Day one: She was so miserable; she was feverish, her throat hurt and she could not eat, her body was covered with the pox sores, and the itching was so intense she was crying, she could not sleep. I gave her ACV and baking soda in water to drink, I sprayed colloidal silver in her throat-ears-nose, also put peroxide in each ear, and let it bubble very well. I kept her fever under control with baby asprin and cold compresses. (I know alot of people are afraid to use asprin, but I come from a big family-12 children, and my mother always used baby asprin, and never lost a child; we are all in our 40's-60's now; I gave asprin to my child, and she is still alive. Oh, and yes my mom is still alive and kicking, at the age of 83.) I tried the oatmeal baths, and they would work for a little while, but did not completely stop it. I gave her a benadryl tablet, and before long the itching was totally gone; and she was able to sleep.
Day Two: Although the itching and fever was now gone, she had swollen lymp nodes behind both ears, and on both sides of her neck, and both tonsils looked like golf balls covered in little white dots. I gave her ACV and baking soda in water to drink, I sprayed colloidal silver in her throat-ears-nose, also put peroxide in each ear, and let it bubble very well. I continued the oatmeal baths (2 x daily) with some epsom salt added to help dry the pox sores. After her bath I sprayed the pox sores with the colloidal silver, and then applied gentian violet to each of the pox with a Qtip; of course by this point, she felt well enough to want too help... She loved her purple polka dots. Before bed I gave her another benadryl so she could sleep without itching.
Day Three: She is up early, very happy, feels good, puts together puzzels, goes out and jumps on the trampoline. (Jumping on the trampoline helps get the lymp nodes flowing.) I repeat the ACV and baking soda with water, colloidal silver treatment in throat-nose-ears, and peroxide in the ears, oatmeal baths with epsom salt. Another benadryl at night.
Day Four: Her first day of kindergarten, and she did't have to miss. She is so excited... When she got in from school, she wanted to re-apply the gentian violet... So I let her. I sprayed her throat-nose-ears with the colloidal silver. She took a regular bath, and did not take the benadryl tonight.
Day Five: Her pox sores have dried up, and shrunk. Her lymp nodes have shrunk, and are barely noticeable. She and her mother go home.
She did not have any permanent scarring.
If you use the gentian violet, it "will stain the skin... But is not permanent;" it fades gradually. If it gets on clothing, floors, countertops, etc. , it can be permanent. Bleach can usually remove it from most things, other than clothes.
Oatmeal Bath
I am now trying Vitamin C and Lysine, had great success with Teds Flu remedy but as she is so young I am not giving her Aspirin. As soon as I saw the red spots I started spraying her with Colloidal Silver, a lot of spots disappeared straight away but some still became blisters, this is day 2 only. I do not know the strength of the Vitamin C, the Naturopath says it is very strong as it is not synthetic but naturally derived and the Lysine I can't find a strength either?

Peppermint Oil
★★★★★
Have respect when using this oil, (as it is very potent) and be careful not to get any near your eyes or face, as it burns! (I can tell you this from personal experience!) Flush with plenty of water should this happen. However, reduced down to a quarter of its strength, it makes a formidable ally against chicken pox itching and scratching!
