Hello Cecil,
That was a nice live report - it should be translated
into Konkani for a Goan tiatr which you can partner
with any tiatrist.
Have a nice day.....

I was thoroughly amused by Paddy's reminiscences of a breach boy
stomping on somebody's aching back. It certainly beats mine of a 6
year-old being chased around the house by a tyrannical (in a loving
sort of way) grandmother with a can of "hingachem aajuth" in her
thick firm hands. That is one instance of childhood trauma that I
must admit I love to reminisce with great fondness.
I would like to extend Paddy's and Sunila's wonderful lists of home
remedies with the following nostrums from my late grandmother's IRCP
(Independent Republic of Chimbel Pharmacopeia). Besides the monthly
pure Shankarchhaap hingachem aajuth (Shankar brand asafoetida warm
water enema), there was the weekly (every Sunday morning)
kiraitiachem kodu vokhoth (medicated bitter water drained from boiled
kiraitem leaves). These were supposed to flush the alimentary canal
clean at both its unruly ends. But there were times when even these
well-guarded ends did not justify the meals. For such occasions my
grandma had the aalem-limbacho ros (ground ginger in lime juice with
added salt). I now use this concoction as an appetizer, because if
you ever need an excuse to eat something, believe me a taste of this
juice in your mouth provides you one.
For headaches, there was the soonth kaadop (paste of dried ginger
smeared on the forehead). As it turns out, I have formed a Pavlovian
association between the smell of soonth and my grandmother's face.
She would have this stuff plastered on her forehead almost every
evening, a small wonder after having spent the day haggling over the
catch of the day with itinerant fisherwomen.
There were of course the ubiquitous hot compresses and laying of cold
hands, along with the mini-exorcisms (disht kaadop - some dried red
chillies and salt drawn around the head and body, and then thrown
away). And then there was the ganjanacho kasai (lemon grass tea).
This one I liked. But it was reserved for the common cold with cough.
I will end this post by mentioning one whose appeal to common
intuition I have never been able to figure out. I think it was used
when I was really sick and bedridden. It involved tying a few cloves
of garlic in a knot around my belly. This, coupled with the no-bath-
when-sick policy imposed on me, meant I stank of garlic for quite a
while afterwards. I always had the nagging suspicion that this was
meant to ground me for a few days. My grandparents couldn't bear to
see me play.
Thinking about these ancestral home remedies as a grown man with some
education and with some ability to reason, I would have to conclude
that these wonderful treatments are more of nostalgic than
therapeutic value, unless of course you are of the type for whom
nostalgia is panacea.
It would be such a pleasure to read a compilation of Goan folk
remedies.
Cheers,
Santosh
