Hi everyone. I want to thank you all for your thoughts and prayers. I am doing much better. The Vitamin C powder to de tox from toxins, other vitamins, apple cinnamon tea, good water, fruit smoothies, etc daily are helping a lot. Much less bone pain and walking without the cane regularly now. I hope all is well for you and I appreciate your support. Take care. Blessings :)
