Unfotunately, I had to cancel church tonight. I rarely do so, but the last time we had church right after an ice storm, Sister Jericho fell and busted her sitdownski outside.

Ouch, that is very painful.

My sister keeps telling me that I should get a license and go into herbal medicine.

I do the research myself-- and try to find things that won't kill us that will replace antibiotics. Myrhh gum capsules seem to work similar to an antibiotic.

So many people get the antibiotics so often that they become immune to them... eventually they are going to have these superbugs that nothing can touch because they've taken so many antibiotics. The thoughts of that is scary...

MissB...for the runny nose try a Neti-Pot...

They work Great...

There are very few antibiotics I can take. I have allergic reactions or adverse side effects. I may research alternatives myself. Thanks.

MissB, Randy is suggesting pot for a runny nose.

Just say no.

We have a health food/supplement store that will probably have it. I'll check with them.

We used to have a regular herbal...expert (my husband secretly called her the witch doctor...LOL) in Missouri--I miss having her close by. She's awesome. Some people do have a natural ability to "heal", for lack of a better term. The same good intuition a good doctor has, I guess.

You should get into it!

That got me depressed, cause I don't feel successful at all.

I do take joy in my children. I have great kids. God has been good. I suppose they are one of the few things I've done right.

I think perhaps you are being a bit too critical of yourself.

We all have those days though... so I understand what you're saying. It's just human nature.

Raising great kids is a major accomplishment- especially in today's world. Take a look around you at how other kids have turned out and you can really be proud of the job you did raising your kids!
