The 4th of July holiday was a safe one and fairly free of rain for all to enjoy whatever they chose.
I have an aunt on Dad’s side, Janet. Janet could never have children and she was a widow at the age of 42. Janet lent a hand to her twin brother’s child, Dan, who was farming the family farm. Dan’s parents have been gone for some time. Dan never married. Janet helped in the gardens, the kitchen, the home butchering and whatever and wherever she could. Janet was very close to her twin brother’s children: Dan, Kelly and Konnie. Janet stepped in as their mom. She helped with whatever when she could, gave advise if asked for it and took it as well as she could when she was told to mind her own business.
Konnie’s daughter, Shelly, was a small child when she was severely injured in a car accident. Shelly’s stature was small and fragile due to that car accident. It didn’t hold her down. She excelled in school and went on to get her master’s degree and enjoyed the academic world of teaching.
Shelly married in her mid thirties. Shelly was thrilled when she had a baby boy that is just about a year old right now in mid 2018. Shelly never batted an eye when circumstances played out that she would be a single mom. Shelly began feeling ill after the birth of her son. Shelly’s mom believed in homeopathic healing and counseled Shelly to follow. Shelly was under her mom’s care. Homeopathic treated for breast cancer, then they determined it was mastitis. Drinking of cleansing waters, soaking of the feet, nothing to eat but raw vegetables and raw fruit. No medical records piled up for Shelly. Shelly passed away last night.
Aunt Janet’s heart is broken. How can logical, seemingly smart adult people fall for all the so called healing treatments of homeopathic. How can this be in the 21st century when we have wonderful trained medical people? Might the secret be that our loved ones need to be seen by the wonderful trained medical people?
