(The only "good" drug user of that generation since you know our past)<br /><br />She has a natural remedy for everything. She knows how to change your diet when you have certain symptoms. She does not believe in sudden onset vaccinations and researches everything. <br /><br />She also seems to have good sense when it comes to considering symptoms as they could relate to serious disease vs. a virus. <br /><br />She does like I do. I research my symptoms and go into my Dr. with a list of what I think might be going on.<br /><br />I call her before I call my Dr. and have for 5 year years. In fact, my kids have only been to the Dr. for well child check ups. Even my "preemie" who I was literally promised by the NICU would have problems. <br /><br />I figured I would leave you with my positive non medical related stories, because the medical horror stories would keep me here, like for a sleepover comment session.Midnitefyrflyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12407438351469606532noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15322620.post-20411743196281461352009-12-09T01:27:43.999+00:002009-12-09T01:27:43.999+00:00Since I'm not the one answering the phone, it&...Since I'm not the one answering the phone, it's pretty funny to me.
