What can be more frustrating and agonizing than watching your parents or other people you love gradually lose their mental capacities? To watch them lose their memories, lose their way, and maybe even forget who you are. Whether they are suffering from Alzheimer’s Disease or other forms of dementia, often homeopathy can, at least to a degree, help. It usually will not cure, but will often slow the decline and make their life much happier.

Here is one case to give you an idea how this works:

Ruth was a woman in her early 70’s who was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s Stage 3. She had moderate level of memory loss and confusion. She talked of her fears of what was happening to her and what lay ahead. Her main concerns though were of her past life. She described a life of many hurts. Of people doing things that emotionally made her feel very bad. Of feeling alone and sorry for herself. Of all the love she felt but couldn’t always express. Of her headaches and arthritis pains.

Based upon this and many other symptoms we gave him a dose of Natrum Sulphuricum (note this was the right remedy for her but the possibility of it being the right remedy for another person with Alzheimer’s is very low).

By one month she was much happier. Her memory was much better for both the past and the present. She was much less tired. She said that she felt better than she had in years. She no longer felt so dragged down by the past.

Over the next 10 years there was a very slow gradual decline into dementia but much slower than average for Alzheimer’s patients. Whenever she didn’t feel as good she took a dose of her remedy which lifted her up for weeks. Despite the decline she was happier than she had ever been in her life. The remedy helped her memory, health and happiness tremendously and slowed but did not stop the development of the disease.

In this example you see the difference between homeopathy and other approaches for treatment of Alzheimer’s. After the right remedy we expect to see everything getting better in the person’s life. In some very early stage Alzheimer’s cases we can see complete cure. More often we see improvements as in this example.
