Journey into self-healing
Thursday, January 31, 2019 - 9:30am

Magically in a couple of days there was a scab and in less than a week my knees were almost like new. Was it the medicine or the bandage that made my knees better I wondered? When my friend Jill fell out of our favorite climbing tree and...
