bark. “She barks at people, I can only stop her barking when I call her into the house. She is fine with cars coming by. I do not know, why she barks, most of the time her tail wags at the same time. It may be a lack of confidence.’’
The barking is the only thing the owner is worried about and I prescribe one dose of kali bich 10M. One month later I learn she has had another small fit.
April 2016:
She is more content, happier. No more fits. She is playing more in the garden. She is more used to noises; the barking is much better. She is not so worried about things any more.
The only thing that is not perfect is her digestion. The feet are fine: she can walk forever. She had a small fit in May.
August 2016: feedback: enjoys life walks forever, more receptive, no more fits.
June 2018: No more fits. Feet are still fine; the toes are only slight splayed. She has had some teeth extracted in another practice a year ago; she had very bad halitosis. The owner comes to see me because for some time, she has been straining to pass normal stools or she has to walk to be able to pass her stools. Raw food did not suit her well. She still has some digestive issues, cannot always digest well. The hips are fine, no back problems can be found. She is nearly 12 years old now and apart from the digestion, she’s in very good shape. I prescribed Kali bich 6C once per day.
She was subdued the evening after taking the remedy for the first time. Within a few days, the toileting problems were resolved and the digestion improved.
The owner gave the remedy for 3 days.
Dear all,
I was driving home yesterday evening and enjoying a quiet spring evening with a wonderful sunset, and for a moment nothing seemed to have changed.
But a moment later, a new message emerged on the Smartphone about the Covid19 situation. The corona virus pandemic has been a very difficult period for all of us. There's no great loss without some gain. Pandemic helps to understand that our mundane comfort can disappear in a moment, helps to realise that we shouldn't take life for granted, because it's a hard work of previous generations.
When governments around the world are severely restricting people's mobility and imposing stricter frames on our external lives, disrupting our normal living arrangements, it is a hope that we can grow our inner lives a lot more – listen to ourselves and each other, to read, to see and to think more.
While the danger lies somewhere far away on the other side of the planet, it is difficult to imagine that this could affect us directly, that’s why people live lightly. In fact, unknown risks wait for us constantly, but we don’t think about them; for example, a car accident or household hazards.
Covid-19 pandemic scares us with the fact that we are able to identify with the misfortune of its victims, and imagine that the entire normal world could suddenly collapse.
Covid-19 has introduced serious adjustments to our daily
lives, but the flow of our life hasn't stopped. Let us not forget that homeopathy has proved to be an effective medicine in the fight against the epidemic, prophylaxis and acute treatment of such diseases.
Let us not despair, but act – we are able to think pragmatically, to maintain the vigour of life, based on homeopathy – our profession, confidence and belief. Let us use this time to enrich our knowledge and share our experience.
For example read Dr. André Saine publications or listen to his online lectures about homeopathy’s role in epidemics. Dr. André Saine has collected strong evidence in homeopathic literature about the positive role of homeopathy in the treatment of epidemic diseases. “The author has uncovered over 7,000 references addressing this subject. Results obtained by homeopathy during epidemics reveal a very important and clear consistency: a very low mortality rate. This consistency remains, regardless of the physician, time, place or type of epidemical disease, including diseases carrying a very high mortality rate, such as cholera, smallpox, diphtheria, typhoid fever, yellow fever and pneumonia” (A brief overview of the extraordinary success of homeopathy in epidemics Allgemeine Homöopathische Zeitung 262(02): 2-76 March 2017).
Dr. Nancy Malik and Iman Navab have also collected the data about success rate of homeopathic treatment in epidemics and pandemics between 1799 and 1918. Just recall successful homeopathic treatment of the “Spanish
