I was so excited at having received my very first shipment of oils; Oregano, Thieves and Lavender. I had just opened them and was experimenting with a home-made wooden case to keep them in when I inadvertently caught the tuft of my little finger between the heavy lid and the body of the case. OUCH! It was SO painful and already I could see the purpleness of a blood blister forming; from experience I knew I was in for about 3 days of pain and a month or more of ugly bruise; it was a severe pinch.
I hollered into the kitchen for my husband, who happened to be fixing himself a cold drink, and asked him to "Please bring me an ice cube, immediately, if not sooner!" He did so, and I applied to my finger. It caused more pain and I could stand it only about 30 seconds before I realized I probably had the solution in my lap.
I had heard that, if you can only afford one oil, order Lavender, because it has been used by many people to help so many different injuries. So I opened it and put a drop on my blood blister. In THREE SECONDS I had no more pain. As I examined my finger curiously, my jaw dropped and I exclaimed to my husband that "I've just witnessed a miracle! Not only is there no more pain, I can literally see the bruise going away!"
Now, I transcribe medical reports for a living, and when I injured myself, I was not looking forward to pounding the "A" key on my keyboard for the next few days, but after using the Lavender, I was able to work a 10-hour shift the very next day with NO PAIN and NO BLISTER.
Frankly, I'm still in awe, but I'll never forget to use Lavender!
