You have become so educated. I bet you will be feeling really great by the time I visit you. I won't be able to keep up with you, but I never have been able to.
Do you remember Bev Brown's mother in Hemet? I visited her in the hospital when we thought we were losing her. We started talking about the funeral. They gave her postassium, she rebounded in twenty-four hours, was a different woman and lived many more years. Yes, potassium is pretty essential. Eat your banannas. - dad
