i am so sorry, dude. i either forgot or didnt pay attention to you about your knees.
comfrey. are you doing comfrey? if not, MH's version of christophers bone, flesh and cartilage is a real winner. but knowing you mix your own herbs, just buy some comfrey and add to the mix. at the same time, you could do some poultice type wraps on your knees. comfrey is a big one the feds have been after. no better recommendation can be had these days!
thank you for your testimony. it is a comfort and encouragement to many!
do your shopping. the next gust in your sails is already in the air and gaining speed!!!!!!
