The greatest wealth is health.

…I did not mean to leave you hanging…I really didn’t
…The past six days were a bit very hard…high fever…body aches…no energy…
…the diagnosis: very bad bronchitis…asthma (never had it before)…trying to rest
…Still very weak…feeling about 95 1/2 years old…trying to get back on top of this…
…It is one of those times…where no matter how old you are…you miss your mom…:/
…Mind over matter…I keep telling myself…this time, matter won…mind is a bit of a mush right now…
….Taking my medicine, like a good girl…trying to rest…should be back on top soon 🙂
…Any suggestions to speed the recovery process, dear friend? I could use some 😉

Anyes you may want to drink hot water, lemon and honey, also run hot water in your sink, lean over the sink, wrap a towel over your head and sink, this should help bring up some of the junk. I understand you wanting your Mom, nobody helps like a mom can. get plenty of rest…..I always like chicken noodle soup. in my house it seems to be the cure for all. hope you feel much better soon.

oh, I hope you feel better soon Anyes, that’s why i don’t see your poem. My suggestion is Gargle with sea salt 2-3 times per day and add fresh squeeze with water for a drink. may make you feel good in a few days. Yes I like to think of my mother when I get sick still she will pan fried pork with garlic and black pepper serve with boiled jasmine rice, or other kind of boiled rice with condiments. When I grew up and get sick my body feel like a spicy soup like Tom yum soup with mushrooms. Sour fruits eat more fresh pineapple dip with salt. Get well tomorrow Anyes

Sorry you are so sick. Try taking super hot showers w/ doors closed, steam will help your lungs. Also prednisone can help strengthen your lungs too. Hope you get lots of rest and start feeling better soon!

and oh yes…whenever I talk about vaporub….people tell me to put it on the soles of my feet when I’m in bed…apparently that is very healing. I haven’t had occasion to try it yet…but next time I need to I’m going to. It can’t hurt, right? xoxo

No words of wisdom to speed the healing my friend….it takes its own time and all you can do is rest and be patient. Sleep, take and do whatever the doctor has told you to do and allow your body to heal. Nothing can rush the process. I’m glad that you have taken the time away from blogging to do just that. I wish you a recovery that is full and that it happens when it is ready. And yes, our health is the best wealth there is. Sending good ju ju and healing thoughts. And oh how I agree…when we feel that badly — it is our mother was crave. Put some Vicks’ vaporub on your chest…put some in a vaporizer if you have one….and I’ll sing “soft kitty” to you from here. xoxoxox
