Our Friend's Mother Our friend's mother was having a lot of problems with arthritis. She was to the point where she couldn't even pick things up or turn a doorknob. My wife mentioned to our friend that glucosamine and chondrotin can help with arthritis in some cases. Our friend decided to try it with her mother, in a kind of desparation state I guess. It worked. The mother's arthritis disappeared within about a week, so our friend kept it up. Recently, the mother moved into a senior center. She really likes socializing with all the people there. However, the senior center did not follow our friend's instructions to give her mother the glucosamine and chondrotin. The arthritis came back with a vengeance. Our friend tried to convince them to give her mother the minerals, but they initially refused. Our friend finally found a way to get it to her mother each day, and now the arthritis is gone again. The senior center employees are in total denial. "It must have been this or that or that, couldn't have been the glucosamine and chondrotin." Oh, I forgot to mention. Our friend is 67. Her mother is 94. Everyone is doing well. Here's an informative site on glucosamine and arthritis. 11:19:18 AM
