    3. Need to make a picture & send to us.  Need to ride a horse in.   But you may be like me,  couldn't get up on it.  I may not have any trick r treaters, just 2 at the most.  Since I've got a small bag, there will be 10 or more come to the door.  Years ago I had several each year, but 1 year I had over 15 this far out in the country.  Mrs. Palmertree never got any candy, But 1 year she had 2 come to the door, so she gave them .25 cents.  I didn't have any candy & it wasn't my house, so I let her go to the door.   Got to tell this story, 3 of us were living in Jackson.  Rooming with this old maid.  She had gone to a club meeting & left the porch light on.  It was a warm night & we had the windows up & we heard some children across the street, & heard them say, that porch light is on.  So Jo & I went down with some candy.   One said is that all you going to give us?  The other Peggy droped a sheet on them, & they talked bad. Then come the ice water on them.  We had gone down to the kitchen & got a pitcher of ice water, so we had to go get some more.  Glad the parents didn't come visit us.  Now Nova, it really was the other Peggy that throw the sheet & water, but it was funny.  If any more came, we didn't go to the door.  Jo ask me if I remembered that when I was down in Sept.  We even got a snow ball throwed at us by a city cop.  Peggy Ann had put some snow down his collar.  Just glad we saw him every morn. on his Hardley, helping small children cross the street to go to school.  Got some other tales but don't have time.  Peggy ________________________________ From: "[email protected]" <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Saturday, October 29, 2011 11:43 AM Subject: Re: [PTREE] Peggy's stories Thanks Jeanine,  I do have that option.  Talk about  flying over with your broom, I am getting a semi-costume ready for Monday Night.  I volunteered to help pass out candy at the living center where my older sister  lives, so trying for a cowgirl look.

I'll tell mine if you'll tell yours! :) My Dad had two strange happenings that he told. Back in the early 1930's he would help out his mother and grandmother by working at sawmills whenever he could pick up a day or two of work. I'm sure all of you know that sawmill work is hard, dirty, dangerous and with long hours. Once he was walking back home well after dark. The mill was set up back in the Kazey(Casey) Mountains way back behind Chapel Hill Church. As he was walking along in the dark a fish came swimming out of the woods just about chest high. The fish swam in front of him, then turned and headed up the road in the same direction. He said he was afraid to pass it, walk beside it or turn his back on it to run the other way. He said that no matter how fast or slow he walked that fish matched his speed. If he stopped the fish stopped and appeared to be swimming in place. He said he was scared out of his mind. Finally after a mile or so the fish slowly turned and swam back into the woods. He said he lit a shuck out of there and didn't look back. Another night, again coming back from a sawmill in the Kazey Mountains he was headed home. Everything was quiet (no fish in sight) when he started hearing someone walking a little behind him and to one side of the trail. He would stop, they would stop, he walked faster, they walked faster, slow down and they did too. He was seriously scared of who or what it was following him. Then suddenly something went thump, thump, thump thump behind him. He lit out running for all he was worth for home. Then suddenly he ran, whump, into something or someone. He nearly had a heart attack. When he jumped up to run again the old mule turned his head and brayed at him, he had run full speed into the rump of a mule! The noise behind him? It turned out to be a rabbit that had finally gotten tired of playing and had thumped the ground. I think it took a few years off my Dad's life! Now Daddy was a strict no drinking man so I don't think his fish came from a bottle. Until he died Daddy would tell those two tales and wonder aloud just what and where that fish came from.

It is water soluble so it needs to be taken about every 3 hours since it rushes through the body. It should be constantly in the body for it to be effective. I got me some to take since my mother had A. but I only take it once a day as I forget to take it more often. Probably is not doing me any good.. Ha.

