Help for 86 year old father-diabetic etc...

Hi everyone,

I am hoping for guidance on some homeopathy for my dad. I have a fairly good understanding of them but am not sure about dosing and remedies to choose. I have studied Bach Flowers and have Reiki Level 1.

My father has had diabetes since his 40s. Last few years he has given up being diligent about monitoring it. Up til then he was pretty good and proactive. He has quickly gone downhill in three years and lost interest in being mobile or doing much of anything.

-he is in hospital right now so I have to figure a way to give him stuff without the nurses seeing. He fell about 10 days ago and has had pain in the lower back. Could not get out of bed due to pain. Also painful whenever the head of the bed is raised up so he is on IV pain meds so he can sit up and eat.

-concerned about his lack of interest in eating. not sure if it's western food that is not familiar to him (he is Chinese) or just has no appetite. eats very little to none.

-very thin, pale skin, flabby arms and legs, and stomach area has loose skin from weigh loss.

-skin is dry and itchy. he picks at ears, nostrils, and scalp. some scabs from picking at flesh. pulls out iv because of itch or seems confused on why they are there and removes them. touches his head and wonders about his hair loss

-talks about one subject constantly at least during the evenings when I visit him. talks about his mother being a thief as well as other relatives being thieves. talked about them stealing for about 45 minutes tonight, constantly repeating the same sentences

-talks about the past constantly, about wrongs, does not remember that i visited the day before, he does remember who I am and other family. constantly forgets he is in the hospital and wonders who the nurses are (who are those people?)

-talks about how poor his family were when he was young but not now cos he has money saved. repeats this constantly.says now we should help others less fortunate. has donated heavily to the Red Cross in the past.

-has high blood pressure and bladder stones frequently. had bladder c----r twice but treated himself with chinese herbs. nurses are concerned about possible heart irregularity so will try to monitor

-lack of interest in doing anything to fix his health from exercise to games wheras before he was always making herbal soups, salves etc...and studying

-has nightmares of being chased and attacked by ghosts/demons

-few weeks back he ran away in the rain with no jacket and shoes because he had a nightmare and said that ghosts/demons beat him up.( police found him several blocks away crawling and bloody but he did remember why he ended up there but not the previous week when he went to the hospital for vomitting and pain.

-when he was able to walk, he would walk a few cm very slowly. is prone to falling because of dizziness but blames demons

-unable to go to restroom by himself since fall. before the fall he needed diapers for urination.

-blind in left eye from glaucoma and cataracts. had operation recently but did not change much.

-he also sings childhood songs every once in awhile during random points in conversation more so in the evenings.

-last night he got out of bed and urinated on the floor and wore his diaper on his head.

-worries that his house will be ransacked by relatives while he is in hospital. talks constantly about dishonest relatives.
-refuses liquids for fear of having to go to washroom

I hope that is enough info if someone can point me to the right direction.

I was thinking I could make a Bach mixture of: walnut, honeysuckle, gorse, wild rose, olive to see if i could sneak it by the nurses.

This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.
Please give him three doses of Anacardium 200 as follows and see how that affects in next 15 days (only 3 doses in 15 days).

day 1 morning
1st dose

day 1 evening
2nd dose

day 2 morning
3rd dose

One dose means
If the medicine is in pills form 4 pills. Don't touch pills with hand. Use cap of bottle to take pills.
If the medicine is in liquid dilution form, 3-4 drops in some 20 ml water. Sip up slowly.

You may add 4 pills or drops to some 20 ml water and give him this water when the pills are fully dissolved.

Thank you, I think I can only dose him once at the most each day because of the limited visiting hours.

Thank you so much.
