Can I be me? Really? And you'll still like me?


Yesterday early morning, I recieved an email from a friend of mine. She uses herbs as well to help when you're ill. I'm a very firm believer in herbs. I used to have a cabinate full of herbs, but when we moved here, I gave them to my best friend, because we didn't have the room for them. :o( I made tinctures and teas and lip balms and tonics and all kinds of things to help when we got ill. Well, she was telling me that what I was describing sort of sounded like what was going around at her daughter's school and she was giving her daughter these certain mix of herbs. So, my husband and I went and got them, and I did exactly what she told me to do....and I'm happy to say that my mouth is about 85% better and my throat is about 85% better as well! :o) I rested as well and kept taking them just as she said! :o) I'm still going to go to the doctor today. :o) I just can't thank her enough! :o) After that, my husband said that he thinks that I need to go and start getting my herbs back again, and we'll make room for them! :o) Cool! :o)
It seems that aol let me have most of my alerts today. And allowed me to even comment too! lol :o) How about that! :o) I also want to thank everyone for your advise. I did write them all down. Because I can go over all of them with the doctor. :o) I am very appreciative for all of your help as well. :o) I'm also really going to bring up the thing about peanuts! That is very intersting!

I was reading a journal this morning, and I had to laugh...on the inside! :o) It just brought to my mind of someone I used to know. lol Thats all. :o) How someone is like an iguana! They can just be who they want to be, because of the people that are around them, so then thats who they are. lol Too funny. :o) Then, they just meld into the crowd! :o) Seen it happen too many times. :o) I'm me..what you see, is what you get! And thats that! :o) And what I write in this journal is me! Yes, I do have health issues. And, in my eyes, that's not my fault! I see it as a gift from God, and I except them all! :o) And I know that He is helping me through them, and I've put my problems in His hands! :o) And, what I do, say, feel,react, how I live....thats all between me and God, and no one else! :o) Thats me! Do you still like me? I wouldn't see what would change anything at all...because I'm no different then I have been in years! lol :o) I'm just plain ole' Lisa. :o) Thats it. That simply has a few defects (illnesses). :o)
I feel the need to talk about my little defects, because I feel that I just might reach out to someone out there and help them. :o) And I hope I do! :o) Thats why I do post things that I have, little bit of information, on here hoping that it will help someone. :o) But, I do want to also say one thing, I don't want anyone to ever think that I'm being pushy on anything that I do post. I know I don't like that, and I want to avoid that. For instance, like my beliefs....I believe my way, and I don't want to be at all pushy to anyone. You can catch more with hunney then viniger.
I need to get off of here...it's 8:00! I should be able to call a doctor now! :o) Thank you all so very much for all of your helpfull emails and comments! God does bless us all! :o)

Good to hear you're feeling much better, yes many herbal recipes are useful.
Do I still like you? NO, I never really liked you...well, maybe at first, but then I began to LOVE you, I feel very close to you, maybe it's beacause we both live in chronic pain, severe pain, or maybe just because you're such a sweet soul.
Hugs, Sugar

Quite happy to hear you're better. A thought - are you taking sufficient vitamin C (citrus fruits &c)? Let us hear about the outcome of the dr's appointment.

Happy to hear that you are feeling better, Lisa..  :)

It is far better to be yourself.. always.  If people don't like who you are are either here or in the real world, they can hit the red x in both places, and exit stage left! :)

Lisa, I've found over the years that many herbs and natural remedies work miracles almost.  My son had his gallbladder removed when he was 17.  It stopped functioning.  Even after it was removed, he was continually nauseous and could eat nothing but cracker, Cup of Soup and bland noodles.  I took him to a laser accupuncturist.  Within 3 months, he was eating me out of house and home again.  This was after 3 different specialists said it was all in his mind.  I just saw your entry above.  Whoo hoo!  HUGS  Chris

I would like to know how to make lip balms.  I think it would be so much fun.
I'm going to keep reading to find out what else happens.  I'm behind on my alerts again.
