& WG

[Guest guest]

I found the sites today you sent thank you. I thought this was odd when I read it. I have the bleeding nose, which it mentions but I also had the problem with the salivary gland and almost died in 1995. Due to the infection that set in. They ended up taking my submandibular gland.
