I am cheating. I just published this on Examiner.com.
The secret Shreveport
A secret path through a hidden forest along a forgotten river exists in the eye of Shreveport. Surrounded by Youree Drive, Shreveport-Barksdale Highway, Clyde Fant Parkway, and Stoner Avenue, the Coates Bluff Trail is the calm center of an urban storm.
The Coates Bluff Trail can be accessed by one of three sites (assuming you need to park a car): Viking Drive at Valencia Recreation Center, East Merrick Street across from Hopewell Baptist Church, and Sykes Street next to The Montessori School for Shreveport. The trail, sometimes called Coates Bluff Greenway, Coates Bluff Nature Trail, and Coates Bluff History and Nature Trail, is on city property and is maintained by the nonprofit organization A Better Shreveport.
The Coates Bluff Trail is a spectacular place to bird watch, bicycle, and hike, but the intrigue of this buried treasure is that it might actually have buried treasure! This forested land, bluff, and bayou fragment along the city’s sewer line greeted the Freeman and Custis Expedition, Henry Miller Shreve, and Jefferson Davis as they traveled north via the Red River. All of Shreveport’s early settlers – as well as untold indigenous peoples here before them – touched this little piece of land. I know of one cemetery clutching the edge of the slope behind Stoner Hill Elementary School... and of one Oldsmobile from the early 1980s enveloped in cottonwoods behind Caddo Magnet High School. What other secrets does the Coates Bluff Trail keep?

Only in Sleezeport do they celebrate a nature trail with an old junked car on it. Gotta love Sleezeport!
At twentythree, I was diagnosed with hsv2. After the initial outbreak, I was symptom free for nearly twenty years. However, in my early fourty, I began experiencing regular outbreaks along with heightened forgetfulness and anxiety. Alongside these issues, I faced low energy, reduced muscle mass, leg weakness, cramps, and nausea, which all seemed to appear at the same time.
Despite my efforts with antiviral medications, they did not work well for me. I tried avoiding high arginine foods, took lysine, garlic supplements, and multivitamins, and even underwent Hormone Replacement Therapy, but nothing provided relief. My situation turned into a living nightmare.
April 2024 became a turning point in my life when I discovered Dr Utu Herbal Cure. Initially skeptical, I found a forum where individuals shared positive testimonials about this remarkable traditional African herbal doctor. They provided an email to reach him, and I decided to contact Dr Utu for assistance with my condition.
Upon reaching out, I filled out a form detailing my situation as he requested. Dr Utu assured me that I would be fine and prepared a herbal cure for me, which I followed diligently. Even before completing the treatment, I began to feel revitalized. I noticed a profound restoration in my overall health. During this time, all my symptoms disappeared, which I promptly reported to Dr Utu. He encouraged me to finish the treatment.
After completing the treatment, I felt compelled to take a herpes test for my peace of mind. When the results came back, I was overjoyed to learn that I tested negative for both hsv1 and hsv2. I am now completely cured and living a vibrant, fulfilling life free from medication.

I got an infection called HSV2 in my eye and mouth from semen. It was a big surprise because I didn't know it could spread that way. I had a lot of pain and a rash in my right eye and mouth for two weeks. I thought it might be herpes, so I got tested and found out I had HSV2.
I started taking lysine and other supplements, but not valtrex because I heard it could make my outbreaks worse if I stopped taking it. After a month, I also used eye drops, painkillers, and other treatments to prevent blindness. I tried everything I could for two years, but nothing really helped. I was worried about losing my eyesight and hearing because I heard herpes can spread from the eye to the ears.
The thought of losing my eye and hearing was really scary, and it was starting to affect my mental health. I tried to stay positive and went to seminars and other events to help my mental health. One day, someone I called Godsent saw my sores and realized they were herpes. She told me about a herbal cure called Dr Utu Herbal Cure that had helped her when she was in a similar situation. She gave me Dr. Utu email address:

I wrote to Dr. Utu, and he told me his treatment would get rid of the herpes forever. I decided to try it because I was so worried about my mental health. He gave me a four week herbal treatment plan, and after following it, I felt better. I got tested again to make sure, and the results were negative. Now I can live my life without worrying about losing my eyesight or hearing.
I no longer feel depressed or anxious, and I'm really happy with Dr. Utu's Herbal Cure. It has helped me get my life back.
