Glycerine was // Re: CSBrooks' Archives, was Leg Rash
Is it available here somewhere Rowena? Or still on your pc? Could someone discuss Glycerine with me please? I never use it. Because although it is supposed to soften or even moisten the skin we are told in hospital situations that we no longer use it because it actually draws fluid from the underlying tissue causing even deeper dehydration - we use to use it in mouth washes for patients but not now = for that reason. I believe this rationale is correct wonder if poeple are aware of this problem with glycerine? Or have another reason to use it? THanks for all your leg rash responses - much appreciated. Jane - Original Message - From: Rowena Well, I did download everything of Brooks' that was on Wayne's list a while back, and got most of the way through getting rid of all the artefacts of email, but I have not finished it. I wanted to present it to Brooks as a complete tidy record of his previous posts, as an incident robbed him of all his computer records a few years ago. I don't know when I will get back to it, but it is available, whether for the archives or for individuals, and maybe somebody will have the time and energy to finish the beautification to make it a complete, easily readable document.

Try here http://www.fugitt.com/cs_notes/ Umm MBX files and Brooksbradley I think. Just shut it down and must go. :-\ OK, Tony On 16 Jan 2011 at 20:52, Smitty wrote about : Subject : Re: CSBrooks' Archives, was Leg Ra I looked at Wayne's files and didn't see any of Brooks' = http://www.fugitt.com Smitty Well, I did download everything of Brooks' that was on Wayne's list a while back, Is there one location in which we can find all of Brooks recipes//findings?

The hygroscopic nature of glycerin does not compromise this protocol simply because of the large volumetric component of the colloidal silver solution.
