It just goes to show that modern medicine, animal or human based, is not the "end all be all" of medicine. They only practice what they are taught in school and that is often to rely on more tests, more surgeries, more stuff that costs money.

I am not saying doctors are out to hammer patients for money, they are just doing what they are taught. Natural medicine is not often taught in medical schools because the results are so hard to prove or duplicate in a laboratory environment. Such a shame too as for some reason, traditionally taught doctors are against natural medicines, that is often why they don't mention it.

Congrats on your four legged family member getting better. Great to hear stories like this.

About two years ago we had two of our smaller breed dogs contract Parvo and it nearly killed them. Docs were shooting them up with medicines and saying it may not take and they may not survive. We did a similar thing with them, we changed their diet from dog food to natural foods (oats and peanut butter being a part of ours too). Almost immediately we saw an improvement in their activities as we committed to a diet change and the water injection treatment the vet offered up.

Our four legged family members are just that, four legged family members. People that don't have dogs, or other pets, probably don't understand that bond but it is there. We have to protect them and do what we can for them. I am glad to know you are that type of person, Jerry. Again, congratulations on the success with Peachy.
