Sorry you are sick!!! Hope you get well soon!

My DH has had a bad bout of this cold/flu stuff that's been going around. Those doctors had put him on so many different things.....he had to go to the doctor 3 times!!! This is a man who NEVER goes to the doctor!

Anyway, one of the things the doctor told him (which, who would have thought) is to eat yogurt. There was a specific bacteria he said to look for, but I think most yogurt has it in it. Anyway, he said that most people don't realize it, but a lot of colds, etc are caused by "unhappy stomaches". Since my DH hates the thought of eating yogurt, the doctor said that there is a supplement out there that is this good bacteria.

Saline nose spray is a must! If you don't want to mix your own and sniff it, just go by some cheap ol saline spray at the store. It works!

Got any moonshine?? My grandfather swears by that stuff.....yes, there is still some of it out there! But, Jack Daniels would work just fine. Mix you a hot toddie (lemon, honey, whiskey)...those combined really work. I think it is disgusting, but hey.....

REST!!! You really need to rest......sleep if you can......the doctor couldn't stress that enough!
