First, happy Anniversary!

Second, when my mother had pneumonia, she followed a number of recopies left to her from her mother to fight the illness naturally. Here are a few...

1.Turmeric milk. (Sold at Walmart and nutrition stores)

2. Ginger Tea

3. Herbal tea(green tea)

4. Honey and lime tea.

5. Camphor and Turpentine oil (check with doctor for any allergies) Rub oil on chest; its more powerful than Vick's vapor Rub! (sold at Walmart and other locations)

6. fresh fruit juice such as orange juice, fruit cocktail smoothies, etc.

7. Hot Toddies. (Hot tea with honey, lemon, and rum)

Now, a number of other things to help your husband fight pneumonia...

1. use a humidifier while he sleeps.

2. Take hot showers (the steam helps clear the sinuses)

3. Get a car seat warmer. ($20- $40) at Walmart. This will help keep him warm while traveling.

4. Run a dry blanket through the dryer before bed; time it so it is done when you are ready to retire for the night. It will be warm the instant you put it over him and his body heat will keep it warm all night long. Note: Keep a sheet between him and the warmed blanket so it will not be too warm.

I hope this information helps you and we will continue to pray for you and your husband.

Be strong and God Bless.

Eric.
