Host: What if I don t see any improvement in my child?

Ronald Turner: Well, any improvements that you see with these treatments is going to be temporary anyway and so, really the thing that s going to cure your child of their common cold is time and so, really all you are doing with any of these treatments is trying to make your child more comfortable, until they recover on their own.
