很多人都知道洋葱的药用价值很高，比如说，洋葱能提神健体，杀菌，降血压，消血脂，抗癌； 还具有止咳、驱虫、下泻等作用。这些都跟吃有关。自古以来人们通过吃洋葱来强身治病。你有没有听说过只把洋葱放在房间里就可以预防甚至战胜流感保持家人健康呢？请看下面这篇文章。我衷心祝愿您一家人健康平安。Toronto Shawn.
当流感肆虐时洋葱可以保护您一家人健康平安
In 1919. When the flu killed 40 million people, there was this doctor that visited the many farmers to see if he could help them combat the flu. Many of the farmers and their family had contracted it, and many died.
1919年，當流感造成了四千萬人死亡時，有一位醫生到各地農場去探視，看是否可以幫助人們戰勝流感。很多農民和他們家庭感染了流感，很多人因此而死亡。
The doctor came upon this one farmer, and to his surprise, everyone was very healthy.
這位醫生來到一家人家。出乎預料，這家的每一個人都非常健康。
When the doctor asked what the farmer was doing that was different, the wife replied that she had placed an unpeeled onion in a dish in the rooms of the home (probably only two rooms back then).
醫生詢問這家的做法與其他人家有何不同，這家的妻子說她在家里的每一個房間（那時大概也就是兩間吧）里放置了一顆沒有剝皮的洋蔥。
The doctor couldn't believe it, and asked if he could have one of the onions, and place it under the microscope.
醫生無法置信，因此就問是否可以要一顆洋蔥以便放在顯微鏡下觀察觀察。
She gave him one, and when he did this, he did find the flu virus in the onion.
她給了他一顆。醫生觀察時真的在洋蔥上發現了流感病菌。
It obviously absorbed the bacteria, therefore keeping the family healthy.
顯然，洋蔥吸收了病菌，因此讓這家人保持健康。
Now, I heard this story from my hairdresser in Arizona.
如今，我從亞利桑那州我的理發師那里聽到類似的故事。
She said that several years ago, many of her employees were coming down with the flu, and so were many of her customers.
她說幾年前她的很多雇員感染流感，她的很多顧客也是如此。
The next year, she placed several bowls with onions around in her shop.. To her surprise, none of her staff got sick. It must work . . .
次年，她在她的理發店里放了幾個果盤，里面放了一些洋蔥。令她吃驚的是，她的員工沒有一個生病的。看來洋蔥真的起作用…
(And no, she is not in the onion business.)
（真的，她并不做洋蔥的生意。）
The moral of the story is, buy some onions and place them in bowls around your home.
故事的核心是，買一些洋蔥吧，把它們擺放在你的家里的果盤里。
If you work at a desk, place one or two in your office, or under your desk, or even on top somewhere.
如果你是坐辦公室的，在你的辦公室里，或者辦公桌下面，或者在柜子頂部放置幾顆洋蔥吧。
Try it and see what happens. We did it last year, and we never got the flu. If this helps you and your loved ones from getting sick, all the better.
試試看效果怎么樣。我們去年做了，沒有人得流感。 如果這樣做可以幫助你和你所愛的人不感冒，那就太好了。
If you do get the flu, it just might be a mild case..
如果你仍然得了感冒，也許會是比較輕微的癥狀。
Whatever, what have you to lose? Just a few bucks on onions!
不管結果如何，你又會有什么損失呢？ 除了幾顆洋蔥之外！
Now there is a P. S. to this for I sent it to a friend in Oregon who regularly contributes material to me on health issues.
下面是后續。我把這個送給我在奧爾良的朋友，她經常給我一些健康方面的建議。
She replied with this most interesting experience about onions:I don't know about the farmer’s story, but I do know that I contracted pneumonia, and needless to say I was very ill.
她回復說了關于洋蔥的最有趣的實驗： 我不知道那個農民的故事，但是我知道我得了肺炎。不用說，我病的不輕。
I came across an article that said to cut both ends off an onion, put one end on a fork, and then place the forked end into an empty jar, placing the jar next to the sick patient at night.
我讀到一篇文章，建議把洋蔥的兩頭切掉，插在叉子上，然后把叉子放在花瓶里，晚上放在病人身旁。
It said the onion would be black in the morning from the germs. 據說，洋蔥會因為病菌而在次日清晨變黑。
Sure enough, it happened just like that. The onion was a mess, and I began to feel better.
果然，事情跟說的完全一樣。 洋蔥看起來糟透了，但我卻開始好起來。
Another thing I read in the article was that onions and garlic placed around the room saved many from the black plague years ago.
那篇文章還談到放在屋子里的洋蔥和大蒜在多年前的黑死病中救了很多人的命。

