Thanks alot.

Keep the OS going past the antibiotic. We MUST break this habit.

Please emphasize the fact that he is receiving benefit from homeopathy and ignore the antibiotic in conversation.

Dear Sabra, i am here and giving son OS regularly. he is doing well.

I also bought for myself a materia medica by borriks to read due to the increasing interest in homeopathy.

Do take care. Will keep you updated regularly on son's progres.

Thanks alot for inquiring.

Dear Sabra,

2 days back son got the bed wet probably during the mid night or very early in the morning. He has been doing so some time back as well , a year back and before....

Rest is all well. One thing i didnot mention earlier is that I see when he ever cries fort some reason, he begins to cough which is dry and it then gives a rise to his throat infection.

Dear Sabra,

Today while playing he got hit on his forehead. it was a half inch cut, good enough for a stitch, but doc said there is strip which also heals like stitch, not leaving the scar. there is swelling as well.

Is there any remedy u would suggest he should take for pain if any and for fast healing.

Regards

lu

Hi Lu, sorry, server down since friday. I was in a tizzy to get it back. Called everyone I knew and finally one friend got it back on for me. I am not a comp geek! I know very little about how to fix my own computer.

Keep Arnica 200X around for your boy. There will always be a need for it. One dose usually.

Bumps like this heal well. Remember, we don't want him to think there are magic pills for every little thing. He must realize he will heal naturally in many things.

Didn't know about the bed wetting. This may be hidden emotions. Will take time to know.

He is old enough to take care of his own wet bed and clothing. It can become his responsibility to strip, put to be washed or wash himself if you have a washer, and then remake his own bed.

This is not punishment, this is taking responsibility for his actions instead of expecting to be waited on. Please use the matter of fact, easy going attitude with this. No blame/judgment.

Give him cinnamon toast for breakfast or as a treat. Half cinnamon, half sugar on buttered toast. Helped my youngest. I have no idea why.

The OS should take care of many things about this child.

As he stablizes, a new remedy may present itself. We are working to improve many years on allopathic meds. Will take time.

Blessings, Sabra

Dear Sabra,

Keeping you updated...Son is doing well.

just aksing if he should be allowed to have ice creams and warm soft drinks just occasionally.

I am giving him OS regularly.

Regards

Lu.

Dear Lu,
Seems that you may use this as a positive reward.

Find some good reason for the present of ice cream. Cooperation in activities. A night with a dry bed. Things that would make an impression of approval. Your attitude of approval of his maturity. Seek out things you can compliment in a quiet manner with a smile.

I am not really into "rewarding" children. It seems incorrect, but sometimes when we are trying to change/begin new/old habits, this is a good way until he is more cooperative in a happy manner.

I would suggest never again having soft drinks....IF you mean things like coke/pepsi. If you mean other things like homemade lemonaid etc, this is preferable. Try to keep control on the body until he becomes more mature and begins making his own choices. You won't have as much control.

Sodas have man made sugars with additives that are very bad for the body. Also any soda with the slightest color; the color is made with wheat.

Even juices off the shelf are so full of sugar and additives. I have been to an orange juice factory. It was disgusting. It dripped everywhere. I felt like I was standing in a oj wet sink.

Maltodextrin is wheat. American Soy Sauce is Wheat. Carmel Color is now wheat. These are the things that, when one has a habit of drinking sodas, becomes an irritant to the body.

Encourage liking fresh fruits and eating things instead of drinking juices. Encourage a lot of water intake. (except at night. My youngest couldn't have watermelon after 2pm. Had to have time to get rid of it)

If he is agreeable, this may be a good time to begin Vit C tablets. But, he must chew them up. They are VERY sour. He may like the sour like children today, or may get used to it. The chewing gets the Vit C all in the throat and sinus before swallowing. Get 250mg Vit C and give 1 in am/pm. (500mg per day)

Zink is a good healer also. One needs much less of Zink. Much lower mg and only 2 or 3 tabs per day.

Liquid Calcium (squishy tabs) is another suggestion. Try to find someone there that does muscle testing. It is easy and will tell you which brand of vit to get for your son. Then it will benefit instead of wasting your money.

If you do not find someone in the health store that knows this, run your hand down the shelf and trust yourself to pick out one that seems to "call" to you.

Have your son "bite" the Zink tablets. They do not have to be chewed like the Vit C. One just breaks them to facilitate better digestion. Calcium at night to help better sleep. (no biting if liquid tabs)

I have lost track how much of the OS you are giving your son. Let me know?

Blessings, Sabra

Dear Sabra, thanks alot for such a detailed reply. How do you manage to write so much...I mean you equally reply to all with all the details you have, and you must get time for this. YOU ARE JUST GREAT and deserve a lot of well wishes.

He is already taking Vit C but not so regularly. I will get zinc and Calcium too.

I try to avoid giving him soft drinks like pepsi/7up but there are occasions when all the children are having it, so let him have white drink and that also warm. never a chilled drink.

I asked for ice cream if there is a posibility that it could irritate his infection.

