Description:
The Ambivalent Daughter: Memoir of a Conflicted Caregiver, is the compelling story of a mother and daughter struggling to adjust after the mother has a severe stroke. Suddenly Bethanie is faced with the need to assume responsibility for the care of her octogenarian mother who has become completely disabled. The two strong, independent women have never gotten along which complicates matters. Gertrude needs total care and moves to a nursing home near her daughter. Bethanie is a professor who is dedicated to her career and her husband. Gertrude is angry and despondent about how her life has turned out. She finds she has lost all her independence in the residential setting where everything is lockstep. Bethanie visits her mother daily to keep her spirits up and oversee her care. She observes nursing home practices that do not serve the best interests of her mother and becomes a fervent advocate for changes in the care her mother receives. She insists that her mother's emotional needs be addressed and as well as her medical ones and that more individualization of care be implemented. Through her reflections on the past, the reader gains insight into the reasons for her ambivalence. She feels increasingly torn between the needs of her mother, her husband, and her career and begins to show signs of stress and depression. Her only sibling lives in Canada, and she feels frustrated that she cannot be more involved in her mother's care causing dissension between the sisters. Bethanie's husband is supportive, but Bethanie feels guilty about how much time has been taken from their relationship by her mother's needs. The action takes place over one y

Amazing product for hand eczema
I've been seeing ads for this product for a while and finally decided to try it. I'm so glad I did! It's by far the best hand cream I've found for eczema. It doesn't sting at all, and my hands already look and feel so much better.

Best Product for Dry Skin!
Yes! This is the BEST product for dry skin I can’t live without it now! I have mild eczema and this is one of the best products that helps. It’s very calming, I sometimes mix it with a coconut oil too and I put it everywhere it makes my skin glow too! My friend was having the same issue and I recommended it to her and she messaged me right away saying it’s the only thing working for her. I also love the bubble bath products from the same company!

Effective but slightly greasy
I purchased this for my brother, who has been suffering from eczema and psoriasis for over a decade, and he's never been able to find a product that works for him for longer than a few weeks. The product had already leaked and wasn't packed properly when it arrived, so the sides of the jar were extremely greasy.
Absorption is great - it looks like the skin drinks it right up, if applied nominally. I can't speak to long-term effects yet, but there is an immediate reduction in redness and flakiness. Itching does not subside.

Highly recommend! Lifesaver for sensitive dry eczema
Bought this with their face wash, no regrets. My sensitive, peeling eczema face was getting red and uncomfortable (not to mention peeling no matter what special Derm sample products I tried). This is THICK. A little goes a long way. I pat it into my face and dry eczema patches after using the face wash. It lasts awhile, love that it contains aloe. My redness and literal peeling nose, cheek and chin are 80% better after using 2wks. Immediately felt better with first use. Cannot really use under makeup! This is heavy and a bedtime product.

It does work!
My child was diagnosed with severe eczema and takes the Dupixent shot once a month. He had to stop it for a month before and a month after in order to take his live MMR vaccine. This cream is the first one we have used the actually works. He will still have to get back on his shots, but for a baby with mild to moderate eczema, this might do the trick! Tried it on myself in a few spots and could tell a difference overnight.
