Hi Rainerhans,
What a terrible time your poor husband had and for so long! But what a miracle those leeches turned out to be! I didn't realize that using leeches really worked! I've read many novels written in the 1800's and 1700's where they did use leeches when someone was very ill. But I never believed that they really worked! I thought it was just a remedy and about all they had to work with in those days. It's good to know how well things turned out for your husband with the leeches!
How nice you moved to Alaska! I live in Washington State and have only been to Alaska once; Kodiak. It was just beautiful! That was some years ago but from what I've read Alaska has remained pretty much the same.
Thanks for telling us about the leeches!

Yes! I always try natural methods before I resort to Western medicine. Your story is very inspiring. I am using Genuine Essiac Tea right now, which has a lot of research behind it, mostly for cancer. Cudos to you for stretching outside our traditional medicines to find ways to heal. There are so many options and what is hardest for me is that there are very few practitioners who can "prescribe" holistic/homeopathic options, and no insurance support, even though, if they would embrace it and support it finincially, it would save money.
