Cranberry juice for bacterial vaginosis

I have a feeling that i’m getting a bout of recurring bacterial vaginosis again. I have some cranberry juice inside the fridge and just made half a cup. It’ll take care of the problem but not instantaneous though. Hope the itch will subside by morning. It usually does.
It works for me. I hate medication and […]

How i got Gordon to take his bitter medicine

Yes, it was downright horrijible…. BLEKKKKK!!! Freaking bitter. Gordon took one sip of it and, “Mm-mai!!!!” That’s it. DOnt ever go near him with the spoon,. He’s pushed away hand many times and all the medicine fell onto his shirt, and mine too. I tried clamping him down and force-feeding him. Same, same, same. I […]

Malcolm is a picky eater

Malcolm is a really picky eater. He will only eat a few spoonfuls of whatever that i give him. Thereafter, he’ll spit everything out. He’s really skinny and i’m at a lost as to what else to feed him. He loves my porridge, just that he wont eat much. I have to keep feeding him […]