Best $30 spent If you like the information in this Health Dispatch, be sure to subscribe to Dr. Williams’ monthly newsletter for more valuable information on your health. The $30 Cure for Alzheimer’s Dear Carolyn, There’s no question about it, Alzheimer’s is a scary disease. It seems to come without warning, and worst of all, until now there’s been no cure. Over 5 million Americans now have Alzheimer’s, and that number is expected to grow to over 14 million by 2050. If the current trend continues, one out of every eight baby boomers in this country will develop Alzheimer’s. Being a baby boomer myself, those odds are pretty frightening—and until now, the prognosis had been dismal. The best one could hope for was to slow its progression with various medications, supplements, and changes in diet and lifestyle. Now, there’s a breakthrough that can actually help to reverse Alzheimer’s Researchers have discovered that niacinamide (a form of vitamin B3) can restore the memory loss of Alzheimer’s disease. Dr. Kim Green, at the University of California at Irvine, gave the human dose equivalent of 2,000 to 3,000 mg of niacinamide to mice with Alzheimer’s disease. After treating the mice for only four months, he discovered what should have been front-page news in every city in the world. “Cognitively, they were cured,” said Dr. Green. “They performed as if they’d never developed the disease.” Rarely do you hear researchers using the word “cured,” but that’s exactly what happened. At the end of the study, the diseased mice that were treated with niacinamide performed just as well in memory tests as healthy mice. The niacinamide not only protected their brains from further memory loss, it also restored lost memory function. Dr. Green said, “The vitamin completely prevented cognitive decline associated with the disease, bringing them back to the level they’d be at if they didn’t have the pathology.” If this wasn’t exciting enough, niacinamide also improved memory and behavior in the mice without Alzheimer’s. I probably shouldn’t have been that surprised, but the reaction from the medical community and mainstream press actually shocked me. Alzheimer’s organizations have totally ignored the research Many Alzheimer’s organizations continue to follow the party line that high doses of vitamins can be toxic and shouldn’t be taken except under the supervision of a doctor. Practically every article I saw reporting on the research offers the same warning. This is total bull. Millions of Alzheimer’s sufferers could benefit from high doses of niacinamide right now, and millions more could possibly prevent the disease by taking it. Not to mention that 2,000 to 3,000 mg a day is totally harmless. There has never been a death reported from niacinamide supplementation. That’s probably because, as animal studies have shown, a toxic dose in humans would be somewhere around 375,000 mg a day—nearly a pound. Compare this to the over 250,000 deaths each year caused by prescribed drugs I do want to repeat that the above study was performed on animals, not humans, and it’s possible that the effects wouldn’t be as profound on humans. The results of the study, however, were so impressive that there are several human studies that are being conducted right now, using varying lengths and dosages. The results, though, won’t be available until late 2011 at the earliest. If I had a friend or family member with the disease, or if I were predisposed to Alzheimer’s (meaning I had the genetic mutation for Alzheimer’s or had a family member that has or has had the disease), I would immediately start taking higher doses of niacinamide. Remember that the research also strongly suggests that it could improve memory in healthy individuals as well. When there’s no accepted cure for Alzheimer’s disease, and the best that can be hoped for with other current therapies is to slow the disease’s progression, I can’t understand why there would be any hesitation in beginning niacinamide therapy. It’s absolutely safe and inexpensive as well. The authors of the above study reportedly purchased a year’s supply of the vitamin for $30. The best $30 you’ll ever spend If you’re concerned about your memory or have a family history of Alzheimer’s disease, don’t wait. Look for safe, inexpensive, well-tolerated niacinamide (not niacin) in your health food store. There have been different doses recommended in the research, but the one I highly recommend is taking 250 mg every three waking hours (six doses) for a total of 1,500 mg daily. Dividing your doses is important since niacinamide is water-soluble and is cleared by the body in about three hours. To get niacinamide, I recommend going to Freeda Vitamins at freedavitamins.com, for preservative-free capsules, and Pure Bulk at purebulk.com for powder. If opt to use the powder, you should know that one good pinch equals about 250 mg. It’s pretty bitter, but you get used to the taste. Just mix it into water, tea, or juice. But there is one thing to keep in mind. While niacinamide can work miracles, it doesn’t happen overnight. What researchers have found is that while some people begin to experience subtle improvements within the first few hours or days, the more serious cases could take a year or even longer to resolve. A good diet and exercise is also important. So is taking a good multi-vitamin mineral supplement that contains a broad balance of the other B vitamins, along with vitamins A and D. * * * At this point I can’t say for certain that niacinamide in high doses will completely reverse memory loss in humans the way it did in mice. But considering its safety, availability, and cost, niacinamide is certainly worth a try—particularly since no other viable options are currently available. In the above study with mice, it didn’t just improve the problem; it proved to be a cure. Until next time, Dr. David Williams Please let us know if you found this article helpful.
