I guess my brain doesn’t work that way, I’m a come out and say it type than subtle messages, so I don’t know.

First, if anyone has a good easy recipe for red velvet cake I need it! My granddaughter wants one for her birthday Tuesday and thinks I can make it. I cook, but I’m not a baker.

Update on my dear DIL:

Thank you. Last night, I talked to my son and granddaughter and asked them if they told the doctor every single thing she had consumed lately, because some things, even OTC supplements, can have an adverse effect on a few people.
They found a bottle of something called “ashwagaganda” I’m probably not spelling it right, but it’s something he had ordered online that’s supposed to relax you. My granddaughter found it by my DIL desk and apparently she had taken it. It says don’t take if you have thyroid problems, which she has. It was late at night, but I told him he should call and leave message about it. The nurse told him that now they’re just trying to save her life instead of trying to figure out what caused this. But I guess the nurse got curious and did some research, told the doctor who also did, and they figured out the heart problem was caused by that mixing with medications.
THANK THE LORD! So her heart is working OK now, but she is still on life support as they are going to give her dialysis hoping to get her kidneys functioning.
So prayers still needed and appreciated!
The doc said liver can repair itself, even if they have to remove part of it.

The nurse that did research may have saved her life, hopefully, and more lives as a warning. I tell everyone do not take any of the cr×× online or even at the convenience store including energy drinks, they are not good!

Wow, Rusty. That’s such a terrible thing for an OTC natural product! I’m so glad they figured it out, and that her heart is working again. I hope her kidneys will kick in after they do the dialysis. My goodness. What a fright.

Ashwagandha Plant

While it does have some beneficial properties, it is of the Nightshade Family. (cue the dut-dut-duh music which foretells doom in movies)
