I don’t know if this will help, but I will share anyway. Last Wed. I sent my 9 yr. old son to school perfectly fine. By 12:30 he was coughing up a storm and I got a call to come and get him from school. I brought him home and in a couple of hours he had a fever of 102 and was breathing fast with a wheezing sound in each breath. He was not feeling good!!!! I had just heard from my friend that her son started the same way and the doctor diagnosed it as Pnemonia. I wasn’t taking any chances.
I started with Breath, Lime and Marjoram on his chest and back (every couple hours), then I put Melissa and On-Guard up his spine (every couple hours), as well as On-Guard, Oregano, and Peppermint on his feet every hour or so. I also had him drink water with lemon and lime (his favorite). I had the diffuser running in his room as well. I rotated with Eucalyptus and Frankincense and had him breathe it in when he could. Then I would rotate On-Guard and Thyme in the diffuser. Needless to say, it was a very long night! We had just had an adult friend almost die the week before from pneumonia, and I’m already a ‘worry-wart’ as my hubby kindly puts it…so I slept on the floor in his room. I gave in about midnight and gave him some Motrin to try to bring down the fever. NOTHING worked. All during the night he had a 101-102.5 fever! I changed his shirt 4 times during the night from him sweating. I was at least able to control the coughing with the oils.
By the next morning he was much better, but very tired, and still coughing a little. Fever was down. I continued ALL of the above throughout the day. (Poor kid missed his Halloween Carnival!) By 3pm his fever seemed to start to go up again…so I put Peppermint and other oils on him again. At 4:30 he fell asleep – and slept until 8pm! When he woke up – NO FEVER, Hardly any coughing, breathing back to normal….AND energy! Which was a problem, because I was exhausted from being up all night the night before – and now I couldn’t get him to go to sleep until past midnight! He’s been fine ever since. My friend who’s son was diagnosed over 2 weeks ago is still struggling with a cough – and has gone through two antibiotics. I decided to treat it as a VIRAL infection instead of a bacterial – and I really believe the MELISSA saved us from a longer sickness. Staying on top of it throughout the night was key too. It would have been helpful if I could have gotten him to swallow pills – but nevertheless – I am grateful for the oils. I know they worked!

Also, crushing and chopping garlic, putting it in shortening and putting it on the bottom of the feet wrapped in plastic, then socks will work miracles. Mix the oils with the shortening at night, and you've got a winning combo!

You have a strapping 18 years old son who can probably handle these oils like
an adult.
Mix a capsule of equal drops of Oregano, Thyme and Wild Orange, take this capsule
1 every two hours. On the alternate hour put a drop of Frankincense and On Guard
under his tongue. He will tell you its nasty but tell him it will help and just do it!!
Mix some carrier oil with Marjoram, Thyme and Breathe, rub it on his chest and back
and under his nose and across the sinus area (forehead). Also put these same oils
on the bottom of his feet, 2-3 times a day.
Being consistent and aggressive will help you get in front of the problem

My son (18) got pnemonia in the 5th grade and just about every year
now at this time it comes back. His symptoms have started out like a
sinus infection, pressure and conjestion with a cough and a bit of
aches...now today he said it is moving down into his chest...so I feel
like it is headed towards pnemonia again. What would you suggest?
Anything in pill form or just topical and inhaling and how
often...that is what is most difficult for me is how often to use the
oils to really attack the symptoms hard before it gets worse.
