Phoenix dactylifera

Year 2023, Issue 40CaseAuthor: Michaela Zorzi
Boy, 15, eczema
He has a very itchy eczema, swelling and pustules on his face, cheeks, hands and arms. His heels itch. He is allergic to date palms.
It started after a party where he saw that other families had many children and came from a religious background and that his own family did not. His whole world collapsed, the image of himself was destroyed. He felt different, much more inferior, a nobody, having no important members in his family. He was devastated.
In the same period his father was often abroad for work, to earn money. He suffered as he was very much attached to his father, who would spend so much time with him always, playing studying together. But he said nothing, as usual. His mother did her best but it wasn't enough. The income of the family became less and he was ashamed. He told his mother that everyone will see how ugly his things are, brown and short. He felt, his family was worthless, his father was never with him, and now everyone will see we has no money. Reassurance form his father did not help.
He is always tired and heavy. When it gets worse he feels like stoned.
He is a friend of everyone: big, small, old, young, babies, black, white. And everyone is his very best friend. He is extremely calm, his inner most inner character is calm, happy and loving. He is averse talking about his problems and says everything is fine with him.
