We nearly didn’t have a case for you this month! I waited and waited to hear from Kelly! Surely some distant relative of her’s, some little soccer mom friend, a neighbor, surely somebody she knew was going to get sick, it never fails–but not this month! I paced, I waited, I checked my watch; nothing! Finally, at the 11th hour, Kelly writes in to say her son is sick. Well it’s about time! Hey, we’re up against a deadline here!
So without further ado, please welcome the slightly out of breath, Kelly Young!
(Gasp!) I should probably say that I’m happy to be here, but I’d be lying. No, it’s just that I was told I had two seconds to get down here and deliver this case! Anyway, I recieved a call Monday from my 6 year old son’s teacher saying…
Kelly, you have to pick a name.
No, that’s not what she said.
No, no, Kelly, you need a name for the case!
Well, I could use his real name.
I’m afraid his real name isn’t very good.
What?
It’s not a TV name! You see, Kelly, people on TV have exotic names like “Rock”, “Stone”, Brook”… names that are going places! Do you know what I mean?
Yeah, I think I do….What about “Everglades National Park”?
That sounds fine!
OK, So, my little “Everglades National Park” was not feeling well and running a fever at school. He had been outside in the cold, wet weather over the previous weekend and had developed a cough but nothing else at that point.
My husband brought him home from school and monitored him for the afternoon. His fever rose to over 102 degrees, he was red-faced, hot and lethargic.
By the time I returned home, he was sweating profusely, chilly and wanted to be wrapped up. His cough was still present, he wasn’t very thirsty (though he did drink some water) and had eaten nothing all day.
The first remedy I gave made him somewhat better the next day. He had a total of three doses. But in the afternoon, his fever returned, so I gave another dose of the remedy and nothing happened! So, I tried it in a 200C, but still nothing happened! His ears were bright red and he was extremely thirsty for ice cold water.
Rethinking the case I realized I missed an important symptom- he smelled horrible! His sweat and breath were quite foul. I gave a different remedy this time in a 30C potency. A half an hour later, I again gave a sucussed dose of *** and to my horror, the poor kid seemed to get worse! His fever had risen to almost 104 degrees and I was getting really worrried!
Fortunately, (thank you Elaine!!) I realized he was aggravating! I zapped — antidoted — with a lower dose of the same remedy. Things settled down quickly and his fever lowered dramatically to 101 then down to 99 then normal by bedtime!
I have yet to repeat this remedy and will only do so if I see a return of symptoms. Thank God for “zapping”! And now if you don’t mind, I’m going back to bed!
Hey, thanks for dropping by! If anybody knows the name of this remedy, please write to me at LEWRA@aol.com The results will be in next month’s ezine.
