Thank Goodness for Mums (and Day-time Television)

I got a call from my Mum, that went something like this:

'I was watching on some Dr. Show that Vicks VapoRub can help athletes foot...isn't that the same thing as thrush? Why don't you put some on Tesla's feet?!?'

So I did - and this stuff is magic: the Petroleum base protects from excess moisture, and is helping moisturize and heal up her cracked heels, as well as causing the last little remnants of crumbly frog to soften up and crumble out so air can reach everything.

The eucalyptus oil is anti-microbial, so I like it as a poultice too. Several barn friends laughed when they saw me slathering it on "that's right, we forgot all about Vicks!"
