Subject: RE: BS: Sorcha Sick From: Stilly River Sage Date: 25 Nov 03 - 10:35 PM Staph is very bad. You follow your doctor's orders and use tons of common sense. When in doubt if something feels really bad, go to the hospital. Seriously. Take extra care. SRS |
Subject: RE: BS: Sorcha Sick From: Mudlark Date: 25 Nov 03 - 10:47 PM Please follow all above good advice, then cover yourself in corgis and sleep out infection. And get better soon. |
Subject: RE: BS: Sorcha Sick From: Rapparee Date: 25 Nov 03 - 10:52 PM Sick is expressly forbidden. Since everything that is not expressly forbidden is mandatory, you are not sick. If you think you are sick, water, drugs, rest, corgis, and someone else's cooking are the best cures. And doctors. GOOD doctors. And did I mention rest? |

Subject: RE: BS: Sorcha Sick From: Little Hawk Date: 26 Nov 03 - 01:52 AM Honey, onions, and lemon mix works great too. Chop up the onions small. The germs don't like it. - LH |
Subject: RE: BS: Sorcha Sick From: Seamus Kennedy Date: 26 Nov 03 - 02:21 AM Half cup of boiling water, 3 cloves, half stick cinnamon, 1 tsp lemon juice, 1 tsp honey, 2 oz Irish whiskey. Mix in a mug. Drink one of these every 10 minutes until you are better. Get well soon. Seamus |
Subject: RE: BS: Sorcha Sick From: Big Mick Date: 26 Nov 03 - 02:57 AM Sorcha, pay no mind to that lad from the North. Use 4 oz. of John Jamesons very finest Irish Whiskey, and don't wait 10 minutes. When it is drained, get another. I am not sure if it cures anything, but in about 20 minutes you won't give a shit. All the best, Mick |
Subject: RE: BS: Sorcha Sick From: Hrothgar Date: 26 Nov 03 - 04:17 AM Take all the above remedies, Sorcha. They will probably make flu/staph seem like mere details. Take care of yourself, and get well soon. |
Subject: RE: BS: Sorcha Sick From: Steve Parkes Date: 26 Nov 03 - 04:21 AM Bad luck, Sorcha. Don't cancel Thanksgiving, postpone it till you're better -- then you'll have more to be thankful for. Steve |
Subject: RE: BS: Sorcha Sick From: Little Robyn Date: 26 Nov 03 - 05:50 AM If the staph is in the throat, gargling with salty water (warm) is good too. Lots of cheer germs from down under. Robyn |

Subject: RE: BS: Sorcha Sick From: John MacKenzie Date: 26 Nov 03 - 06:54 AM All of the above Sorcha, I have a fondness for the honey and lemon route myself, but drink the WHISKY from a separate glass. Hope you get to feeling much better very soon. Love Giok |
Subject: RE: BS: Sorcha Sick From: McGrath of Harlow Date: 26 Nov 03 - 07:14 AM Well, if Sorcha's sensible she won't be reading all this good advice until she's a bit better. And if you are reading it, be off to bed - with a hot-water bottle and a Walkman and some good tapes, and get your head down for a snooze any time you feel like it. And as soon as you feel a bit better - DON'T LET ON. Make the most of the rest. Incidentally, talking books can be as good as music, or even better, when you're under the weather. Be better for Christmas, and combine that with Thanksgiving this year. You could do it on Boxing Day... As for InOBU's PS If I weren't a Quake, I say throw a drop of poteen in as well... -- in my experience Quakers seem to have a sensibly appreciative attitude towards drink, seeing it as one of God's most welcome gifts. Almost as much so as Catholics and Jews. |

Subject: RE: BS: Sorcha Sick From: wysiwyg Date: 26 Nov 03 - 11:39 AM I've heard about an extremely virulent flu in CO. I hope with all my heart she doesn't have that one, and that her doctor and husband are taking it much more seriously than she is. Please, pray HARD. ~S~ |

Subject: RE: BS: Sorcha Sick From: Deda Date: 26 Nov 03 - 12:12 PM Can't believe no one's mentioned GARLIC, mother nature's own antibiotic. You don't have to chew it, you can take it in (relatively) odor-free pills. With all the whiskey you're ordered to consume, though, you might be able to chow down cheerfully on some raw cloves. I have a couple of friends here in Boulder whose bouts with flu have lasted two full weeks of serious, with a long, gradual, trailing-off tail end after that. Stay warm. Read this thread, it will cheer you up and make you smile. Of course if you don't read this and immediately forward it to everyone you know, the mortgage company will foreclose on your first-born child and locusts will consume your mail, your cats will turn into goats and your chimney will collapse into your sink. So you better get well asap. |
