The first case refers to a man, 74 year old, Mr. Stathopoulos, a Greek
civil engineer who was operated in the cardiological department of
Houston, USA, in 1979 for an aorta transplant by the famous Greek
Cardiologist Dr. Boulafentis. A rejection process started soon after the
operation and the man soon fell in to a comatose state. After two
months of being unconscious he was transferred to the Athens hospital
Hygia, where he remained in to coma for another month. At this stage he
was taking strong allopathic medication including the antifungal drug
amphotericine D. His vascular system was in a terrible state, his
kidneys were breaking down, his blood pressure was very high and he was
attended by two cardiologists an internist and a nephrologist.
All his extremities were swollen and bluish from the repeated
intravenous salines with the medication. After all this lapse of time
and taking in to consideration his serious condition the doctors became
desperate and called the daughter, an architect, and her husband, an
assistant professor in the Athens University, to tell them that this was
all they could do and there was nothing more to be done in his case.
According to their estimation the man had one or two days to live.
At this point his daughter with her husband been good friends of mine
came to consult me about the desperate condition of their father, and to
ask me whether homeopathy could do something for the old man.
My initial reaction was of course negative but all the same I went with them to the hospital to see his condition myself.
After looking at his case I thought that there was a ray of hope and I
said I would take up the case if the doctors of the hospital agreed to
suspend all allopathic medication except the intra-nasal feeding.
In seven days his consciousness returned and in twelve days from the
beginning of the homeopathic treatment he asked us to take him home and
we did, not with an ambulance but by the car of the professor.
One month later the man was so well that the only thing that was left
was a swelling of his ankles. I then ask him to call the cardiologist to
give us his opinion about his swollen ankles. The cardiologist arrived
and the patient opened the door. The doctor not recognizing the patient
said "I am the cardiologist and I came to see Mr. Stathopoulos", the
patient replied "I am Mr. Stathopoulos" the doctor insisted "not you the
patient" and Mr. Stathopoulos now replied, "I am the patient"
The cardiologist, after finding the patient in very good condition he
telephoned me later on and said "you made a small miracle".
The man lived for another ten years in good health, driving his car
till the end of his life, and died suddenly within a few days at the age
of 84 after a brain stroke.
