This group has been running for about six months now and continues to be thought-provoking and very congenial, and no trouble at all to manage. It pretty well runs itself.

Normally she would have grabbed the Advil/Tylenol and maybe the Rebaxacol?, but I convinced her to let me apply some DMSO (75% concentration) on her sore back. She was very skeptical but I have had pretty great results using it on a severely sprained ankle and on a deep deep laceration on my hand.
