I agree, great story and I am sure, based in reality. But, I like to pass on these types of stories to my non-cs-believing friends and they jump on any inaccuracies, as my M.D. friend did. I had ptomaine once and looking back, sure could have used cs if it had been available.

I have no doubt of that, botulism cannot even grow in meat that is not totally sealed from the air, and would almost certainly caused very quick death. What they got was almost certainly salmonella, or ptomaine poisoning. I have found these respond very nicely to CS. But that doesn't diminish the impact of the story. Marshall How can you sate "You need to get your head out of your ass"and then " Bless you, Bob Lee", they don't seem to go together.I sent your story to a doctor (M.D.) friend who believes in alternativemeans for health and healing and he stated "These guys have no clue about botulism....check this out"?Ane HE sent me the medical page link to botulism. Did you check out the link? Are you calling thatinformation page BS?At my age, and in accordance with my personal belief system ( I don't judge), I wouldn't dare to callanyone, let alone an ex- Navy seal, a liar unless both of my Special Ops son-in-laws were nearby to protect me (joke).Sorry, didn't mean to offend.John
