    A pinch of Cod Liver Oil is more than anyone should have to endure.

    I don't believe Devin has to worry about flesh-eating, or brain-eating, bacteria, but it will still be a good idea for Mac to keep a close eye on him. However, I don't believe that there would be any worm-like creature that would be up for the challenge of dealing with a determined Devin.

    Beyond its primary use in lithium-ion batteries, lithium is also used in various industrial applications including: creating heat-resistant glass and ceramics, producing specialized lubricants (lithium grease), acting as a flux additive in metal production (iron, steel, aluminum), and as a component in certain alloys used in aircraft parts due to its lightweight properties; additionally, lithium compounds are used in some medications as a mood stabilizer for conditions like bipolar disorder.

    The word lithium is from the Greek word lithos (stone). The word was chosen because lithium was discovered in a mineral, unlike other alkali metals that were discovered in plants.

    That's awful, Al, and I'm sorry to hear about that. I'm going through something similar right row, and I pray it doesn't continue for as long as your situation has. I wish you all the best.

    Now that's digging back into some old time TV jargon. I almost feel like I'm watching a 50s western or the original Lassis TV series.

    Never having had anything quite that extreme, so I can only empathize with what you went through. It couldn't have been easy.

    You may not be too far off about this, all joking aside.

    I don't see where he's taking the worse case scenario with Devin's case, just merely taking precautions because a lot more can go wrong than you or others are looking at. He's just trying to do what's best for his patient. Btw, are you really some kind of a doctor or did you just grab that honorific on your own, since you you use the lower case version.

    I believe they boys, and maybe Pa as well, feel it's best that not too many people are involved in his healing processs. If one of the doctor's is suspicious, then it would be easy to involve someone to help look after Devin without the boys realizing what was really happening. Therefore, I think they all feel safer if they just stick to taking care of one another.

    Sometimes when people are hurt or angry, they tend not to think clearly about what they're doing. They just know that they feel hurt and they're reacting to it. Hopefully, Pa willl be able to get her to realize what she's actually doing.

    No, she's just a mother who was beginning to feel as if she was being replaced. That's why Mac suggestion to Devin that he let his mom do some of the things for him was so important.

    I'm sure Mac is doing what he can, but with everything else he has to take care of in order to pick up their food, keep Devin up to date with his classes, as well as his own classwork, I'm sure he's more than frazzled by the end of each day.

    Yes, I believe you're spot on Al. It's highly unlikely that the only good skinwalkers are the Shaman, his son, Gramps, Pops, Aaron, Devin, and now Mac.

    You forget, when the Shaman first came up with the processs, no one else was willing to become involved. As far as we know, the only good shifters are the shaman, his son, Gramps, Pops, Aaron, and Devin, and now Mac. We don't have to worry about any doctors being shifters.

    I know, the same is true of every pair of sweats I've own, but sometimes you hope your readers will just allow an occasional comment slide under the radar. lol

    Yes, he can't afford to heal too quickly, otherwise it will raise red flags, as well as a comeupance from his mom.

    Yes, those are always the concerns, but he can't do some thing to make it appear that he's healing too quickly. That would raise red flags.

    We can hope, but you must all be aware of the phrase, "the impatience or youth."

    Sucking helium out of a balloon may seem like fun and can make sound very strange, but when you inhale helium, it replaces oxygen in your bloodstream during gas exchange. This can lead to asphyxia (oxygen deprivation) and loss of consciousness, sometimes without warning. You might fall and injure yourself, even if you start breathing normally again.

    Chapter 42 – The Long Road Back I didn’t sleep as well as usual, since I was so worried about doing something that might injure Devin further. It’s because we weren’t sleeping as we normally would, with one of us spooned up behind the other, I was afraid I might try to do that unconsciously during the night and accidentally knock him out of bed. Even though I was worried about doing something like that, I still somehow managed to get enough sleep. As soon as we were both awake, I
