I rang the National Faith Healing help number and was given a number of someone in my area who did healing. I arranged to see him on a Monday evening and was very suprised by his powers. I was a bit sceptical but after he gave Rob some healing he said he thought I'd benefit from some as well. I said I felt fine but agreed to see what it was like. He stood behind me and placed his hands above my head and then moved to my shoulders, never touching me. I started to feel a headache coming but didn't mention this and he said he could feel that I had a lot of tension to get rid of and this usually came out as a headache. My headache lasted all night but the next day both Rob & I had a lightness of spirit and felt happier. Another time he healed my knee, and again he didn't touch it but it ached a lot afterwards only to feel fine the next day. We continued to see Dayton Little for over 2 years, an hour each week and he didn't charge us anything as he said healing was a gift and it shouldn't be used to make money.
I originally took Rob to a chiropractor who did cranial massage on his scalp. It was when he wasn't sleeping and was very affected by having too much Soya. After the massage he fell asleep for the first time in ages. The chiropractor promised to speak to her tutor about Rob and set up some sessions but although I rang her she never return my calls. I can only think that someone disuaded her from getting involved in Rob's problems! I have since taken Rob to another chiropractor who has done a lot of cranial massage and other things on Rob. He really enjoys going to see Elie Meldgaard at the Parker Clinic and he can certainly move his head better now.
I really like the idea of homeopathy and we have seen two such doctors. However I felt the first one I saw didn't really listen to our story but wanted to treat Rob for muscle spasms instead of treating the cause of them. The other homeopathic doctor listened intently to my story but didn't share her thoughts or give me anything back. She just prescribed a medicine for Rob without explaining what it should do. I have been very disapointed in this area of treatment so far.
Kinesiologists take a holistic approach- they treat the whole person - mind, body, bio-chemistry and energy. They use the responses of muscles when gently tested to find imbalances which interfere with optimum function. Robert is now seeing Stella Broadbent (in Langport, Somerset) who is a very caring lady, she is trying to increase Rob's energy levels and has done lots of balancing on him and me. I think he has got more energy since we have been seeing Stella, Rob is moving his legs more now.
My sister Mary sent me an article about the benefits of sprouting beans, the beans such as lentils are soaked overnight and put into hemp bags and kept moist by soaking the bags in water 3 times a day until they produce little green shoots with two leaves on. This is what is eaten and can be chopped up and eaten with meals. The sprouts are very nutrious and contain lots of enzymes and are supposed to help people with allergies and gut problems.
