Hello,
A friend sent me your site tonight and I'm going through it. I want to mention something that happened to my grandson, many other children, as well as John Travolta's son that people don't know about. I'm hoping you will post this information on your website. Maybe, we can help save the lives of many children. There is a disease called Kawasaki Syndrome that if not diagnosed early enough, can kill or cause rheumatic heart disease, Juvenile Rheumatoid Arthritis and other disabilities. It is somewhat preventable. It has come to our attention (my families and mine) that the disease is, at least in one form, directly related to shampooing carpeting around children. I also heard John Travolta mention that fact just last week on The Larry King Show. I don't know if they have excerpts from the show or not but Mr. King's website is cnn.com/larryking. No one knows why some children are effected and not others but I can say from our personal experience, my grandson had a cold when his rug was shampooed, possibly making it harder for him to fight off the chemicals from the rug that attacked his immune system. Kawasaki Syndrome is basically an overload of the immune system. It comes on very suddenly and very violently. This disease was most known in Japan and is now becoming much too common in the United States. My grandson was lucky in that although he is left with JRA and on medication over a year and a half later, he does have great medical care and we have hope he will grow out of it. But I do know of children who are left with severe heart damage. I ask you to please consider posting this disease information somewhere on your site with a warning about the simple act of shampooing a rug around children under age 10. Infants are most susceptible. My grandson was eight years old when he got it. It's best to have children out of the house for at least three days after cleaning carpets or out of the room where the carpet was cleaned, air out the rooms as well, and if a child has a cold or any other illness, wait for the child to be well before even thinking of shampooing. If you have any further questions, feel free to write me back. Thank you for your time and attention and for a terrific site. More information below.

These sites make mention of rug shampooing. The second site mentions that Kawasaki is the leading cause of acquired heart disease in children in the United States today so you can see this is a rising problem.

I have found that grapefruit seed extract is keeping candida

Par D' arco... black walnut herb and garlic are helpful as well.
I take roses apart when they are fully open and then dry them in borax and white cornmeal to then reconstruct them. They stay for a very very long time and loose very little of their colors.
When boiling water for pasta, spray the surface with cooking spray (or

Did you know clutter affects your energy in your life and
in your home?
The more clutter you have, the more "negative" energy you
are surrounding yourself with.
YOU are not your "things"

Use a potato masher to mix frozen concentrate and water for your juice.
If you have stored a red sauce based item in Tupperware and cannot
remove the stain, let it sit in the windowsill and the sun will bleach
out the red.
This is a simple way to making cutting chicken easier. I have always
found that if you cut the chicken while it is still slightly frozen
(not rock hard) with a good sharp knife, it is much easier to manage
and you can even cut it into very thin slices if that is what you
want.
To peel hard-boiled eggs easily and very quickly: After boiling, pour
off the hot water, shake pan back and forth to crack the shells.
Cover eggs in cold water and let set for a couple of minutes. Leave
water and eggs in pan and peel, using water to rinse away excess
shells. Works perfectly every time.

QUOTES and NICE THOUGHTS!
Think of all the beauty still left around you and be happy.
- Anne Frank
Lets all go out and make a difference!
A smile is a simple, but wonderful gift which we can bestow so easily.
"You purchase pain with all that joy can give, and die of nothing but a rage to live." - Alexander Pope
And the end of all our searching shall be to return to the place where we started and know it for the first time.
- T.S. Eliot
A friend is never chosen. A secret sympathy, the attraction of a thousand nameless quailities, a charm in the expression of the countenance, even in voice or manner, a similarity of circumstances------these are the things that begin attachment. (Anna Barbauld)
All like the purchase,
few the price will pay;
And this makes friends
such miracles today. (Edward Young)
Once again the promise has been kept. Once more we have been given the gift of a new day in which to help others. But, we all have to bear in mind, that as we go out each day seeking to help, there are those out there seeking to hinder and destroy what good has been accomplished. I pray that these people come to see the destruction they cause and seek to repair, heal and make amends. All we can do is keep fighting the ignorance, prejudice, greed, lust, the list is long. I pray we all fight with words and not violence. Let us all go out seeking to make a difference today and each day, and remember Learn from the challenges as well as the blessings. Reach out and touch the heart of a hurting one. I love you all and I love those you love. Aerie
It is easier to stay out than get out.
