Bali Belly

My poor lil E bear struggled with Bali belly last week on and off for almost 5 days.  She's lost a little bit of weight which as anyone who knows us, can recall the incredible amount of anxiety this causes for me.  We have worked hard to keep her healthy and this is such a blow.  She was feeling well on Saturday morning, finally and stayed well until tonight (Tuesday).  A little bit of an upset stomach, needing rest and no appetite at dinner.  She's so great at knowing which herbal and homeopathic remedies help her.  There is one version of chinese harbs we call 'the yellow pill' which has a nasty biter taste but really helps knock out some Bali belly.  With some protest, she will take it hidden in a scoop of peanut butter or some raw cake.  We added another chinese herb dubbed, 'little brown pills' which don't have a strong flavor but require about 4 at a time.  She says these are the ones that help her so will take them with a glass of something other than water.  She went to bed feeling much better.  We have an afternoon date planned for tomorrow if she's up for it.  We appreciate prayers of wellness for our last few weeks here!
