It has been a very busy weekend, and I will be back tomorrow with more on that, but for now the focus is on the most important thing we did: healing.
Asher finally rid himself of his fever, although a cough still lingers. And Bella has managed to rid herself of two styes. They started on Friday morning in one eye, and quickly spread to the other. She was miserable and feverish, and could hardly see. I was very hesitant to put her on antibiotics right away, so decided to see what we could do at home. And it worked beautifully. Today there is only minimal swelling in one eye, and no redness, pain or fever. For those of you who would like to know what we did (and also so I will remember this for next time) here was her regime:
1. Lots and lots of water.
2. Hot parsley compresses every two-three hours for fifteen minutes (a cloth dipped in parsley "tea" and kept warm).
3. Homeopathic remedy Hepar Sulph Calc (3 tablets at 30X, 4x/ day).
4. Rosehips and echinacea 2x/ day.
Styes, especially horrible angry ones like hers were, usually take a minimum of a week to clear, even with antibiotics. I don't know which part of our regime worked, or if it was a combination, but the healing was amazing. I wish I knew how to treat more things like this.
Keep well, and see you tomorrow.
