As most of you know I've been sick for about a month and a half with bronchitis, which is now just a horrible cough. Yesterday I dislocated a rib while having one of my cough attacks.  The chiro was able to put it back, but basically my life stinks right now. So if y'all can think some good thoughts for me I'd appreciate it. I think I need a snuggle and a scent mark.....  |

Kathy, go the meerkat crew and ask Lola to help you with some reiki. She does that for lots of people and animals. I will keep sending healing thoughts your way. |

Poor baby! I hate that you are having such a rough time. Perhaps if you image your ribs healing and your cough dissapearing ..... And keep telling yourslef "this too shall pass". Sending you a huge cuddle pile  and scads of groomings. I will light a candle for you. |

Yo Kathy I had the horrible dry cough for 3 weeks after the flu and the only thing that got me through it was lots of tea with honey (well I added some Jameson whiskey to it at night, medicinal purposes only of course). I use White Tea with orange and Green Tea with Jasmine, Earl Grey, hot with lemon and honey in the morning. Just keep pouring it down, sip it all day if you can. And get lots of rest 9 hours a night would be great 8 hours minimum. Take care Pronker |

I have a brother who used whiskey one time for a cold and it sure knock it, so it just may knock whatever you have. It is a good thing for medicinal purposes. Hey maybe some of Pronker's Puff Adder Punch might do the trick! Eruth Loyalkat Sophie |

Oh Kathy!!
ok... sometimes i snuggle in my little burrow and when the burrow dust settles on me in sleep I dream I have the power to scent mark..... then I awake and ddddss my entire burrow and everything is better..... In my corner where the I have the picture of our fearless Flower..... I send you my secret scent marks!
I have the same thing..... I use to get so sick, I would be sick for weeks.... thought i was not ever gonna get better..... I have taken the 7 day prednisone pack and it would always help to give me that boost I needed to my immune system so the antibiotics could do their job and I would get better. As u know this Fibro is also a kick to the immune system and it takes alittle longer and we need alittle help ...... I know how it feels when you think it jiust has gone on toooo long and it feels as if it isn't going away.
I have a tea recipe that is really great that a woman from Argentina shared with me...... take a sprig of rosemary and a slice of lemon and a few shavings of ginger and put it all in a cup. Cover with boiling water...... leave the ingredients in the cup..... add honey to tast...... it is a veary very healing tea and it taste good too...... It is a good s;ubstitute for whiskey.
Scorpion Toddies your way.....
ddddss.....From My Secret Burrow!
Hugs and Hip slams with cuddles to boot!
Much Love !!!!

Thanks everyone! Rib is feeling better. Still can't lift my arm over my head, but I can deal with it. I look a little ridiculous though, holding onto my side like crazy when I have to cough, LOL! Deb, you're so right--fibro makes everything worse! I'm going to the store today to get some tea. I'm almost out of vicodin. We'll see how it goes from there.  |
