Happy Birthday!Bunsen was a lecturer at Gottingen were he began experimental studies of the (in) solubility of metal salts of arsenious acid. For two years the study continued until his discovery of the use of iron oxide hydrate as a precipiting agent and is still the best known antidote against arsenic poisoning today. As you can imagine these experiments produced many dangerous situations. Bunsen almost killed himself from arsenic poisoning and in another a explosion propelled a glass of sliver into his eye and lost his sight.
Bunsen died August 16, 1899. He was 88 years old.

I am a strong, sexy, intelligent, candid and loving woman who would do anything for her family. I am a mother of two.I have a sarcastic sense of humor,love to read and I am trying to stay positive in a difficult world.This is the place that I will use to perserve my sanity on the path that is called my life.
"Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns what we have into enough, and more. It turns denial into acceptance, chaos to order, confusion to clarity.It can turn a mealinto a feast, a house into a home,a stranger into a friend. Gratitude makes sense of our past, brings peace for today and creates a vision for tomorrow.~Melody Beattie
