Husband Allergic To His Own Wife
11/02/09 - Wacky News

“A South Yorkshire man claims to be allergic to his wife and says he comes out in a rash whenever he goes near her. Darren Young, 45, is allergic to a component regularly used in common creams and body lotions, reports The Sun. His heart rate soars – and could even stop – and his body swells if he comes into contact with the chemical, known as polyethylene glycol. Mr Young, a bus driver from Sprotbrough, says he cannot get close to his wife Sue unless she is free of all creams. He said: “When it comes to bedtime Sue doesn’t need a headache as an excuse. She just says she has been using body lotion and it might kill me.” w/ photo
