Whenever I swallow in my ears a sound of wax being squished is constantly heard.... In September, a naturopathic doctor examined me and commented on some sort of build up in my nasal and aural cavity and I think this may be related. I once thought that everyone heard this sound as they swallowed until I stretched out the cavities and discovered it is possible to swallow in silence.
My Mother was awake at my birth and I had jaundice at birth. After my birth I was moved to a phototherapy chamber shortly there after.
My Mother would have to travel a great distance from the maternity ward to where the incubators were located to breastfeed me but she did so successfully.
Edit: Can I eat the kidneys raw without cleaning them with warm water some told me they might have bad stuff in them? anybody?
RawZi, nerve problems are simply not going to get better without loads and loads of fat, particularly animal fat. Period.
Warning: graphic info to follow--faint of heart should move on:
Birth Defect
I'm not certain what my birth complications have to do with my present health, but my Mother told me I was born with jaundice. However, I was breastfed--which I'm very thankful for.
I know nothing about jaundice. Perhaps research into this disease might shed some light on possibilities of abnormality.
What we need are harsher employment laws forcing the Chinese/Polish etc. to have decent working conditions so that no one is forced to wear nappies during work etc.
Nerve damage - that's a tough one. Even loves bugs. Sigh. Why not eggs though? Can you get a few chickens without a rooster so that the eggs would never hatch any way and he can treat the chickens really well and eat those eggs? It's gotta be better than not having any source of really good fats for his nervous system I would think. I know it might seem silly to raise inferior eggs to those great fertile eggs you get - but if it's a way to get him to eat them.... Is he an teenager now? He could then handle the responsibility probably.
I've been reading a bit about the nervous system and oat straw tincture is supposed to be an excellent tonic herb for the nerves and quite restorative and it's completely vegan for him. I have some "brewing" now which is ready to be strained and can't wait to try some with hubbie (and I figure it wouldn't hurt to give some to me these days either!)
I'll look up dip wick. Thanks. I'd love to have some home-made candles!
Can you really make a candle out of fat like that? Doesn't it need beeswax or something to keep it's form and not have it immediately melt? I've never made a candle in my life. I guess I would have to google that too!
Ah yes - the internal bleeding that you mentioned. You told me that one has to have fat with fish - but never went into this more with me re hubbie - would you please? I'll make sure that every fish sauce has raw egg yolk and every single piece of sashimi has avocado (which we often do because so yummy - but not always).
Does he refuse to eat meat because he loves animals? Have you tried eggs with him yet? -- I know you get those wonderful eggs from the carnivore chickens! How old is he now Zi? I remember your story from way back how sick he was being a vegetarian and how a big part of the reason you moved back to eating animal foods was to save his life. I for some reason thought that was all over with him.
I wonder if he would be willing to eat bugs from his "ethical" standpoint or if he would be grossed out by that. I keep on thinking that I might try some cooked bugs to start myself out on with it. Does he eat all raw or does he eat cooked foods too? In what ways is he still sick?
Does he eat all raw or does he eat cooked foods too? In what ways is he still sick?
Gonna make me work are ya? Dam - it's cooked fat - when I come to think about it I really should just chuck it.
How did you know the difference between sucking on a nipple and sucking on a bottle?
...Besides, sucking on the rim of a glass was tiresome and uncomfortable. Sucking on a nipple is so comforting! I feel like I'm re-living my childhood!
I had thought that this group seemed a bit kinder and gentler than the raw groups, but alas, looks like none of you are ever going to see a picture of me either!
I for one cannot eat the bone stock I made. I broke out (haven't done that in ages) and felt sick both times I tried it.
I then placed around him 3 chopped raw onions and 6 crushed garlic cloves.
If I can't bathe him or spray him, but I can have a room smell of garlic and white onions.
20, male. nah, he doesn't eat rpd at all haha. I wake up multiple times during the night. Usually fall asleep ok.
...
thanks for the suggestions guys
yeah I only eat high meat in the mornings, I usually have fish and olive oil for dinner or something.
