you are of course spot-on about the symptom-management of disease by Allopathic Physicians.
If, and only if, we take responsibility for our own health (which we both have it seems) there is a zest and joy for living which is a wonderment to behold.
To quote one of the early Natural Hygienic Physicians: Susanna Way Dodds MD................
"Life is lengthened and filled with joy by living in accordance with Nature's teachings; it is not only shortened but rendered miserable and worthless by pursuing an opposite course".
