Ointment appeal for disabled teen on 'last tube'
Briefly

The family of George Rabbett-Smith, a disabled teenager, is struggling to find Metanium nappy rash ointment, crucial for treating his pressure sores. After its discontinuation due to supply issues, online sellers have begun charging up to £30 for a product that originally retailed for less than £6. His mother, Hilary Rabbett, expressed outrage at the inflated prices, labeling the sellers as 'morally corrupt.' Despite alternative treatments, they are inadequate for George's condition, causing distress due to his inability to communicate pain.
