I remember falling from a foot log into the creek with a quart jar full of milk that we had purchased from a neighbor. The jar broke and a jagged piece of glass cut deep into my arm exposing white tendons. We had little money and no insurance but my aunts used an old remedy to promote healing. They filled the wound with sugar and turpentine and bandaged it with clean cloths. I can still remember having to have the bandages changed and the wound would stick to the bandage. They used warm grease to loosen the bandage. It was a slow, painful and tedious process. The wound, however, healed in a short time with no complications. My aunts were from Morgan Co. KY.
