This stretches the esophagus a bit. Usually people find that one side works better for them than the other. <br />This technique was researched by a university hospital in Calgary working with children who have cystic Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1905173831662671321.post-92015287492746611072014-05-17T15:53:03.568-04:002014-05-17T15:53:03.568-04:00Anonymous, if only my mother would eat applesauce!...Anonymous, if only my mother would eat applesauce!Charlestongirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08269794937743797142noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1905173831662671321.post-73561483086666114142014-05-17T15:52:17.524-04:002014-05-17T15:52:17.524-04:00Roxymisha, banks, insurance companies, they are al...Roxymisha, banks, insurance companies, they are all the same. They claim they sent something. That often means they paid a bulk mailer to do it. Oftentimes, those pieces go astray, stick to each other (I've receive others' mail), or otherwise don't make it.

Serums will work too. Just use something.<br /><br />Most of the time, eye creams are formulated so they will not creep into your eyes (which causes burning and redness).

But in our litigious society, car insurance is a necessary evil so all we can do is keep paying the premiums and hope we never have to file a claim.

I can totally relate to your woes about not receiving mail from your insurance company.

Oh we got notified alright. We got a letter, we got a phone call, we got an email. Seems they decided after the fact that we were to close to our canyon which was a fire risk so we didn't deserve such a low premium.

I'm pretty sure that your insurance company has to send you written notice (possibly even via certified mail) before they can cancel your insurance policy. They sound terrible to work with.
