Dehydrating ~ and other tidbits




 I dehydrated more sage and rosemary, and started a sage tincture.


Daughter K did a door dash for her sister.  We sent a lawn chair (fresh air and sunshine), a box of tissues, immune boost vitamins, and a bottle of tea tree oil.  She still has a bad cough and congestion. 

She did a steam inhalation with eucalyptus oil the other day.

I did a check-in with Mom.  I took her a piece of breakfast frittata, some bandages and wound tape.  Her legs are so swollen from water retention (they even upped her meds) that her legs are leaking.  I'm very concerned about it, and may see if her insurance will cover an aide (to put her compression stockings on) and/or for her wound supplies.

Kristina...Please email me at vickimiller63@gmail.com

I have gone through the same kind of thing with my legs that your Mom is going through and I may have some information that could help.
