• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private.

  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Prayers, please

Omicron is a piece of cake, nowhere near the misery of “COVID Classic.” You guys will be fine, Dot. God bless you all. Lord have mercy.
It was pretty tough on me (and the boys) the first two days. Ugh. Like a bad flu. But I'm grateful we got this one instead of the original strain. Thanks for your kind words and prayers!

You can make hydroxychloroquine by boiling citrus peels and simmering them for three hours. It makes a substance called quinine, and you take zinc with it.


I pray you get better.
Thanks. :)

The boys are better, and I'm doing better, as well. Go back to work tomorrow. Hoping my energy level is okay. Thankful my scheduler didn't put me on until tomorrow and has me working small shifts three days next week. It gives me time to gain back my energy and fully recover. Thanks for checking on me. :)

continued prayers!

I am glad to hear you are feeling better. I came down with the old version on January 6th and it absolutely flattened me out for 3 weeks. I lost 15 pounds because I couldn't eat, and I was a miserable mess. I honestly think that if I had not had hydroxychloroquine and Ivermectin to take I would be dead now. It was really bad even with those two drugs plus the Zinc, Vitamin C and Quercetin I was taking.

Prayers for your continued healing

Yes, I remember your posting about getting covid and how sick you felt. I'd prayed for you. I'm so glad you're feeling better and have recovered! Maybe you got the Delta variant? I don't know what I got. It's assumed it was Omicron because apparently it's made it's way through my state. I can imagine how you felt. The first two days were horrible for me and my oldest son. I basically couldn't get out of bed but to go to the bathroom the first couple of days. My body ached, chills were so bad, I was in sweatpants and warm top, socks, and covers, and still was cold. Had fever for about 3 days. Anyway, I didn't have access to that medication, but I did take extra vitamins D and C. Again, I'm so glad you're better!
