Wolverhampton, said her son had struggled with the condition since he was born. She said: ‘Ollie developed a rash soon after birth that would come and go for weeks. But I was told it was nothing to worry about.’ But as the months passed she noticed dry patches on his face and elbow. Then in November last year the rash began to darken and spread leading Miss Chandler and her engineer fiancé David Bennett, 28, to think their son had chicken pox. After a yet another stranger asked how Ollie had been burned, Miss Chandler became determined to find a treatment that would help her son . She stumbled across a cream containing beeswax online, created by a mother who had become frustrated with the medications her daughter had been prescribed. She claims she saw an improvement within weeks . Their GP diagnosed an infection and prescribed antibiotics but the rash got worse and doctors eventually concluded that the tot was suffering with severe eczema. Miss Chandler said: ‘By this stage he was crying all the time because he could not stop scratching and it was very upsetting to see him so distraught.’ But the creams prescribed did little to combat symptoms and Miss Chandler instead turned to keeping her son wrapped in clothing to prevent him from being able to scratch while she tried different lotions. Purepotions has a range called Skin Salvation suitable for eczema sufferers. The products contain beeswax, which the manufacturer claims works as a natural antibacterial barrier, protecting the skin from external irritants. They also contain hemp, which is rich in essential fatty acids which are lacking in those with dry skin. Purepotions claims the products replenish dry skin with natural oils and have no known side effects. The products contains no parabens, preservatives or perfumes, they say. She says she grew self-conscious of people staring when they went out, especially after Ollie had managed to scratch himself during the night. Miss Chandler said: ‘It wasn’t unusual for Ollie to scratch himself until he bled. 'And on top of that, his skin was very dry and flaky and his hair always looked greasy due to all the creams and potions. ‘I was terrified that people would think he was neglected because he looked like such a sorry little thing. ‘I was up most nights online researching and doing everything I could to try and improve his condition.’ She struggled on with numerous creams, but became concerned she was rubbing chemicals into her son’s skin and seeing no improvement. The turning point came in December last year when she took Ollie on a day out to Birmingham on the train. As they took their seats a lady leaned over and with a concerned look asked Miss Chandler how her son’s face had been burned. She said: ‘When I tried to explain that Ollie had not been in a fire and the marks on his face were in fact eczema I felt like I was lying even thought it was the truth. ‘It made me more determined than ever to find something that worked.’ While searching for a cure online she found an article by a mother who had invented her own cream after becoming similarly frustrated with the medications her daughter had been prescribed. Within a few months of applying the cream daily she said the it nearly cured Ollie's eczema . Miss Chandler said: ‘Ollie is so much happier and not scratching anywhere near as much as he did'. He is pictured as a baby . Natalie Balmond had designed Skin Salvation in her kitchen after struggling with her daughter’s condition. Her company Purepotions had sold thousands of bottles and the cream was made available on prescription. When Miss Chandler read Purepotion’s Skin Salvation was available on the NHS she urged her GP to allow her to try it. After a few weeks of applying the cream daily, she claims she began to see an improvement, and has since seen 80 to 90 per cent of the eczema clear up. She said: ‘I am over the moon to have finally found something that works. ‘Ollie is so much happier and not scratching anywhere near as much as he did. ‘Finally he can enjoy being a happy child again and we can go out without people asking what has happened to him.’

my grandfather is dying. not "on death's door" dying, but he's on his way out with multiple organ failure. i've never met him, and the other one died 20+ years before i was born. from what i know he's kind of a bastard, but i figured i should at least meet the guy before he dies. so far, so good.
except for how i'm getting there.
see, my mom has gone a bit wonky in the head since *her* mom (ex-wife of dying grandfather) died a few years ago. uberbitch with moodswings, threatened to kill my step-dad, broke up with my step-dad, mutual restraining orders soon followed by reconciliation, etc. the usual white trash emotional shuffle.
my step-dad is a bit of an over-bearing macho guy, but deals with my mom fairly well. they just bicker with each other constantly, about everything. they argue about arguing with each other. they wake up at 3am and whisper angrily at each other for 20 minutes before going back to bed. they cannot go more than an hour without an argument.
as you may expect, i can't deal with this for extended periods of time. don't get me wrong, i love my mom. i just don't respect her ever since i was embroiled in the argument about her giving my step-dad a blowjob, right before she nearly got arrested and i had to drive her drunk ass to a family friend's house so she wouldn't be. that kinda thing tarnishes the silverware.
how do all of these things tie in together? well, my grandfather lives somewhere on the new york side of the vermont border. my mom lives in california. they hate flying, and want to visit other family that lives between us and the nearly departed. i'm a broke college student and can't afford to buy a plane ticket.
so we're driving there. and then back, 2 weeks later. all three of us and a chihuahua.
i just checked the distance and driving time. 5,286 miles and roughly 80 hours, round trip.
we leave in 4 days.