I am giving him OS three times daily. Filled a bottle one third with water and 2/3 drops of OS in it. then from that bottle give him a sip three times daily.

Will keep you updated.

Best Regards

Lu.

The reason I asked is because now it is time to "trick" the mind/body.

Without saying a word to anyone, make up another identical bottle of water. Mark it just like the last one you are now using. DO NOT put any remedy into it. Put some sort of distinguishing mark, maybe on the label as if you were careless with the marker.

If the remedy bottle is in the rif, then both have to be in rif. If your son asks Q about two bottles, reply that the new one is "ready" when needed.

Make the liquid even in the bottles by filling up the remedy bottle with water (shake well). So now both have the same appearance except your secret mark.

Once per day give the unmedicated bottle. The other two times give the remedy bottle.

In another week give two doses of the unmedicated bottle and only one of the remedy bottle. Do this for another week. Then cut the remedy bottle to 3X per week.

The mind/body of your son will respond as if all is medicated. One can only do this with children and people that depend on someone else to do it for them. Never tell, it is a matter of trust. Sometimes deception is a teaching of trust in the case of the sub-conscious mind. But to tell will destroy the trust of the conscious ego.

We will be talking and keeping an eye on symptoms.

As he takes more of the C and expects to be well, His sub-conscious will cooperate in his favor.

It is like when my 2 year old son used to wake up from his nap crying piteously. I would say "oh, you need a cool drink of water after a nap." I said it everyday while offering the water. Within a few days he began to awaken in a good mood ready for the water. Positive programing.

Your son is too old to go along with this at this time. He already has so many pre-conceived ideas in his mind (s).

After this is all over, he will be more ready for more positive speaking habits.

When we reach a position when he is only getting water and no remedy, then you will actually ask him if he is ready to give it up, or wishes to remain on the "remedy" a little longer.

The benefit of making his own choice will be a positive program in his sub-conscious mind.

Blessings, Sabra

Dear Sabra,
hi! i understood your reply.

but please note that he doesnt really care to ask what he is being given. If it had been just with subconcious , he should have been better now as he has always been given either homeo or alo medicines and his subconcious knew that they are being given to keep his infections in control, nevermind the remedy or the medicine was right or not.
what do you think.

I have noticed from yesterday that he has a little dry cough coming again. And he had taken icecream a day before. This worries me as his such cough is mostly the beginning of an infection again but definitely not always.

I do not say this to him and keep telling him that this new remedy is going to keep him healthy and that he is stronger enough now to fight against all the germs which create his infections. I always do the positive talking with him.

Best Regards to you and all

Lu

It seems the ice cream has something that irritates your son's body. We may never know what it is. See if there is any maltodextrin in the icecream ingredients.

Suggest to him that this is so. Then look for a substitute, Soy icecream or sherbet, etc. And, limited intake.

You do not realize how the mind is listening. It took a long time for me to "see" this. It is really interesting.

I like the story about a man that had a bladder problem. After some conversation, the practitioner got some very plain type of candies and put them into another bottle and informed the man this was the best remedy. Soon, the man was asking for another bottle as the first really did the trick.

I have seen the strangest things the mind/body does with very little encouragement. (or discouragement)!

Do not begin the change until you are sure the cough is passing. Say things like it seems better already. It is going away. etc.

Thank you for your kind words, I hope our plan works as expected.

Blessings, Sabra

Dear inneed,
I am a certified ear coning specialist andi can see there would be benefit from using ear cones on your child and even your wife. Ear cones are great for everyone-some need them more oftenthan others.

I can provide you with information on how to do this yourself, as there may not be any practitioners in your area. The ear has access to many dark, moist places (sinus cavities) wehre fungus, yeast, and wax flourish.

Ear cones can be purchased on line an din health food store. Reco to use 2-3 in each ear of child 3 in adult. Do first in left ear and then right. The results vary but usually wax and other material will come out. This is a spiritual practice that can benefit all persons. For further details: write back that you are interested andi will check again within a week.

Dear Lu, this will not harm your son and it is a pleasant experience. It is up to you.

I would seek someone that knows how to do it as it needs to be done right.

Will not affect "infection" but no ill effects from process.
____________________

Lu, have you noticed if your son has an lactose intolerance? Does he drink milk? Is he ok with it? Any negative responses, like temper, headache, stomach distress?

Blessings, Sabra
 
sabra last decade
Dear Zolabear,

Thankyou for your suggestions. I donot know anything about Ear cones but since Sabra also suggest that it is worth trying and has no ill effects then I would certainly like to give it try. Please do let me have the details. By the way why did you suggest it for wife as well. She doesnt get ENT infections.

Dear Sabra,
Son is well. I have not noticed any lactose intolerance. But he does take milk regularly since birth.
his cough is well too. I am continuing with OS. Will bring down to two doses as I feel he is not having any cough at all.

Best Regards

Lu.

I didn't actually advocate the ear cones, but it is not harmful and may be beneficial in the attention given to your son.
_____________________

Two doses with the fake one so he thinks he is still getting 3. Yes?

In the long term effort here, this may be the turning point. In about 3 weeks he should be on "3 doses" of UNmedicated water. This is a phychological action to get into the sub-conscious in our attempt to break the allopathic habit.

