That picture really freaks me out.

I love this article. First, because the doctor quoted has 2 out of 3 of the same names as my sister.

And B, I was just telling Sweeter TODAY to quit blowing his nose.

You must be psychic! It is a weird picture.

Why were you telling him to stop blowing his nose? Were your motives pure, or did you just want him to be quiet?

Heh heh. Nah, (again with the mean accusations!) I was telling him to stop blowing because he has a nasty cold. Nasty cold = stuffed nose = the urge to blow = bloody noses.

I can't abide blood, won't look, won't help. My only solution was "quit blowing." Tis all.

I know you're not mean, Sally. Maybe he was really loud:)

Tell him to use 4-Way saline mist. It helps with the dry air and helps alleviate the congestion naturally. I couldn't live without it.

But if you don't blow your nose, how can you breathe through it? Confused...

Oh, man, saline washes have cured me forever of sinus infections. I used to always catch people's colds, and the cold would ALWAYS mutate into an infection. But since I started washing out my nose instead of just blowing it ... not one sickness in my head.

I've suddenly developed the sniffles.

A nice loud honking blow is just so satisfying!
