Went through a horrible and itchy few days thinking I had contracted lice while flying back home from Spokane. The back of my head was sooo itchy and nothing seemed to relieve it. Was also more prevalent at night. I watched an episode of Modern Family and Lily came home with lice and then Clare got it. I hadnt thought of lice until then. Now, Im totally freaking out and even more itchy. So, I have Dewey look at it and he confirms my worries and disgust. He says its not bad, but he can see them moving slowly. I make my own concoction after reading about which essential oils kill them and begin the arduous chore of washing EVERYTHING. Since Im contagious, Dewey goes to the store to get the metal comb and finds a natural remedy and I begin to follow their instructions with sprays and a plastic wrap over my head. Dewey starts to comb through my hair and hes not getting anything. What? We killed them? Theyre gone? Whered they go? Crap, are they elsewhere now on things I havent even washed? After further investigation we discover it was just my eczema acting up, which it does when I fly. I dont why its worse when I fly, but it always is. The little white things he saw was just skin from my scratching. Dont know what was moving except his imagination. Now, heres the rub and this is the important part. Yes, I was relieved and if I am honest, that was not my first response. My first emotion was anger at Dewey for misdiagnosing me. Even though he went out of his way to stop work and go get me the comb and talk me off the ledge when I was totally freaking out. This is a great example of how fear and anger which leads to negativity can jump ahead of gratefulness. AND I think Im an expert at this. Ha!! Just because I have awareness doesnt mean I dont respond like everyone else. My gratitude list for today: I AM grateful for this experience as it teaches me once again how fear isnt real. Fear is a projection into the future with made up circumstances and endings. I AM grateful for learning more about lice and the toxic treatments that most people use on their precious children filled with pesticides, chemicals and poison that goes quickly into the bloodstream. I AM grateful to have created a solution and possibly another product to add to the Aunt Be Botanicals line of healing remedies. I AM grateful that I now have clean EVERYTHING! I AM grateful to my husband who loves me so much and is always willing to help, nurture and even get the bugs out of my life:)
