In June of 2003 I was coming down with a cold and because I catch pneumonia so easily I called my specialist (I have COPD which is chronic obstructive pulmonary disease) and asked for an antibiotic to stop the cold from becoming full blown. He gave me a prescription for a new antibiotic and I had an adverse reaction to it. The Physicians Desk Reference said taking one could be fatal and I had taken one the first night and then the next morning.

After several hours my breathing was so bad I had to be taken to the emergency room. To shorten this story I was admitted and spent 9 days in intensive care. I had my daughter bring up my Essential Oils and my Desk Reference. I looked up what was good for the respiratory system. I don't remember the oil I used but within seconds, after putting it in my rectum, I could feel the relief in my lungs.

I kept using this treatment and inhaled the oils constantly and I truly believe it was what brought me through this crisis. I received excellent care from the nursing staff, and I'm not saying it was the only thing that brought me through because it wasn't, but it sure helped! Even my primary physician could not believe I lived through this ordeal. The nurses loved coming in my room with all the nice Essential Oil smells.
