Time to heal from the flu and how licorice helped...

Image
I knew I should have gotten the flu vaccine.  Every year I have been lucky enough to escape it but it got me good this year.  How do I know for sure it is the flu, well it all started with spending six hours in the emergency room with my son Matthew.  We thought he had food poisoning but it turned out that he tested positive for influenza!  The very next day, my symptoms started to appear.  I got the chills, fever, headache, nausea and overall exhausted feeling.  Today is day three for me and I really do believe that what really has helped me to heal is the following: *1000 mg. of vitamin c daily; *Thyme essential oil bath & thyme cream; *Motrin & *Lots of fluids & rest & * Licorice !

Bobbi Nelson, So Much More Than Just Willie's Sister

Bobbie Nelson has been a big part of her brother's band since the early 70's when Willie took her to New York City to help him with the records he was making.  Willie and Bobbie have remained very close since they were little.  Their parents married very young and the marriage didn't last.  They were raised by their music loving grandparents in the little town of Abbott, Texas. They would compose gospel music after supper and insist the children get involved too.  Bobbi learned how to read and play music by her grandmother at the age of 6.  When Bobbie was 9 and Willie was 6 their grandfather died and their grandmother worked in the fields.  Bobbi tours with Willie's band and she plays a a 7-foot Steinway.  She is amazing and beautiful. I know it isn't good to go through life having regrets...but I do have a regret when it comes to Bobbie.  Years back on a very rainy night after a Willie Nelson Concert at the Guild Hall on Lo...
