Oh sweet lady, I don't think there's a parent here who doesn't see, hear and feel themselves and our children in your story and in your words.
I would be baring my soul, my full and aching heart here daily I think if I could, to let you know you are not alone because the light of empathy, compassion and love is so great.
I remember we all once talking here about helping our own children and how one needed to ask for their own self not the child for a lot of personal choice, self and will reasons for others.
And I realized how simple it is to say light and love is being sent but how deep and complex that sacred energy truly is to manifest in a way that actually benefits others.
So, you have done exactly what is best. You reached into your own heart with the light of recognition and asked as a hurting mother would truly ask.
So today and every day knowing that part of you that is your daughter and part of me and my own daughters are so connected in so many ways.
I send you so much caring, compassion, mercy and wisdom through the grace of spiritual light that all you understand, know, believe and have deep faith in will evolve and be shared within every fiber of your own being to become what you and she both need in this lifetime.
Holy praise and joy for such love and faith that already lies within you and is already radiating out today and every day. For the power of a mother's love is more powerful that most would or could ever dream or imagine.

Assuming it's not vodka?, do you have the name of the tincture? Or is it something that you get from your doctor?
Attached are the two videos. The first is for general head congestion, the second focuses on clogged ears. My PT gave me additional instructions for head drainage, using a gloved hand inside the mouth and massaging the upper palate, running clockwise and "tracing the rays of the sun." (Yes, you heard me right.) I found the latter too unpleasant, so I won't pass that along unless you're really interested.

Thanks for the links. No, won't be sticking fingers in my mouth - I have hyper-gag reflex.
The tincture is called Lymph II, you can only get it from chiropractors and acupuncturists, the company won't sell direct, so we order it every year from our old acupuncturist in FL. When she retires we'll be screwed...
BTW I have found reposado tequila to be nearly as helpful, especially if mixed with a citrus-mango juice.
With the sensitivity and vulnerability I see in these young people, I also see strength and a fighting spirit deep down. There is hope. Let's keep praying to support them as they grow into the powerful change agents they are becoming.
You may be on to something, A connection of anxiety and depression with the climate crisis regarding our youth is very interesting.. I LOVE your statement of hope above. So hopefulful and empowering.
Thank you for your prayers!
I love what you said about this place being our village. In so many ways too.
Thank you for your prayers and all that sent love.
I always feel your love when you send caring messages as you so often do. They are always appreciated and give so much support and healing. And hope. Can't forget the hope.
Thank You! Thank You!

My intention was to highly a particular thought which struck me while reading your post. But while I re-read it just now, I realize EVERYTHING moves me. So I thank you for your words once again. They are very loving and caring. They always are, for all of us.
I am sending yo a great big loving hug my friend.
Thank you for asking about my old daughter, the music educator.
She is a very strong empath. She is teaching at a title one school. Children with LOTS of needs, more than you would ever dream. She also is dealing with behavioral issues in classes and is responsible for teaching 8 classes a day, and is responsible for between 600-700 students for music over all.
Lots of germs. Absorbing all of the emotional baggage the kids are feeling and trying to stay on her game is a bit overwhelming for her immune system I imagine. I think today is a decent health day. Yesterday she was worried she was getting the stomach flu, but ginger helped. She needs a long break. She is working about 12 hours a day between actually teaching, lesson planning, grading and parent conferences. I would say another 6 or so hours over the weekend.
She has actually gotten MAD about getting sick so much. I am hopeful she is done with everything that is out there contaminating the world right now.
and @deetoo
Hi, hope you don't mind me giving my 2 cents to recommend something I'm currently taking that has helped me from getting whatever cold my husband has (and he seems to be getting over it faster than normal too). We take these two products: Gaia Herbs Whole Body Defense Liquid Phyto-Capsules, 60 Count and gaia quick defense immune support at onset
Better than zicam or anything else we've tried :)
@triciact, Thanks. I've seen those in Whole Foods and will give them a try. Umcka usually works well for me, but this bug was determined to stick around.
@lovendures, Your daughter is under a lot of stress. Teaching so many children with special needs, being so dedicated, and an empath, makes it all even more challenging. And then there's the exposure to all of those kids' germs. Our next door neighbor, who is a teacher in elementary school, recently said to me, "I've been sick for the past few months because of my exposure to live bacteria on my job." Being so foggy-brained I took her literally, thinking that she changed professions. It occurred to me after the fact that she was talking about her students! She has a rather wicked sense of humor.
Your daughter is a gift to her students, and her profession is a sacred one. I will keep your daughter in my prayers, so that she receive divine direction, balance, and any support she needs.
