How to heal a hurting stomach

First of all, pray for healing. Friends who pray are pure gold. Friendship and prayer. God's will be done. Thank you for the positive vibes.
Second, take the morning off whatever you do. By the way, having worked from the age of 17 till now, minus a couple of years as a sahm, it is my firm belief that women should not work.Go to town. Have a creme brulee in the main square. Sip some water and a couple of Zantacs. Then leaf through a magazine you've never seen before. If it is good, then it's an extra bonus.

Then, although you just want to hide in bed and moan and fill your head your dark thoughts, pack your bags and follow some friends across half of the country (or the state, for that matter).
See deserted villages

and mighty mansions.

Then arrive to a small family hotel just before sunset and take a plunge.
Take the road the less travelled.
I am not totally pain free. I shall probably have to go and see the doctor one day soon. But prayer and friendship and emptying the mind of its worries and constant talk, does help. Thank you.
