regarding the persistently coughing 4 year old; we're 2 weeks into coughing this time, despite the fact that i've had him nebulizing colloidal silver for a couple of hours a day. after a week of this, we tried another trick, a slice of onion on the sole of the foot overnight. i don't of course know if the cough would be wose without the colloidal silver, but i will say that this time, the onion seems to be making a big difference. his coughing is much (80%?) reduced when he has the onion on his soles (and indeed the change is noticeable within minutes), and within an hour or 2 of removing the onion, he starts coughing heavily again. at this stage i'm just keeping onions on his feet 24 hours; we tried overnight and noticed twice that soon after removing it, he started to get worse, and that trend reversed when it was reapplied. so now i'm going to try 48 hours of constant sole onions and see how that goes. i note that many many people have this persistent cough now; the weather is just beginning to become a bit autumnal here now, so i find this trend very concerning, frankly.
