We intervene with drugs too soon

We do not give our own healing mechanism enough time to work. When the children were little and had an ear or throat infection, I did not take them to the Drs for a course of antibiotics as I was affraid that they would eventually become immune to them, if there was a deteoration in their health within 48 hrs I would have taken them. But controling their temperature with calpol over the next few hours, this was never neccessary. We pannick too soon and reach for the meds, when in fact our bodies has its own healing capabilities.
