Breast Cancer

I spoke to a women today who is dieing of breast cancer.
She also has renial failure.
She's a Lycopodium for sure but is she so far gone that it would do no
good to give her a remedy.
I'm not an experienced Homeopath that's for sure but I'd like to know
if there is any suggestions or advice regarding her situtation.
She's been on a "Natural Chemo" from some Dr. I have no idea what it
is. It's done no good.
Before that she tried Homeopathy with a Dr. who charged her $2,000.00
because the remedies came from Germany.
Anyone know anything about that?
Such a sad situation I just wish there was something I could try before
she dies.
Thanks For any input
Emily

Hi Emily,
I'll hazard a guess that the homeopath she saw was not practicing
classically ("not what we would call homeopathy!")--since even remedies
from Germany would cost nothing remotely close to $2,000. Actually I
can't imagine what that has to do with the practitioner's cost
anyway... But perhaps this person used one of the multi-remedy
approaches, EAV or some such?

It sounds like the thing to aim for at this point would be simple
palliation--just to help her be more comfortable, help her find peace
before she dies. That can be done (or so I understand--I have never
tried) by finding out what is causing her discomfort, and prescribing
on those symptoms--it won't cure the cancer, but could bring her some
peace. Emotional symptoms? If pain, then get as much specifics as
possible about the type of pain, location, what makes it better or
worse, and use those for prescribing. Use whatever you can get of the
generals--food preferences / aversions; thirst; sensitivities (noise?
light? alone / company? touch? drafts? etc.). Arsenicum and opium are
two to look at--I assume you know the basics of those pictures? But
there are certainly other possibilities.

I really don't know whether palliation is as "easy as it sounds", but I
would think it is definitely worth a try, and look forward to hearing
others' thoughts!

Shannon, I can't mess with palliation. She's on Morphine - it
doesn't matter.
I feel so sad about this. What a wonderful women she is.
Why would a Homeopath charge her $2,000 for a remedy because it was
from Germany? I'd like to know the answer to that.
I know his name - he's in NY.
You know I always think of what Hahmemann taught and that was to
relieve suffering in mankind.
Sometimes everything we do just isn't enough and doesn't work.
She was told that the Homeopath she saw was "the best" and she
couldn't afford to stay with him so now she's dieing.
I don't understand this.
ugh I'm just so upset over this whole thing.

Hello Emily -

I expect a lot of opposition on this, but since she is so far gone I
would suggest starting a rigorous fast NOW. (There are specialists in
fasting who could assist her.)
All the best,

Arista

How many of the very good homeopaths on this list would be
confident in using this modality to treat aggressive cancer. If one
accepted Dr Hamer's hypothesis psychological healing and homeopathy
should go a long way,.
I must admit would be doubtful about the fasting, Best Wishes, Jean

I can only say that I have seen people (in plural, not a rhetorical
one) suffering from terminal cancer come back from the very brink of
death by undergoing a fast.

I had nothing to do with their treatment. (And they didn't know each
other.) But judging by my own experiences with fasting I think I have
an idea of how it might work. After the second or third day without
any food whatsoever my energy levels suddenly increased tenfold, and
remained unusually high until I ended my fast, ten days later.
Whatever reserve of vitality there is in the body, it comes out during
fasting. At least in some people it does.

Obviously, I am not "recommending" it, but it is worth considering.
This poor woman doesn't seem to have many options left.

All the best,

A.

What type of fasting ? Are juices of vegetables acceptable or is intake limited to water?

fasting and very limited diet are the protocols that i keep coming up with.
the johanna budwig diet that uses cottage cheese and flax oil has a solid
history, too.
