Well, life has been a bit stressful lately. Our 12 year old granddaughter was diagnosed with Stage IV Wilm's Tumor on the 20th of December. She then went through surgery but it was unsuccessful. Today she is being admitted to the Holtz Jackson Miami hospital for a very intricate and dangerous surgery to again try to remove the tumor. She had 2 chemo treatments right after Christmas and the tumor shrunk a bit. Then 6 more chemo sessions and the tumor is believed to be dead now but did not…

Arriving at Joerg Wichmann’s place it started to snow and it didn’t stop for the whole next day. Closing my eyes in bed I still saw snowflakes falling. Messages from Belgium informed me that the traffic jam broke all records. Christel’s Eurostar to London was canceled. Joerg and Angelika’s three children couldn’t make it to school as the buses didn’t get through. So…

MYASTHENIA GRAVIS

During my recent visit to Karachi while doing a case, I was introduced to a new term, “MYASTHENIA GRAVIS.I looked into it and found that it is an auto immune neuromuscular disease.

It causes fluctuating muscular weakness and…

These three days walking alone the weather was spoiling the pleasure somewhat.  Rain is the most unpleasant for hiking, even with a plastic poncho that covers rug sack and all and make me look like Quasimodo. 

It was flat, grey and silent these days, People stay inside if they don’t need to go out. Walking in the drizzle, almost between the drops, it occurs to me that the Walk is an ongoing lesson in trust: things always seem to turn out well. The rain became less when I…

In Köthen my companion for the next days, Jost Schulte, met me in the Hahnemann House, to be precise: in the Master’s office!  Could there be a better place to see each other for the first time, after mailing and Skype conversations?



It was a relief to start walking again, leaving cities behind. The temperature was around 3 degrees, the sky still grey with a sharp northern wind biting our cheeks in the open fields.…

Early on Sunday morning, I walked in the snow to the other side of Berlin, this huge city, to say hello to Jeremy Sherr as he was giving a seminar for German doctors. In the evening a sister of a Dutch homeopath, Jacqueline Bergink who is one of the volunteers who carry on with Walks in the Netherlands hosted me.

She took me on a walk next day in the woods, which start opposite her house, and  she showed me where the Berlin Wall used to be. This part of town is still…

On my path I meet homeopaths I know and new people, and if possible I try to catch up with some I haven’t seen for long. Gilbert Denys, creator of Homeoden in Gent is one of those. Sharing a good meal in a nice restaurant we exchanged the ‘latest news’, which meant going back many years.  As we talked, the beginning years of homeopathy in the 80s were recalled, when Gilbert started his production of homeopathic remedies, so far not available in Belgium. It was him who bought the…
