[b][green]Hi Everyone
I am new to this forum, so I hope my post is OK.
25 years ago I nearly lost my life due to an autoimmune disorder. Whilst it is still lurking around I have lived through many ups and downs with this illness. Hence why I studied natural therapies. I notice there are a few posts about holistic approach to healing, so I thought I would share my thoughts on this.
Whilst I do believe a holistic approach is necessary to improve health and quality of life, in my case this did not stop me from developing basal cell carcinomas. I used to bake myself in the sun as a kid and hence the damage was done way back before I even knew about safety in the sun.
I had a very deep BCC on the inside of my nose going right down to the corner of my eye. I ended up having to have it cut out. I had tried, aloe vera leaf straight from the plant in my garden, manuka honey (wonderful healing properties), hydrogen peroxide, dmso, and so on. I still had to have it cut out and stitched. Yes, it made my eye look a little pulled in, but I figured it would soften up with an application of aloe vera whole leaf (by the way it did).
1 year later my lovely Dad died and my whole world fell apart. Guess what the BCC came back. So for me, it's not just about holistic medicine, it's also about how I handle stress and grief. How could the bcc came back I asked myself? Well it did big time. I went and checked out different therapies and even Mohs procedure.
The journey I took on finding out about how a plant in my garden could heal my bcc was a beautiful gift to be given....I started applying a sap from a plant in the garden. This time round I tried curaderm, but that was taking too long. So the milky sap from the plant, I dabbed on the huge BCC and within 2 months it was gone and it has never come back. It crusted up and looked pretty angry, but I kept with it, I had nothing to lose.
I have asked my garden nursery here in Sydney Australia and they believe the plant is classified as a weed in gardens worldwide. Here in Australia it is called milkweed. There is a saying that 'for every disorder or dis-ease check out your garden, you may just find something there'
Thanks everyone..... Regards Pikirimy Sydney Australia
