Thank you for the kind words of support for Alexis (Lex). Yes, she is a strong lady and has a great and positive attitude but she also is getting her affairs in order. The doctor ordered a bone and full body scan to see if it has spread. It's more serious than we thought.
Arthur, my heart goes out to you and your family. I can't imagine what you are going through, but I know it's gotta be hard. I have put you in my prayers.
Eunice, I was wondering how your dad was doing. I am sorry to hear it's gotten to this point. You and your family are in my prayers too.
I am printing out that info from Dog on that herb. Lex is one who will try anything to stay healthy. In fact, I think I will order it for her.
You never know what others are going through in their private lives. My heart was hurting for Lex and now it hurts for you guys who are fighting for your own health or that of a loved ones. I believe in the power of prayer and I strongly believe in miracles. I have some prayin' to do tonight.
Ok, now for some happy talk...today was a beautiful day so I got up early and had to go to the doggie store for some food. On the way there, my SUV saw some garage sales and took control of the driving. So, I had no choice but to stop...at 3 of them. The first one I bought 3 very old photographs taken in the 20's/30's of people I don't know. Bought them for 50 cents each and they are so cool looking. 2 are still in the old paper/cardboad frames. I have named the people and will find some old frames to put them on the wall. I know that sounds strange but they are so cool looking. Then I stopped at another yard sale and bought 2 lamp bases (black wrought iron and very nice) for $2 each. Saw them yesterday on the way to work and wanted to stop but didn't...was lucky they were still there today. My oldest son needs some things for his place and these are perfect. 3rd garage sale place was a dud. Sometimes I can find the best treasures. Don't go very often but I sure do have fun when I do.
Brewing the tea is not hard, skip the caps, extract and ready made tea bags though. The 4 herbs is the way and not hard to brew at all. I'm sorry to hear of all the cancer, it's horrible. My Sis worked Hospice in SE CT many years. Patients were asking nurses for Reiki. I trained over 100 SE CT hospice nurses in Reiki 1st degree a couple in 2nd and 1 master. The head of SE Hospice trained also. The feedback was wonderful, it was comforting to the patients. It was officially billed as massage though, reiki wasn't "OK". Dog
and no, it's not a second teardrop, it's a yard project
