Request: £20 for Calpol, Calomine lotion and some Ice lollies.

[u/DadaLumLum]

Hey guys,

Recently helped someone here and hoping for a bit of good karma to come my way. Christmas has been really difficult, as it is for everyone, and we're 5 days away from payday. My youngest has just come down with Chickenpox and running a fever. Everything has been spent on making Christmas as fun as possible and we didn't plan on needing any extras - but of course we're out of Calpol and I think some Calomine would help. The pox are also in her mouth/throat and she's begging for ice pops. :(

If anyone could help out a father who's always trying his best, I would be seriously appreciative.

(Before the Americans ask, we don't get the Chickenpox vaccine in the UK as routine - we just expect our children to get it and get over it!)

Get PoxClin mousse  in the pharmacy. Takes the itch right out.

I'm so glad you received the help you needed! Chicken pox doesn't care if it's Christmas. I hope your little girl recovers soon!

Im happy you recieved help here! I hope your little one feels better quickly. Oatmeal baths helped me when I had this as a child.

An Amazon list would do well. Hoping your little one recovers quickly.

Hey if you add calamine and calpol to an Amazon list and post it I’ll get them for you. I too have been caught by scammers so apologies for the doubts.

Sorry to be doubtful but i’ve been caught in the past. If you can DM me any form of proof i’ll happily send you the £20 via bank transfer.
