Homeopathic relief

[Jean Doherty]

Was thinking that the lack of antibiotics after all the injuries and amputations not to mention the fear and grief suffered really called for homeopathic assistance and thought would explore this site.

Any one know about it, Jean

[Tanya Marquette]

yes, know a little bit.
they have been around for quite a few years now. they are like
doctors without borders but using homeopathy. they go into areas
and work as they can get access. i believe they were in pacific during
that horrible tsunami a couple of years ago.
years ago i met a man, john melchnik? who had worked with them and
did some presenting at conferences. i believe they are legit.

Dr. Luc and a couple of naturopathic doctors/professors (primarily homeopaths) from Southwest College of Naturopathic Medicine in Scottsdale, AZ went out to Sri Lanka, I believe it was, in the aftermath of the tsunami. Dr. Luc’s stories were fascinating; he told some to Whole Health Now’s broadcast interview. The one I will never forget was his potentizing Bryonia on the spot to use when setting the arm of an elderly woman from the country without anesthesia. The arm had been broken for a couple of days, much like the stories from Haiti. Apparently it worked well. As far as I know, they went under the auspices of Homeopaths without Borders. You have only to look at the board of directors to know it’s legit. Teresa (Northern VA)

I am so glad you mentioned HwithoutB, Jean and gave the link. I was just about to donate to conventional orthopedic doctors. I hope we hear what HwithoutB is able to do in Haiti. It was hard for the homeopaths to work in Sri Lanka or wherever it was they went after the tsunami, I believe, homeopathy being unknown and not accepted. Teresa (Northern VA)

Yes, at centres here for bush fire relief I could not get through red tape and was able to do very little.
Avaaz a politically active organization suggested giving aid to local groups through them.
Have given H without B contacts suggested below as they might be a way for Homeopaths to gain access.
Just consumed by thought that Homeopathy is so badly needed, Jean

Haitians are urgently appealing to the world for help -- we’re already in touch with strong local organisations mobilising community-based relief efforts. Let’s send a worldwide wave of donations to the front lines, to save lives now and help people recover and rebuild. Avaaz will work partners to make sure the help reaches those who need it most.

Based on expert advice from leading humanitarian NGOs who have been working in Haiti for over 30 years, we'll offer donations to trusted local organizations, including:

1. Honor and Respect for Bel Air, a big community-based network in Haiti’s capital Port-au-Prince, which is also supported by our friends at the respected Brazilian NGO Viva Rio
2. Coordination Régionale des Organisations de Sud-Est (CROSE), which brings together some of the most active community groups in the South of Haiti where the earthquake struck hardest. These groups include: women's groups, schools networks and local cooperatives

In 2008, Avaaz members donated over $2 million for Burmese monks to respond to the devastating Cyclone Nargis. Our money made an incredible difference there -- because it went directly to local people on the front lines of the aid effort. cal people through them
