Hello, my name is Patti. I was diagnosed with Stage 4 Bartholin Gland cancer in 1999.After recovering from the treatments and some complications, I was diagnosed with otomastoiditis. That doctor missed the fact that the infection also spread to my brain, so after the surgery he performed, I was taked to an ER and had emergency surgery. The doctors there said I am lucky to be alive. As did the cancer docs.During IV Therapy for my brain abscess, I devloped gall stones and had a gall bladder and pancreas attack along with a seizure. Back to the hospital for another week.I now am on anti seizure medication.The reason I write is the loss of not only all energy, but of my spiritualism, too. Not the organized religion kind, the happy to be alive kind.The things I've read of other survivors was their increased spiritualism and their quests to make the world a better place.I've had two near death experiences and I feel guilty that I have lost my believes instead of having them strengthen.Anyone out there who can relate?

Always put yourself in others' shoes. If you feel that it hurts you, it probably hurts the other person, too.

Hello everyone,

I've been reading your posts for awhile now. I got the bird mites from my

chickens last summer and realized we had a real problem in the house in

September. We've burnt our living room furniture and the master bedroom and

livingroom carpet. We enclosed our mattresses in bedbug and mite protective

covers. We sprayed and sprayed and then had an exterminator (inexperienced with

mites) spray twice and left the house . We've been hotel hopping. A different

room every night for 4weeks. I can't get them off myself. I've tried many of

the things I've read about. I think they are living in my hair. I've cut it

shorter but I'm afraid I'll have to cut it like a guy to treat my head properly.

I'm very depressed and afraid they will go after my autistic son again as I work

to rid myself of them. They do not bother my husband, thank God. He is my angel

and my right arm in fighting these. I really feel that the truck is infested

and we've been spraying it with a borax mix. I can't remember right now. For 5

or 6 days. Before that we bug bombed it and sprayed it.

I think I'm about to have a mental breakdown. I was under a lot of stress due

to being layed off for over 2 years and my husband is not working either. His

family has been helping us stay out of the house. But its all coming to an end

and I'm afraid I'll reifest the house and they will end up bitiing my son again.

I can't bear the thought of him suffering and not understanding why.

One thing that I have found that dries up the sores and helps keep them from

biting is covering my whole body with desitin diaper rash ointment. (40o/o

zinc). And swimmers ear to kill them in my ears. But they just keep crawling

in my hair .

I really don't want to go on like this. I can't get close to or my grand

babies as the mites like them too and they itch and scratch. I feel like a

leper.

Has any one ever used the Riddex plus pulse things that plug into the wall and

make a pulsing in your electrical wiring? It's supposed to get rid of rodents

and bugs. We've had them plugged in at our house since we left but don't know

if they are working. Although we've noticed the squirrels don't come near the

house anymore. My sister swears by them.

And has any one used a zapper? I was wondering if it would kill them in my hair?

Thanks for being there.

Baking soda in a bag over head...head tightly around hairline and shake.

They stopped attacking my son after that 1st infestation...they just go after me.

It does get better.

Ps if you want to get rid of ear mites on your cat or dog, give them some yogurt every day. It works like a charm.
