Stocking up on Meds

[Mortblanc]

You might also look into the use of a willow bark tea to obtain the same effect as the aspirin.

That is one of the only herbal remedies I have any faith in.

The stomach irritation thing is a problem with some people, myself included, which is why they reduced the dosage to 1/2, then 1/4.

These long term health issues really do make one reevaluate the "survival plan", and bring realism into the picture.

And they only increase with age, which is one reason why the life expectancy of past times, which we would consider our SHTF situation, was so low. There were a few old people, but most did not make it past their 40s. In fact, most parents never lived long enough to see their children grown.

Probably one reason we have so much family conflict these days. We live long enough to have an extended family.
