All Things Hold Together

A blog about cooking, crafting, faith, family…you know, the good stuff.

I am still not fully healed from the flu that I have had for the past 10 days or so. I lose my energy sometime in the afternoon (no, more than normal) and I have a bad cough still.

Every night this week, I have been up coughing. I take cough medicine, to no avail.

Last night, I was coughing so much that I threw up three times!

After I brushed my teeth and had some water, I was still coughing. I realized that I had thrown up the cough medicine and I was wondering what to do so that Bob and I could get a good night’s sleep.

Then I remembered reading an article about a study that showed honey to be an effective cough remedy for children.

I went and had a spoonful of that delicious raw raspberry blossom honey that I told you about and went back to bed.

I coughed once more when I got back into bed, but after that, I was out like a light and did not cough even once throughout the night!

I still have the cough this morning, so it is not gone. The honey quieted my cough for the whole night.

I was so amazed by this, I had to share.
