Good Evening, Neville:

Yes we live in the United States - Beautiful Pennsylvania.  

Yes, Sammy still has his tonsils and adenoids.

  Morning Bernadette,

  Two quick questions if you don't mind...Do you reside in the US? and has 
junior still got his tonsils?  Just curious that's all.

  Neville.

    What a turn around for my grandson. Diagnosed with mono on Wednesday of 
last week (and now not so sure). From a throat that was as red as Santa's coat 
with lots of white pustueles - to a very normal looking throat with just a few 
spots left over.  Still has a slight nasal twang with a cough every once in 
awhile.  

    Had him on 2 tablespoons of CS about 6 times a day in the early onset and 
now down to 2 tablespoons about 3 times a day.  He is also taking the raw 
Coconut oil, with honey on top which he really does enjoy. 

    At bedtime I make a steam sauna in our bathroom and he sits in there with 
me for about 15 minutes and then right into bed for the night.  It is good his 
mom and dad are away since Thursday and returning tonight.  I have been able to 
keep us the regimine with no interference (but with his mom's approval).

    I believe everything working together really did the trick to keep Sammy 
from getting much worse.

    I want to thank everyone for their help and imput.  I hope his parents 
continue to use the CS (which they use so don't see a problem with that), 
however, when they see I have been feeding him the Solid Coconut Oil (even 
though he enjoys it) not so sure she will go along with it.  I can only hope.

    Thank you and I hope everyone of you has a wonderful Holiday and a very 
Merry Christmas.
