assuming it is ok to go ahead. The images are located here:

The first image shows the tumour a few weeks prior to starting
'homeopathic' treatment - I use the term homeopathic loosely as I was
'sold' this treatment as homeopathic before I knew any better. The
'homeopath' - if you could call him that - piled in multiple remedies
(it is a few years ago but I seem to recall it was in the region of
about ten remedies), dry dose, daily. After this image was taken the
tumour started to break down and became a horrible gory mess that
continually leaked blood - unfortunately I don't have a photograph of it
at that stage. I then started treatment. Within eight weeks of
commencing treatment the tumour had nearly gone and went on to disappear
completely.
Though the tumour disappeared I would consider what happened to be
suppression, not cure, as the pig then developed major joint problems
which ultimately led to him being put to sleep. We live and learn and
sometimes we learn at our animals' expense.
It would be a great PR exercise and help spread the message far and wide
if homeopaths could record cases photographically. A photograph will
hook someone's interest where just a title to an article might not have
the same effect. Journalists know how important photographs are to gain
peoples attention; that is why magazines and newspapers are full of
them. We shouldn't be spending our time arguing with, or trying to
convince, the scientific community - it is just wasted energy. When
Green and Blacks produced their organic chocolate bars, they didn't
start arguing with Cadbury's as to whether or not their product was
superior to Cadbury's chocolate bars; they marketed it to the public:
the consumer - Cadbury's were irrelevant as they weren't buying the bars
(though eventually they did buy the company). What homeopathy really
needs is good marketing that doesn't go over the heads of the general
public; it needs to be in layman's terms, not scientific demonstrations
of epigenetics that makes most of the general public switch off.
