Interesting about all the uses of bleach we have read here lately...I had a Quad by-pass in `96, and the wound on my leg from where they removed the "needed parts" was quite large, and slow to heal. I was instructed to mix up a batch of "Dakin`s solution", which was a mixture of bleach, baking soda, and sterile water, to be poured over the wound daily! When I saw "Bleach" on the ingredients list, I had to call the Dr. to make sure it wasn`t a 'typo'! Many uses, if used correctly! Dooks!...john r. & the n.j. gang. john rich <[log in to unmask]> [Posted in FML issue 5105]
