22. Ivermectin
Thu Aug 7, 2025, 12:45 PM

My next door neighbor was a widow named Luie, really a riot, just a fun and funny person. She was 71 or 72 and had beaten bladder cancer once before. When it came back, people in her church group told her Chemo will kill her and that Ivermectin could cure her. So she told her doctors she wouldn't do Chemo, they plead with her to change her mind, but she was going to pray and take Ivermectin and let the chips fall. She died about 3 months later.

Really miss her. She had mopeds for fun and would cruise through the neighborhood on her moped all the time with just a big smile on her face. She also made an incredible wild mushroom soup.