my grandfather is dying. not "on death's door" dying, but he's on his way out with multiple organ failure. i've never met him, and the other one died 20+ years before i was born. from what i know he's kind of a bastard, but i figured i should at least meet the guy before he dies. so far, so good.
except for how i'm getting there.
see, my mom has gone a bit wonky in the head since *her* mom (ex-wife of dying grandfather) died a few years ago. uberbitch with moodswings, threatened to kill my step-dad, broke up with my step-dad, mutual restraining orders soon followed by reconciliation, etc. the usual white trash emotional shuffle.
my step-dad is a bit of an over-bearing macho guy, but deals with my mom fairly well. they just bicker with each other constantly, about everything. they argue about arguing with each other. they wake up at 3am and whisper angrily at each other for 20 minutes before going back to bed. they cannot go more than an hour without an argument.
as you may expect, i can't deal with this for extended periods of time. don't get me wrong, i love my mom. i just don't respect her ever since i was embroiled in the argument about her giving my step-dad a blowjob, right before she nearly got arrested and i had to drive her drunk ass to a family friend's house so she wouldn't be. that kinda thing tarnishes the silverware.
how do all of these things tie in together? well, my grandfather lives somewhere on the new york side of the vermont border. my mom lives in california. they hate flying, and want to visit other family that lives between us and the nearly departed. i'm a broke college student and can't afford to buy a plane ticket.
so we're driving there. and then back, 2 weeks later. all three of us and a chihuahua.
i just checked the distance and driving time. 5,286 miles and roughly 80 hours, round trip.
we leave in 4 days.

as you may expect, i can't deal with this for extended periods of time. don't get me wrong, i love my mom. i just don't respect her ever since i was embroiled in the argument about her giving my step-dad a blowjob, right before she nearly got arrested and i had to drive her drunk ass to a family friend's house so she wouldn't be. that kinda thing tarnishes the silverware.
how do all of these things tie in together? well, my grandfather lives somewhere on the new york side of the vermont border. my mom lives in california. they hate flying, and want to visit other family that lives between us and the nearly departed. i'm a broke college student and can't afford to buy a plane ticket.
so we're driving there. and then back, 2 weeks later. all three of us and a chihuahua.
i just checked the distance and driving time. 5,286 miles and roughly 80 hours, round trip.
we leave in 4 days.

my grandfather is dying. not "on death's door" dying, but he's on his way out with multiple organ failure. i've never met him, and the other one died 20+ years before i was born. from what i know he's kind of a bastard, but i figured i should at least meet the guy before he dies. so far, so good.

how do all of these things tie in together? well, my grandfather lives somewhere on the new york side of the vermont border. my mom lives in california. they hate flying, and want to visit other family that lives between us and the nearly departed. i'm a broke college student and can't afford to buy a plane ticket.
so we're driving there. and then back, 2 weeks later. all three of us and a chihuahua.
i just checked the distance and driving time. 5,286 miles and roughly 80 hours, round trip.
we leave in 4 days.

my grandfather is dying. not "on death's door" dying, but he's on his way out with multiple organ failure. i've never met him, and the other one died 20+ years before i was born. from what i know he's kind of a bastard, but i figured i should at least meet the guy before he dies. so far, so good.
except for how i'm getting there.
see, my mom has gone a bit wonky in the head since *her* mom (ex-wife of dying grandfather) died a few years ago. uberbitch with moodswings, threatened to kill my step-dad, broke up with my step-dad, mutual restraining orders soon followed by reconciliation, etc. the usual white trash emotional shuffle.

i like to keep my room really cold at night. i open the window and prop a fan in it, so i continuously blow cold air into the room. i can usually get the room down to 45 degrees f. i sleep with two quilts, so i'm fine. i get concerned sometimes, though, that my dog will get too cold.
she sleeps in the bed with me, but usually on the other side of the mattress. she has her own little nest made out of my spare blankets, and curls up in a little ball. well, considering how cold i've been keeping my room, i've started inviting her to snuggle with me. i'll wrap myself in one of my quilts like a burrito, and then drape the second quilt over both of us. she'll tuck up in a little ball, and if you looked into the room you'd only see my face. everything else is buried under blankets.
it's really adorable and last night i turned over and scratched her under the chin and kept a hand in her fur while we both drifted off to sleep. i tucked my face under the blankets and we developed this warm cocoon...
until she farted.

i like to keep my room really cold at night. i open the window and prop a fan in it, so i continuously blow cold air into the room. i can usually get the room down to 45 degrees f. i sleep with two quilts, so i'm fine. i get concerned sometimes, though, that my dog will get too cold.
she sleeps in the bed with me, but usually on the other side of the mattress. she has her own little nest made out of my spare blankets, and curls up in a little ball. well, considering how cold i've been keeping my room, i've started inviting her to snuggle with me. i'll wrap myself in one of my quilts like a burrito, and then drape the second quilt over both of us. she'll tuck up in a little ball, and if you looked into the room you'd only see my face. everything else is buried under blankets.
it's really adorable and last night i turned over and scratched her under the chin and kept a hand in her fur while we both drifted off to sleep. i tucked my face under the blankets and we developed this warm cocoon...
until she farted.

i like to keep my room really cold at night. i open the window and prop a fan in it, so i continuously blow cold air into the room. i can usually get the room down to 45 degrees f. i sleep with two quilts, so i'm fine. i get concerned sometimes, though, that my dog will get too cold.
she sleeps in the bed with me, but usually on the other side of the mattress. she has her own little nest made out of my spare blankets, and curls up in a little ball. well, considering how cold i've been keeping my room, i've started inviting her to snuggle with me. i'll wrap myself in one of my quilts like a burrito, and then drape the second quilt over both of us. she'll tuck up in a little ball, and if you looked into the room you'd only see my face. everything else is buried under blankets.
it's really adorable and last night i turned over and scratched her under the chin and kept a hand in her fur while we both drifted off to sleep. i tucked my face under the blankets and we developed this warm cocoon...
until she farted.
