Guest guest Posted September 23, 2000 Report Share Posted September 23, 2000 Hello Karma, I ordered that book too and will enjoy the reading. The examples you've written from the book do bring back memories of my Aunt . Stray cats would end up at her backdoor and she used " castor oil " on their wounds (cat fights). All her strays healed and LOVED her to pieces. Ah, reminds me of my childhood. I bet your husband loves you to pieces for " entertaining " him. I imagine his life with you is never a dull moment and he's happy as ever because has a wife is so " creative " and " inventive " and " inspirational " . Be glad you are the wonderful lady that you are. I bet he is too. Thanks for sharing with us. Tig > Thank you , > I just finished reading " The Oil that Heals " it is about Castor Oil. One of the examples in the book talked about a man who had a severely infected finger. He had gotten something lodged between the nail and skin and it has swollen up and was pussing and very tender. He was going to the Dr. to get it lanced the next day. His wife wrapped it in a caster oil cloth and bandaged it over night. The next day the swelling was completely gone and he was easily able to take the debris out of his nail. > > Another story was of a little squirrel. A woman had nursed a little squirrel from a baby. Then one day her pet ferret got into the squirrels cage and bite the squirrel to within an inch of it's life. The vet said the squirrel was a goner, but the woman wasn't willing to give up on the cold little almost lifeless body. She wrapped the entire squirrel body in a castor oil soaked cloth and put a heat pad on it. The next day the squirrel was up and running around. She said it was a true miracle. > > My husband is once again laughing at me. He swears that I am his built in entertainment. This is because I am such an extremist. Whatever I am doing, it seems to cure everything! He says, " What! all my problems can't be solved by just deep breathing breathing, then Puhhhh!, No, wait, it is by drinking distilled water, on, no... wait, everything will be fixed if I will just remember to oil swish every morning, or is it by drinking vinegar and honey, no... that was last month. This month it is putting castor oil on everything and ....don't forget to make sure my colon is clean and I am parasite free! He of course is kidding, but that is the story of my life! I am always searching for ways to improve life as I know it, then I want to share it with everyone!! > ~Karma > karma@l... > http://loaves-n-fishes.com > My castor oil observations > > > > > My Groups | moreoxygen Main Page | Start a new group! > > > Hi all, > > As some of you might know from my sore throat post, I've been battling a very > stubborn illness this week.
