Chickenpox Chickenpox is a virus caused by the varicella zoster virus, and usually affects people during childhood, and is typically only contracted once in a person’s life. Chickenpox manifests initially in the form of a skin rash, and then develops into specific pockmarks that can cover a large percentage of the skin area. Typically, the rash and pockmarks are limited to the body and head, but it is not uncommon for it to also affect the limbs. The rash can last anywhere from a few days to a few weeks, but the different treatment options you pursue can dramatically alter how long the recovery and healing process will be.

A Story told by Emmanuel Adebayor

SEA, I have kept these stories for a long time but I think today it is worth sharing some of them with you. It's true that family matters should be solved internally and not in public but I am doing this so that hopefully all families can learn from what happened in mine. Also keep in mind that none of this is about money.

At the age of 17, with my first wages as a footballer, I built a house for my family and made sure they are safe. As you all know, I have received the trophy of African Player of the Year in 2008. I also brought my mother on stage with me to thank her for everything. In that same year, I brought her to London for various medical check ups. When my daughter was born, we contacted my mum to inform her but she immediately hung up the phone and didn't wanna know hear about it. Reading your recent comments, some people said my family and I should consult T.B Joshua. In 2013, I gave my mother money so she could consult him in Nigeria. She was supposed to stay for 1 week; but 2 days into her stay, I received a call saying she left. Apart from all that l also gave my mother a great amount of money to start a business of cookies and different items. Naturally, I allowed them to put my name and picture on them so they can sell more. What else can a son do in his power to support his family?

CONFESSION: He Is No Longer Performing

• I have been married for five years and have two boys. I am still the way I was before child-bearing. My shape and slim looks are still intact and many people who don’t know still see me as a hot spinster and I always tell the guys that I’m happily married and they should stay off.

But an issue is shaking the foundations of my marriage. My husband has had little or no interest in sex for about a year. I have tried to find out why he suddenly lost interest in sex but he is not forthcoming. 

We have a good relationship apart from this problem but I cannot remain like this for long. I have done all kinds of things to seduce him. I’ve tried lingerie, backrubs, and romantic dinners, but nothing works. 

I don’t know what else to do. Please help me.
