Fighting Back

There are all sort of bugs that have been going around here on the campus. A couple of weeks ago Ruth came down with a really bad cold and now Titus is coughing like crazy. I have felt something coming on for a little while. I don't usually get caught up with trying the latest things out there for colds. I never take cold medicine as it makes my heart race. I have however become a strong believer in taking Ester C. I just recently heard of several people who claim that Oil of Oregano zaps a cold fast. So for the last week I have been taking both of them several times a day. I don't know if I am convinced that they are working but I do know my cold has not developed like Titus'. It takes a strong person to stick with the Oil of Oregano. You put these drops under your tongue and each time I do it I shiver afterwards as it leaves the worst taste in your mouth. (It makes my feel like I just drank "Lemon Pledge Furniture Polish". Gross!) But since I wanted to give it an honest try I am sticking with it a couple times a day for another week to see it I can kick this thing. The next time you feel yourself getting a cold you can give it a try and see if it helps. If nothing else it will be an experience you will remember for a LONG TIME.

Pray For Our Little Sickie

For those of your who have been reading my posts you will already know how Ruth has been battling with Strep Throat. Yesterday her throat started with that painful soreness again. We took her to the doctor this afternoon and from all indications it looks like the strep throat is back. This is the third time in six weeks Ruth is being treated for this. Pleas PRAY that this next treatment will kick the strep throat once and for all. Thanks!

As you know from a post a couple of weeks ago Ruth came down with strep throat. She finished up her medicine for that on Saturday and by Monday was feeling the same as before with a terribly sore throat. I took her to the doctor and sure enough the strep throat was back. She is now on a stronger medicine that will hopefully help fight the strep throat. However, she has also come down with a bad head and chest cold. She is feeling like she has no energy and has it takes all her strength to make it into work and then she is exhausted when she comes home. Please be praying for her. THANKS!
