HOW TO CURE CANCER



In review and conclusion : It is impossible to cure cancer or any other disease by name upon the diagnostic indications alone, or per se. It is not vouchsafed to man. I have cured by taking into account all the abnormalities of those same individuals and giving that medicine to each one which had been proven upon healthy people to have symptoms resembling closely those experienced by the sick person in question.

That is the only way to cure sick people, cancers and all. When God sets aside the law of gravitation then He may abolish the law of cure, so that no longer the principle similia similibus curantur holds good. Then prospectors and empirics (if they survive the catalysm) may consistently speculate upon and announce a “specific for”, a “cure for”, and “remedy homoeopathic to ” cancer ; and do the same by any every other disease that vexes our race. But not until then. Meanwhile let us with patients work in the way that He has ordained and every year achieve greater success.

Edmund Carleton
Edmund Carleton, M.D., was born on December 11, 1839 in Littleton, New Hampshire. He began his medical studies at the Hahnemann Medical College of Philadelphia and transferred at the end of the year to the New York Homoeopathic Medical College, which had been newly reorganized. In 1871, he graduated from this institution with the highest honors. Carleton began his practice of 41 years in New York City. He considered himself a strict Hahnemannian.

In 1888, Dr. Carleton founded a local study group with Wells, Bayard and Butler, the New York Homeopathic Union, "for the study of homeopathy both in respect to its philosophy as a science and its practice as an art."

Dr. Carleton was known to be a first class surgeon. Much ahead of his time, he performed delicate plastic surgeries with great perfection.

Dr. Carleton was a dedicated and much appreciated teacher. For more than twenty-five years he was professor of surgery in the New York Medical College and Hospital for Women. He was also professor of homeopathic philosophy with its clinical application in the New York Homoeopathic Medical College and Hospital. He was president of IHA in 1894. He was also the author of Homeopathy in Medicine and Surgery, published by Boericke & Tafel.
