Homoeopathy: How it works
By Kuldip Dhiman
A HIGHLY
experienced Chicago doctor was watching over his dear
wife who was terminally ill. As the doctor was sure his
wife would barely survive a day or two, he decided to
fulfil her last wish. When everything failed to cure her,
she had asked him
to bring in a homoeopath. Although the doctor was one of
the bitterest critics of homoeopathy, he very reluctantly
sent for one Dr Phelan who lived nearby. On his arrival,
Dr Phelan began to ask various questions about the
patients earlier diseases, family history of
disease, dreams, emotional state and so on. The husband
could barely control his laughter: Why
is this fool asking such stupid questions? What has my
wifes past diseases, her dreams, her emotional
state got to do with her present condition? The
homoeopath gave the patient one dose, and then asked her
husband to repeat the dose after two hours. The
patients husband, who was at the time translating a
medical treatise, reluctantly agreed. After two hours,
when he went into his wifes chamber to administer
the second dose, he was astonished to see that she was
blissfully asleep. The next day, the patient who had not
eaten for days, asked for water, and later asked for
something to eat. And within a few days she was a healthy
person again.
