Thanks for the information, especially re: the pink eye relief. I had no idea it was out there. Beats waiting forever to get a doctor’s appointment as well. Lice- haven’t been there yet, but I am sure I’ll see it sooner or later!

I am going through all of this now. With an asthmatic daughter, I have to use medicine. She needs rescue medicine or she will die. End of story. However, there is a way to meet in the middle. Strengthen her immunity with alternatives. Thanks for this post.

I’ve also heard that a clove of garlic set in the ear can ease the earache.

My kids are thrilled that they get bottled water in their lunches instead of Capri Suns. It cracks me up that they think it’s a special treat. (Of course, I wash the bottles and reuse.)

I completely agree that our diets cause so many health issues! Our home has been completely artificial substance/chemical free for years! We only consume foods that are 100% natural and mostly organic. It is vital to put quality foods in our bodies if we want to stay healthy!

Our school has a new nutrition plan in place. Except it fails to disallow sugary treats that parents bring in for parties and birthdays! One of my daughters had 3 class parties in the first week of school! Oh, and they “encourage every child to participate in the school meal programs”. Heh. My kids take cold lunch four days a week. I’m not letting them eat prepared, frozen, chemical laden foods everyday! Ick.

Interestingly enough, I was just having this conversation at our screening of Two Angry Moms (about eating whole foods and getting junk food out of schools) and one of the family farm collaboratives at the farmer’s market mentioned that the increase in MRSA staph infections, etc. has a corollary with all the chem cuisine and processing in our nation’s food supply…in other words, when we were eating natural, whole foods vs. ‘tastes like real…’ whatever the immune system worked properly and now it’s all fouled up. He also mentioned the amped up doses of antibiotics delivered too loosely and kids’ inability to fight bacterial maladies in the same way due to immunity to certain strains…Fascinating that the trickle down impact of FrankenFood for profit has hit our very core well being…

Sorry to hear about the pink eye, too…bleh. No fun. (never heard that breastmilk bit either, I learn something new on ECP everyday!—But like you said, it’s not as if that’s ‘handy’ once you’re out of that phase!)
