Dear
Mrs. Hsu,
This
letter is to thank you again for your continued support and
help in the nutritional needs for myself and my family. We
have been friends now for over 10 years, I say friends because
you have always been so friendly and interested in my life.
At
about two weeks old, Brian ,my grandson, had a very, very
long week of constant crying (Screaming). I called the pediatrician
and took him in first thing Monday morning. They said it was
probably colic and gave me some medicine to try. Prior to
this he cried a lot but now nothing soothed him; holding,
walking, rocking, nothing worked. I tried the medicine and
it did nothing to help. I took him in again (three weeks)
and they said it was definitely colic, gave me another medication
and said that I could expect this to last three months. I
was really scared. This child was very uncomfortable and he
let everyone know it. With two other children at home, I did
not know how I was going to cope, not to mention go back to
work! I could not leave this baby with anyone. If I could
not cope with the crying, how could I expect someone else
to? Well, after that doctor's appointment I decided I'd better
stock up on ginseng. This was going to be a long three months!
You were in the store that day and we started talking. I didn't
really expect to find anything that would help Brian because
everyone I had talked to said there was no cure for colic.
You recommended acidophilus
and bifidus for him. For the
first two days I tried the doctors medicine (sorry Mrs.Hsu
for doubting you) but that did not work. Then I started with
the acidophilus and bifidus. After two weeks I noticed less
crying. By three weeks he was only fussing in the evenings
and by ten weeks he was a different baby. He is smiling and
everything. Only mothers that have experienced colicky babies
can understand this. At three weeks old I had never even seen
my baby's eyes open. He was either sleeping or crying. Now
Brian is just fine. You would never know he was ever unhappy
or colicky.
Thanks
again Mrs. Hsu for your help. I look forward to many happy
years to come with my three boys and your nutritional advice
and wisdom to help me through!
Your
friend,

S. I also bought a product at your store called Colic Tablets.
These were a combination of herbs that did help to quiet Brian
during a screaming fit, but I didn't have to use many of them
before the acidophilus and bifidus straightened him out.
