A VERY UNUSUAL CASE OF DIABETES

by

Whilst on my knees in my morning devotion, I made the above request. The Lord replied immediately Why pray for that which you already have had? Since then I have cased to pray for a cure. If the old request forms on my lips, as sometimes it does, I fail utterly to give utterance to it. The form my prayer now takes is I thank you, Lord, for directing me to homoeopathy, enabling me to give up insulin, and I usually conclude the above prayer with the words Bless Mr. Ellis Barker..

The man overflowed with gratitude. He wrote to me on February 12th: “During my Journey through life, I have made many friends but not one benefactor who can compare with you. I never cease to thank God for having led me to consult you and to take homoeopathic treatment. It is far and away better and more effective than insulin.”.

On November 23rd, 1935, my patient wrote, after I had sent him some diluted Phosphoric Acid combined with Ignatia, 10 drops to be taken after meals: “Your treatment is an unceasing wonder to me. Just think of it, I have not used insulin since July 13th, 1934, the day on which I paid you a visit, that is to say a whole year and four months.

It is not wonderful that my confidence in your treatment is unbounded! I thank God that he ever led me to visit you. Life has almost become normal, and what is an incalculable blessing, my mind is now entirely free from the anxiety of an attack of coma, to which all diabetics who inject insulin are exposed”.

On December 10th, 1935, he wrote: “Since I became a diabetic I have not enjoyed such a good health as I do today, and under Gods blessing I have to ascribe it to your professional attendance”.

The letters became less frequent and on January 11th, 1936 he wrote with regard to Ignatia in a high potency: “I now take your medicine very rarely, once a month or once in six weeks. Think of what that means to me when I tell you I used to inject insulin twice a day! How can I thank you I used to inject insulin twice a day! How can I thank you enough for what you have done for me. I never cease to thank God for directing me to you”.

On July 16th, 1936, two years after his visit to me, he wrote: “The diabetes has not completely left me. At times I feel much weakness and exhaustion. I verily believe, if I could be free from worry, I would hardly know I am a diabetic. The urine is practically sugar free. I have gone on for two or three months with no evidence of sugar in the urine, but every time a new source of worry upsets me, sugar inevitably reappears in the urine. The cause of worry and sorrow is not financial but the quarreling among the members of the flock.

The combined effect of these things has produced at times a deep physical and mental prostration. I have the strong conviction, were I free from these troubles, that diabetes would have gone completely. As to insulin, I am happy to say that I have not injected any insulin for practically two years. You remember when I visited you, you told me not to discontinue the insulin until the sugar disappeared from the urine. From July 15th, 1934 to the middle of September, 1934 till now, a period of 23 months. All I have done is to take an occasional pilule of Ignatia, as you directed me. I consider that your treatment has wrought almost a miracle upon me”.

I think the reading of this correspondence must make it clear to everyone that the cause of diabetes in the case of Mr. B.J. was chiefly, or purely, psychical, and that his complaint did not call for insulin but for Ignatia, Phosphoric acid and some similar remedies.
