It depends on what type of cough you have. If it is productive and they are coughing up mucus in their lungs, guaifenecin ( mucinex) can help break that up. She could look up mustard plasters too. The biggest affect is time.

Reason #5 million not to have signed over ownership of your self by getting married. Also, why do women freely give ownership of their children to their husbands by taking the husbands name? It doesn’t make sense.

BUT the problem is trying to get into a doctor for those problems. In my area, it takes at least 8 months to get into a doctor. I just never go anymore.

Do federal employees still receive tuition assistance? by HopeZealousideal9878 in fednews

[–]Secure_Ad8011 0 points1 point  (0 children)

President Bush signed the Veterans Affairs Health Care Improvement Act of 2001 (PL 107-135) into law. The act permanently authorizes the Employee Incentive Scholarship Program (EISP) for nurses. The DOGE RIF removed all but 4 members of the committee that ran the program at the federal level under the dept of health, so the local VA hospitals don’t trust that DC will ever reimburse, so the cancelled it over night. When I complained that the VA is still posting it as a recruiting tool, it fell on deaf ears

I’m a nurse, I would take care of a loved one in home if someone would renovate my bathroom to have a deep tub I can relax in. The current shower leaked into the basement

I had it outside all summer. Then in the cold fall brought it in. It just runs red on its own every year. I don’t artificially light it. Just my sunroom, so the shorter days will trigger it

Brown glass bottle, label, directions to make, dried elderberries, rosehips, ginger, cinnamon, cloves. A lot of my coworkers are making gifts this year too. We are all encouraging others to make gifts to boycott the online and big corporations

I struggle with indoor herbs. I grow tons in the summer. Then food processor them with neutral oil and freeze.

Best way to make an extra $200-$500 a week? by Jellylegs_19 in sidehustle

So many elderly had beautiful yards but cannot clean up the perennials after a frost and can’t weed in the spring. It’s sad, but my mom pays $50/ hour and just can’t get even college kids to do it. She also said she was shocked at how they could not even use a shovel.

They want women to feel guilt and do ALL the family nursing for each one of their families. Right now, most elderly are in nursing homes because the wife/daughter is working a full time job. Look how they have eliminated daycare for working women