Blessings, Sabra
 
sabra last decade
Dear Sabra, Hi! I meant since he was having cough , so i am till now giving 3 doses and will now bring down to 2 doses of remedy and not unmedicated water. Yes now here i will add one dose of unmedicated water.

today he has got slight lose motions probably because of what he had last night outside. I am giving him water with salt and sugar dissolved.

any remedy you would suggest if this continues. he does not have vomiting or nausea but did talk about stomache ache.

Regards

Lu
 
inneed last decade
If it continues is one thing, but if it passes, let it be. Try your best to not get pulled into every little thing as we all have changes from time to time.

An acknowledgement of the diarrhea, and a suggestion to tell you if it continues or gets better.

Watch what was eaten when this happens.

Blessings, Sabra

Dear inneed: READ ALL BEFORE STARTING
I also advocate finding a professional, as there are nuances that can make it more effective.

Supplies: earcones, scissors (they need to be sharp and will get wax all over them), paper plate, wooden BBQ skewer or other item that fits in the cone opening, bowl with water in it, candle or lighter, qtips for outer ear only, possibly allergy cream, witch hazel

Earconing for child would require 1 1/2-2 in each ear. (3 for adult) and have child laying down on right side first (do left ear first)light the cone and place small end of cone in ear-you must hold cone. It only goes in ear a slight amount, burn about 1-2 inches (long before ash falls ) if smoke comes out of the ear-readjust.

YOU MUST SUPERVISE and if you can explain the process to child and that he must stay still so as not to get burned.

Remove ear cone
and cut just below burned part into bowl of water. Use the bbq skewer to poke through small end to big end and this will remove the resideue onto the paper plate.relight and repeat once or twice until about 4 inches of cone left-do not burn more than that.

You will be amazed at the results. Clean outer ear NOT INSIDE-with qtip and witch hazel to clean area. If you have an otoscope to look inside-great. Look before and after. For about $20. you can get one from Dr. Mom-look up on web.

Wax varies in color, yellow powdery substance is candida(yeast), can get bugs out,etc. You will wonder-where was all that stuff. When you look in ear intially-there may be nothing to see-it may look clean or you may see wax or powder.

If ear gets itchy-use allergy cream and qtip to apply in the outer ear area. Qtips are not to be used inside the ear.

It still amazes me when the ear is totally clean and then so much stuff comes out. I usually separate the two ear results on the plate-as one ear may have more than the other and its nice to be able to see what came from each.

Ear coning by definition is a spiritual practice and i can not claim that this has any medical significance but i do have a lot of stories about how this has helped others.

As sabra says-it is a very relaxing process and has definite spiritual; stabilizing effects-even with no ear trouble stuff still comes out and benefits can be seen. For adults, the process is the same, though 3 cones per ear is recommended.

My boyfriend had a chronic ear infection (for 44 years)in the middle ear-he had to hold his nose and blow outto pop his ears several times a day. After two ear coning sessions over a few months-he no longer has to do this-the condition is gone. This has been about four years ago now. Do not do ear coning more than once per week.

Good Luck and again, if you can find a pro-go there at least at first as it is hard to try and explain this process.
 
zolabear last decade
As you see, Lu, this is best done by someone experienced. It is very pleasant as I have had it done.

The soothing attention given your son would be beneficial. It makes tiny little noises; he should be told before. The ear does not feel hot.

Giving this treatment to your wife may have good effects of calming and a sense of eliminating jealousy of the son. If she agrees to this, she should be done first.

Ask in health stores or call acupuncturists, or Oriental Doctors for a practitioner if you decide to do this.

Blessings, Sabra

Dear Zolabear and Sabra

Thankyou for the details. yes it does sound worth trying but I sure need a specialist who could do so in front of me and I then follow. Will look for it locally as i have not heard about ear conning here.

Thanks alot to both of you.

Will keep you updated.

Thanks and Regards

Dear Sabra

Hi! How r u doing. Son is ok. But his stomach went bad. I tried to get it in control without giving anything but then one day the school people called and said he is not feeling well. he was having lose motions and then I had rush him to his doctor. Been two days now and he is better with the stomach.

His throat and ear is better. no complaints as yet.
But yesterday he was saying that his right gland seems swollen and giving pain.

Would you want me to go back to OS three times a day or stick to two doses

thank you for your continued response

regards

lu
 
inneed last decade
Stick with two doses. (one non) He is trying to regain his ground with the sympathy.

"rushed" him to the doctor?? Sounds very emotional. Please avoid this at all costs.

I do not know if I have ever gone or taken a child to the doctor for loose bowels? This is the body getting rid of a lot of toxic junk like a fever.

Keep up the positive, matter of fact, attitude. When one is too sympathetic, the child fails to feel strong and sure of his manhood. They are like simi-cripples, thinking they have no power of their own.

It is like a horse, one must be firm and the horse feels safe. It doesn't feel safe with a overly sweet and easy person. They rebel for the firm handling for feelings of strength.

Blessings, Sabra
