I think you meant incapacitated but I read it as decapitated. If you
did mean decapitated, that's one REALLY nasty bug you have there.

He is a very good boy. Did he also retrieve your head after the flu
induced decapitation? ;-)

It's really hard to get things right when you don't have a bwain.

Sorry to hear you and DH are sick. I would suggest taking as much Vitamin C
as you can tolerate, as it is a "healing factor" that dogs and other
animals can produce in large quantities for themselves, especially in times
of stress, while humans, simians, and Guinea pigs lack the gene that
enables the body to make it. There has not been too much research on this
lately, because big drug companies would rather sell expensive (and often
dangerous) designer medications to make huge profits, while Ascorbic acid
is cheap and totally non-toxic. I suggest a book called "The Healing
Factor: Vitamin C Against Disease", by Irwin Stone, with foreword by Dr.
Linus Pauling. Meanwhile, maybe do some research on-line.

I'm happy to hear Mr. Snappy-Grabby is being such a help during your time
of distress. He is truly a wonder dog. I hope y'all get well soon.

I might, but i have none in the house, and I'm not driving 10 miles to get
some until I feel better.

You hope.

About 85 percent of the vitamin C consumed in the US was, by
2006, manufactured in China. According to the WSJ, "Today, China
is the OPEC of vitamin C."

I hope their vitamin C manufacturing standards and enforcement of
same are better than their wheat gluten standards.

Ha! I was thinking the same thing. I know when I'm sick with flu
or a cold, I'd love to have someone decapitate me.

Hope you're feeling better soon.

considering population control is a problem over there, perhaps there is
method in their madness?

I found a rediculously cheap, well made, super comfortable fleecy shirt
that I would not have purchased, but I can't even buy the material for
double it's cost. It's giving me a lot of comfort right now. I'm thanking
some chinaperson in a sweatshop for it, as I type

In the large doses advocated in that book and others like it, vitamin C
has a weak antihistamine effect. It's also tough on the GI tract. When
I'm all goobered up with a cold I'd just as soon take a dose of an
really effective antihistamine and skip the diarrhea and heartburn. YMMV.
