DPP Day 14- Night Owl

We interrupt this month-long program to take some time out for an all-nighter and an ear infection. Thankfully, it was short-lived. Here he is at midnight, watching Thomas the Train as a distraction. Desperate times call for desperate measures, and all that jazz.

For those who are interested, we made some ear oil by simmering crushed garlic in olive oil, and added a few drops of grapefruit seed extract. I also put a clove a garlic (cut to fit) in his ear. He actually wanted it in there. That, along with a tincture of echinacea, elderberry, and peppermint and he seemed 100% better after 24 hours. He also had two doses of ibuprofen- you have to sleep to get well. (Mom has to sleep to function.) He went from screaming for an hour straight, to sleeping peacefully with no trace of pain the next day. I was impressed.
