Any success stories for kids on dupixent?

Hello! We are thinking about using Dupixent for my 7-year-old who has chronic eczema. If you have any experience with this medication, please share your story. I want to make sure this is the right option.

My acne journey at 30

During the first few months, because my skin was particularly sensitive and my cystic acne was painful, I adopted a gentle skincare routine. I would wash my face with a mild, fragrance-free cleanser before bed, then carefully pat it dry with a soft towel. Afterward, I applied a thin layer of aloe vera gel to soothe and hydrate the skin, allowing it to absorb and dry fully. Once the skin was dry, I gently applied a small amount of tretinoin cream to my face. In the morning, I would wash my face, then apply Winlevi, followed by Vanicream Daily Facial Moisturizer, to maintain hydration and barrier protection. To this day I keep a very minimal skincare regimen. Sometimes less, is more. 😊

Do we even have a future?

I'm curious if anyone has had conversations with their parents, grandparents, or other older adults to ask whether, when they were our age (25-40, Millennials and Gen Z) if they experienced similar feelings of darkness and uncertainty about their future? I have spoken with friends and co-workers my sage and we all feel like we are in this deep hole that we can't get out of. We feel so far behind in life. Many of us not being homeowners.

And at this rate, I wonder if I will ever be able to afford to buy one. We did everything by the book: got a degree, worked hard, and saved. Yet, with inflation soaring and housing prices skyrocketing, it’s impossible to afford a home on a single income. It's this this sense of dread like what's the point of this? It feels like there is no going forward for us.

Please help my mother, who has endured a difficult childhood, survived domestic violence, and raised six children on her own. Let’s support her in keeping her home.

Hello world! I'm reaching out with a heavy heart to ask if you'd be willing to help amplify my strong, resilient, Mexican mom's story.

Tyson shut down its Lexington, Nebraska plant-leaving nearly 3k people without income. Tyson and its billionaire investors walked away, but working-class Hispanic/Latino families like mine are left facing housing insecurity and uncertainty.

My mom is now facing the possibility of losing her home, and we also just learned that her 401(k) balance is $O so the retirement she planned for in five years is no longer possible. In a matter of days, she lost her job, her retirement plan, and the stability she worked her entire life to build.

I've set up a GoFundMe to help my mom keep her home and find stability, and I've shared her story publicly on TikTok, Instagram and Facebook to raise awareness. Any support-sharing, watching, or reading-would truly help.

(WITH PROOF) I attached articles written about this closure and my mom’s story!