中风征兆 -- 请记住STR
有个朋友，在一次烤肉聚会当中绊倒了，摔了一跤，旁边的朋友建议找医护人员，但她很确定自己没事，
只是穿了新鞋被砖块绊了一下罢了。
她还有点危危颤颤站立不稳的时候，朋友们帮她清洗干净，又为她盛了一盘食物，她就跟着大家一起享受。
她的先生后来打电话通知大家，她被送到医院，傍晚六点，就过世了，原因是她在烤肉聚餐的时候中风。
如果他们懂得辨识中风的症兆，她现在也许还跟我们在一起。
有些人不会死，但结局处于无助无望的景况中。
只需要花一分钟的时间读完这篇文章，脑神经外科医师说，如果他能在三小时之内接触到中风患者，他就可以将中风的后果完全扭转过来。
诀窍就是辨识诊断出中风的问题，并让病患在三小时之内接受医疗，而这是很难的。
辨识中风!
感谢上帝让我们记住 STR 三步骤，请阅读并学习 !
有时候中风的症兆很难辨认，不幸的是，缺乏警觉就会带来灾难。
辨认不出中风的征兆，中风患者就会严重脑伤。
医生说，旁人只要问三个简单的问题，就可以辨识中风：
S ： (smile) 要求患者笑一下
T ： (talk) 要求患者说一句简单的句子 （要有条理，有连贯性），例如：今天天气晴朗。
R ： (raise) 要求患者举起双手
注意：
另外一项中风症兆 是： 要求患者伸出舌头 ，
如果舌头「弯曲」或偏向一边，那也是中风的征兆 。
上面四个动作，患者如果有 任何一个动作做不来 ，
就要立刻打 911 ！！！并且把症状描述给接线者听。
心脏科医师说，收到这封电函的人，若能将它转寄给 10 个人，就至少可以救一条命。
中風是什么？
維基百科，自由的百科全書
中风是由于脑部供血液受阻而迅速发展的脑功能损失。这可因血栓或栓塞所造成的缺血（缺乏血液供应），或因出血。在过去，中风被称为脑血管意外或CVA，但现在通用「中风」。
中风属于急症，可造成永久性神经损害，如果不及时诊断和治疗可造成并发症和死亡。在美国，中风是第三大死因，在 美国和欧洲它是导致成人残疾的首因。在世界各地中风是第2大死因，并可能很快成为死亡的首要原因。中风的危险因素包括高龄，高血压，前中风史或短暂性脑缺血发作（TIA），糖尿病，高胆固醇，抽烟，心房颤动。高血压是中风最重要的危险因素变量[1]。

《那双看不见的手》
Toronto Shawn 特别推荐 《那双看不见的手》
虽不见祢，触不到祢，
但是我知，祢正在对我低语。
哦！主耶稣，哦！主耶稣，
我深知道祢一直就在这里。
是祢的手，钉痕的手，
重新抚慰我那破碎的心田。
是祢声音，温柔话语，
再度填满我心灵中的饥渴。
几年前亲眼见过台湾六龟原住民育幼院少年儿童合唱团巡回演唱， 也亲耳听过几个少男少女的见证，感人至深，久久不忘。现在有了自己的博客，赶紧向大家分享推荐。
以下摘录自荒漠甘泉乐侣有声书网站
许多时候我们信心不足，一再要求神给我们凭据，使我们可以清楚祂的旨意。但是我们祇要信赖神的话语，确信那双看不见的手一直扶持着，就该没有疑惧了。 这首诗歌的作者，无法考证，祇知它是台湾原住民的诗歌，由余锦福译成国语。 词句和旋律虽很简单，却是那么地撼人心弦。
自1998年夏，寇顺举牧师（David S.J.Kou，1929 - ）率领台湾六龟山地育幼院少年儿童合唱团来美巡回演唱后，这首歌就不胫而走，传遍了华人教会与团契，成为许多人的至爱。 试想我们一生中不知有多少时，被那双看不见的手抚慰，扶持！
六龟山地育幼院，座落在台湾高雄县六龟乡偏僻山区。 四十多年前，杨煦牧师和师母本乎基督的爱，幼吾幼以及人之幼，从收养一个山胞的哑女开始，在这深山中为原住民的孤儿创立了这个家。
这些年来杨牧师全家，胼手抵足，开荒耕种，饲养牲畜，筚路蓝缕，自给自足，已有六百多位孤儿和弃婴在此渡过他们的童年。故总统蒋经国曾六度亲临探视孤儿，引起了社会的关怀与资助。
山中纷纷传出了许多传奇。 诸如无手的杨恩典成了一位卓越的脚画家，她将画展义卖所得，回馈给抚养她茁长的六龟山地育幼院。 院童中也有成为体育选手，也有在电视上歌唱比赛夺魁，大专联考的状元。

THREW OUT and FOUND
Last Week I threw out worrying, it was getting old and in the way.
It kept me from being me; I couldn't do things God's way.
I threw out a book on MY PAST
(Didn't have time to read it anyway).
Replaced it with NEW GOALS, started reading it today.
I threw out hate and bad memories,
(Remember how I treasured them so)?
Got me a NEW PHILOSOPHY too, threw out the one from long ago.
Brought in some new books too, called I CAN, I WILL, and I MUST.
Threw out I might, I think and I ought.
WOW, you should've seen the dust.
I ran across an OLD FRIEND, I hadn't talked to in a while.
His name is GOD the Father, and I really like His style.
He helped me to do some cleaning and added some things Himself.
Like PRAYER, HOPE, FAITH and LOVE,
Yes... I placed them right on the shelf.
I picked up this special thing and placed it at the front door.
I FOUND IT- it's called PEACE. Nothing gets me down anymore.
Yes, I've got my house looking nice.
Looks good around the place.
For things like Worry and Trouble there just isn't any space.
It's good to do a little house cleaning,
Get rid of the things on the shelf.
It sure makes things brighter; maybe you should TRY IT YOURSELF.
BE BLESSED AND BE A BLESSING TO SOMEONE ELSE! !!!
May the Lord open the windows of heaven and pour you out a blessing that
you will not have room enough to receive it all.
.
May the Lord bless you exceedingly abundantly above all you could ever
hope for.
Take 60 seconds & Bless someone!
Keep the Faith!!!
