Tuesday, September 22, 2009 - Athlete's feet and Baby Dolls
Posted in Family Life

Now that's an odd combination - Athlete's feet and Baby Dolls.  Let me explain.

About a month ago, little Isabella was diagnosed with Athlete's feet.  We tried the over the counter cream, and it wasn't working.  I was giving the poor child benadryl nightly to relieve the itching so she could sleep.  In desperation, I called a friend who enjoys learning about and using herbal and homeopathic remedies.  She looked in her books, and made a few suggestions.  I chose to use garlic first for the Athlete's feet, and I must say, I was IMPRESSED.  Within 2 days, it began to clear up, and Isabella was sleeping without awakening due to itchy feet.

Now, Isabella asks for garlic for any little boo boo......and, for her baby dolls as well.  the other day, Isabella came into the kitchen and asked for some garlic for her baby doll - her baby doll apparently has athlete's feet now.  So I told her we would pretend - and I pretended to get some garlic out and give her some, which she pretended to accept.

After a bit, I went to check on her, and she had sneaked back into the kitchen at some point and gotten all the garlic I had...she had bitten the largest bulb and rubbed it on her baby's feet, and was in the process of peeling another one!  I asked her if it was hot, and she shrugged her shoulders and said 'yeah'.

Perhaps she will have a future in the health care field?

Blessings,
Hope
