well, I've heard of it, and used it at times. I like it-- like the taste, like the feel of it--it's very cleansing and strenghtening...not sure what to make of all the testimonies of 'healings' but--you never know. It's definitely going to work on the liver, etc. And, if they say you can use it as a compress, I believe it...
Still, I'm not sure it should take the place of you (him) seeing a good 'eye' person. Believe me, I sympathize with the stress you must both feel. I'll offer a prayer for him-- and for release.
I guess you are not in Canada, where you could at least go to Emergency, and be covered
insurance-wise...
