All the many stories that have shaped the man known as Grandpa Hill, Donald, Don, or simply Silly Grandpa

  • Why Did I Say That about Her Baby?

    Why Did I Say That about Her Baby?

    Julia was trying to start a family and she had just found out about another miscarriage. Inexplicably Grandpa Hill (Don) thought her baby was still alive, and told her what he thought.  Julia needed to hear that, and so did her baby.

    To this day Grandpa Hill doesn’t know why he said that, but he did say it.  Sometimes we don’t say what what we know we should, but what an impact there can be when we do.

    This story changed Julia and her family.  This story changed Grandpa Hill and his family.  It is Grandpa’s hope that this story will change you and your family.  (The story is as true as Grandpa Hill can remember it.  Names have been changed.)

  • Quest for Ivermectin

    Quest for Ivermectin

    Grandpa Hill is on a Quest for Ivermectin, he calls it his chopper stopper because of how Ivermectin is reported to stop the “chopping” effects in the replication or growing process of viruses.  So He launches his plan to prevent Covid and to be prepared to do early treatment of COVID if his prevention plan fails, with Ivermectin. Grandpa Hill figured Ivermectin would help him without hurting him, so he launched his quest. That key part of his plan is to slow the replication of any virus long enough for his immune system to do its work.

    Grandpa Hill is highly supportive of his new pharmacy, Keystone Pharmacy in New Alexandria PA. While his supplier of Ivermectin is Allgenericmedicine.com.  They are not highly rated on the internet, but so far he has had no problems with his orders.

    Who is this Grandpa Hill?

    Grandpa Hill is 64 years old.  He is an engineer, a husband, a dad, a grandfather.  He is not a doctor just a good thinker.  Evaluating his options and the risks, Grandpa Hill tends to give the highest credence to doctors that are doctoring; An instance is the FLCCC Alliance and their prevention and early treatment protocols.   If you decide, as he did, to use the “chopper stopper” be aware there are issues with pregnancy and Ivermectin; So be sure to get the dosage right for your weight and circumstances.

    As he learns more about what is going on in his body Grandpa Hill thinks, takes effective action, laughs and lives.

    Sources:

    A test and treat program in Uttar Pradesh reported Ivermectin especially effective (thedesertreview.com) .  Many countries and large metro areas were getting similar positive responses with the use of Ivermectin.  YouTubers Dr. John Campbell and Dr. Been, explained how Ivermectin is a protease inhibitor, the culprit chopper, hence: CHOPPER STOPPER.

  • Vitamin D for Me, and Mary Lee

    Vitamin D for Me, and Mary Lee

    In Vitamin D for me and Mary Lee, Grandpa Hill tells the true story about “discovering” Vitamin D3 and its effect on his immune system. As he takes D3 and more D3 he studies and learns to take K2 with the D3. His immune system seems stronger and he doesn’t get Covid-19.

    In the beginning D3 is simply something that might help and won’t hurt, but as the pandemic proceeds and Grandpa learned more, he ponders the possibility that because adequate D3 is a challenge for those with the Covid comorbidities of old age, diabetes, obesity, hypertension, and dark skin that maybe D3 is a bigger deal than he ever realized. 

    Here are the two places for information on the internet:  Dr. John Campbell youtube videos Vitamin D, Strong evidence from Israel and Vitamin D levels advised; and, the Dark Horse Podcast, Rays of hope, Covid and Vitamin Dhttps://open.spotify.com/episode/4BXJgl3LYVez6CrDTbkwOl.

    Grandpa Hill hopes that listeners will be intrigued, study, consult, and decide for themselves whether to use D3 for preventing serious viral infections.  After thinking about it, act effectively to improve your health, laugh and live.

  • Lots of Bunnies

    Lots of Bunnies

    Hide in seek is a very fun game, which everyone loves to play. Hide the bunny is also a very fun game, except when it is not.

    In Lots of Bunnies Grandpa Hill tells the true story, as best he can recall, how a bunny died because it could not breathe.  A few days later a little girl lived because Gerry, Grandpa’s brother, kept her from hiding in a refrigerator where she wouldn’t have been able to breathe.

    Gorf is sad about the bunny.  Marshmallow gets Gorf to see how important it was for Gerry to learn this lesson:  Air is needed to breathe.  Never hide yourself or anything living where it can’t breathe.
