The little boy who can only eat BOILED SWEETS: Three-year-old suffers extreme allergic reaction to all foods except Glacier Mints

Finley Ranson, from Essex, has a condition which means his body fights food as if it were a virus, causing him to bleed internally. His mother, Rhys, 27, only discovered her son was able to eat the boiled sweets after a tip from another mother at a support group. She has even taken to melting down the boiled sweets into 'ice lollies' to make them more appetising for her little boy. Finley, who has to be fed six times per day through his tube, has already undergone 10 operations during his young life to replace or re-locate his feeding tube as well as exploratory procedures.
