{{{{{Bars}}}}}}}  have you tried Zicam?  Ronnie and I were both getting sick on Friday last week. I bought a box of the Zicam cinnamon chews and we both starting using them.  They really worked for us.  A couple of the docs I work with use them too... 

I can relate to your worries with Sarah... I had similar issues with my son when he was in his late teens.  It's frightening to think of all the crazy stuff that kids get into.  I'll keep all of you in my prayers!

Hope you feel better soon!  alice

I'll try the Zicam, but I'm pretty far gone and not sure that it will help... That said, I'm willing to give just about anything a try.

Re: Sarah... She's okay and not going towards anything crazy... as a matter of a fact, in this part of the country, it's probably mainstream, but it's not something I'm comfortable with.

Thanks for the prayers,

I doubt that I gave it to you... maybe we both caught it there... I was feeling fine until very late Saturday night early Sunday... It's just been getting steadily worse since then. Thank goodness I don't have to hold a support group meeting this week, 'cause I'm a real mess!

Hope you feel better soon.

LOL Barb... I was feeling good until Monday... then the sky fell in!!!  I tried the Zicam, but i think i was already too far gone.  everything seems to be moving into my chest today, which i hate!!! I always have a really hard time getting things off my chest.   The good news is that i don't feel well enough to eat the sour dough pretzels i love so much!!!

Too funny! I haven't had a Bullseye since Saturday!

Amazing what our bodies will do to help us break an addiction... LOL

I hope you feel better soon my friend.

See you next week,

(((((((((((((Barb)))))))))))))

Barb, The reason we have children is to stimulate our life. Consider yourself stimulated..... I agree with others ....she may be a-..float a bit but kids generally return to their upbringing. I have always be Christian but have looked into other views in my youth.  Just be a constant in her life.
I hope you can shake the cold ..soooo many people have them right now. Barb....sounds like you are riding the storm.
I hope things get to a smoother pace for you very soon.

Hi Barbara,
I'm relatively new around here, but I read all the wonderful things you say to everyone and how supportive you are. Being sick and lack of sleep makes everything seem worse. As kind as you are to everyone on this message board and the groups you organize, I know good things will come your way.  Get pleanty of rest so you can cope with the stress, and I hope the dust will settle soon.
Warm Hugs,
Vini
