Lucky, what kind of willow do you use for your willow water? I have
"weeping" and "black".
Nebulizers are commercially available which are used by patients to aid
their breathing, are Medicaid/Medicare re-imbursable, are sold at flea
markets after the demise of the patient and produce excellent mists.
Keep tract of all your smoking/asthmatic/COPD/pesticide user friends and
relatives. The mist produced is cool and just about micron size (has to
be to get deep into the lungs). Doc Lisenby
