As you know, I haven't posted in quite a while. However, I ran across this remedy that I have to share with you, Father, because I tried it and it works. I have not tried it very long as I just learned about it a couple of days ago. To show you how effective it is, I was able to sleep without the heavy pain relief prescription lidocaine patches last night. Unheard of for me!
You will find the information at the following links:

Please remember to put the 1 or 2 leaves in the microwave for about 20 seconds after sprinkling them with water. This way you don't have to smash the leaf. Otherwise, you will have to put the leaves in boiling water and use a wine bottle or rolling pin to smooth it out and bring the nutrients to the surface before using as a medication.
In case you don't see this post, I will include it in my next offering to St. Jude and request that it be forwarded to you.
I hope the remedy will be as effective for you as it has been for me.
Thank you for that once in a lifetime experience of joy.
