ALOE = GOOD

 I recently had an encounter with a critical situation at home, which really changed the way I thought about this prickly-stiff plant.

One night, while handling milk, one of us got burnt pretty bad. We tried all first-aid knowledge, running water, water bath, everything to heal, nut the burn would not go. We were short in home supplies of burn medication, and were really confused and stressed for what to do next. Somewhere in my mind, I had the idea of the soothing nature of Aloe, which I put to use on the particular situation. 

                        On applying the cut leaf on the area, the sticky pulp was literally getting absorbed by the skin. And believe me when I say, that this particular thing you are seeing here, actually treated a second-degree burn without causing any blisters or skin decoloration. 

        That is why I would advise everyone reading this to at least keep this plant with you wherever you live. There are times when such investments do pay off for good...And sorry for such a long post, welcome to October2020.
