Well, here we are, the end of January 2008 already! The month has gone fast! I'm pleased to report our family's health issues are maintaining. Our daughter celebrated her 6th birthday! It was wonderful to watch her sweet face as she opened her gifts and ate her cake.
Our son is doing well with his nerve blocks though the injection makes him nauseas. They give him another injection for that and that one makes him sleep for nearly 12 hours. The pain levels are dropping though and that is a good start. Praying this will continue to work.
I'm consistently fighting sinus infections and after a particularly annoying bout asked my pharmacist what she might recommend. She recommended the "NetiPot". I dutifully purchased one thinking all the supplies were in the package. Of course, as often is the way with these things all I had purchased was the solution to add to the water and neti pot. I dutifully borrowed my sweet young daughters teapot and turned it into a neti pot until my dear husband could get to town to purchase a bottle for said solution. Oh, did I mention it works? Wow! What a concept. It may not look to lady like to be squirting solution up one nostril and out the other, but let me tell you, if you have ever suffered from sinus congestion this is a great way to clear it out! According to the package you should use it twice per day. I'm thinking daily for life as I have particularly stubborn sinus' thanks to hereditary. Oh well, the relief is well worth the time spent!!
