I'm an RN, although not currently practicing. Our hospitals just aren't set up for the kind of epidemics that occurred in the past. <br /><br />In the case of "eradicated" diseases, I'd rather care for my family at home as much and as long as possible (with phone guidance from our MD). Hospitals and doctor's offices will become contagion points instead of places to get better.Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07668598488790234072noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5526768924178592295.post-5307520416689473682011-06-11T07:52:19.734-07:002011-06-11T07:52:19.734-07:00This looks awesome!

Definitely right up my alley. <br /><br />I just found your blog through True Femininity and wanted to say hello, from another Idahoan who, from the looks of it, has VERY similar beliefs and views! :) Love your blog so far!! Excited to share your WND article with my MIL (if she didn't read it already, she loves WND!) who is a 32 year homeschooling mom!! We are very much in agreement with you.JoyFilledhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17370107748830471726noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5526768924178592295.post-38178046197270878912011-06-10T20:34:41.199-07:002011-06-10T20:34:41.199-07:00There is a need for a book of this sort.

As she states on the page to which you link'<br /><br />"In a TEOTWAWKI, grid-down or terrorist attack scenario, we maybe faced with a resurgence of potentially deadly plagues and diseases. With few resources and limited access to medical equipment, facilities and knowledge, we may very well be thrust into the roll of caretaker and medical practitioner for our families, friends and neighbors."<br /><br />In my own survival guide, I give natural remedies for common ailments, but not many of the things listed here.<br /><br />Already, with our porous southern border, there have been reports of outbreaks of leprosy in the SW United States. As the number of infected people come in unchecked, there will be a higher risk of diseases we have never had to deal with before.<br /><br />I applaud her efforts. There is certainly a need for a book of this sort.Steve Herrhttp://www.docstoc.com/profile/newcreature52noreply@blogger.com
