I watch the news and hear of outbreaks of illnesses in young children. Things that were never heard of in my day of being a child. Is it possible that with all the sanitizing and germiciding parents are doing now a days is causing a weaker immune system in children. I have been very healthy my entire life, and my mom didn't do all the sanitizing and such. We didn't have purel and other sanitizers for the hands. All we had was good 'ol soap and water. With all the germs being killed before they reach the body, doesn't that causes suseptability? Since the immune system hasn't had a chance to fight it and build up antibodies against it?

I have 3 or 4 cubes of glass from a car accident embedded in my forearm. Its been really irritating lately and I want to avoid going to a surgeon and having it surgically removed. It feels like it's moving much closer to the skin lately, like it wants to come out.

My father and mother both recommended "drawing salve" which is this black, very horrible smelling ointment to get the glass out. I'm trying it now and want to know if anyone has any experience with it, and what kind of shrapnel they used it for. Thanks in advance.

I dropped a small boulder on it. The one's you put around your garden. I cut the fingernail right back, because it kept snagging on things and nearly coming off, so I cut it right back and it is only about a quarter of an inch long now. It looks really weird! Should I just leave it alone now?
