Dear Doris,

Thanks so much for praying.

I like your version of the German treatment. <smile>

I've actually heard of that working before, but Vernon isn't real 
fond of beer. He drinks one now and then, but usually only one a week 
when we have Pizza.

He's drinking the cranberry juice at room temperature, as he doesn't 
like it cold.

Thanks so much to all of you for praying.

Blessings,

Pat Ferguson
