Pat - do you have something in your bag to boost your immune system? A few days after getting home from St. Maarten I came down with the WORST flu/virus I have had in years. It flattened me and I hadn't been sick all winter. It started as a head cold and then became a whole body issue with dizziness, lethargy and body aches. Sleep seemed to be the only thing that cured it. Sleep and Oregano Oil. Five drops into one inch of water and slug it down like a shooter. Refill one inch of water and repeat just to get rid of the taste. It's strong but it's a powerful antioxidant for the whole body and it does a number of other wonderful things too. At one of the TV stations I worked in 30 people used the same computers and phones so watching a cold/flu make it's way through the newsroom was like watching a tsunami. Everyone always got sick except for 3 people. It was always the same three people. I asked what their secret was and they showed me their oregano oil. If you're willing to try it, is there a health food store on the island? Not sure if Maho Pharmacy has it - might be worth a try.

Oregano Oil - organic is best if you can get it. Five drops into one inch of water, do not take it on it's own. When you feel a cold come on or if you're in the grips of one it will either make it go away or lessen the symptoms. It will also dry you up. Use it 4-5 times a day.

You can't get sick...you're on holiday!!!!!
