Story from a friend

Sorry, no graphic for this one, and don't laugh, it works 100% of the time
although the scientists at the Canada Research council who discovered it
aren't sure why.

To stop nighttime coughing in a child (or adult as we found
out personally), put Vicks Vaporub generously on the bottom of the feet
at bedtime then cover with socks.

Even persistent, heavy, deep coughing will stop in about 5 minutes and stay
stopped for many, many hours of relief.

Works 100% of the time and is more effective in children than even very
strong prescriptions cough medicines. In addition it is extremely soothing
and comforting and they will sleep soundly.

I heard the head of the Canada Research Council describe these findings on
behalf of their scientists when they were investigating the effectiveness
and usage of prescription cough medicines in children as compared to
alternative therapies like accupressure. I Just happened to tune in A.M.
Radio and picked up this guy talking about why cough medicines in kids
often do more harm than good due to the chemical makeup of these strong drugs, so I listened.

It was a surprising finding and found to be more effective than prescribed
medicines for children at bedtime, and in addition, it has a soothing and
calming effect on sick children who then went on to sleep soundly .

Lolly tried it on herself when she had a very deep constant and persistent
cough a few weeks ago and it worked 100%! She said that it felt like a warm
blanket had enveloped her. Her coughing stopped in a few minutes and
believe me, this was a deep,( incredibly annoying!) every few seconds
uncontrollable cough, and she slept cough free for hours every night that she
used it.

So, if you have children, pass it on, if you end up sick, try it yourself
and you will be absolutely amazed by the effect
