RE: Common cold
your Granny mine would be picking a switch.........and my Grandpa would be fixing a hot toddy and when Grandma wasnt looking slipping me a sip of white lighting now that could knock the sin right outa ya....I adored my Granpa...loved my Grandma but adored my Grandpa

;)Workmans comp is not a road you want to travel alone.You need a good lawyer,a great family and good friends to lean on.If you make it thru without losing everything you have worked for all your life,you have come out ahead of the game.....Smile

RE: Common cold
My grandma always said chicken noodle soup and sleep. I still eat soup when I'm sick. Drink lots of fluids, try hot showers and rest. Feel better soon!
If it's in your head, blow and if it's in your chest, cough!

RE: Common cold
In my family we were always given home made chicken soup and before bedtime the hot toddy. Drink lots of fluids and keep yourself hydrated. Sure hope you get to feeling better soon.

Chicken soup, oranges and apples, water

Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don’t matter and those who matter don’t mind.
