Prostate cancer – long fight

  Physical and mental

  Dear Unknown Helpers,
  thank you very much for your support. On the health side, not too much has happened since I started the program (unfortunately), I am still very tired and fatigued, with slight back pain. But mentally something “happened”: My son from my first marriage, R. (48), has sought contact with me on his own initiative, which I had broken off 1 1/2 years ago, and has asked me to let the accusations from the past rest and to get back in touch with me and my wife. I reacted positively to this, but – because of my weakness – asked him to go easy on me: to give me more time for it.

  Final feedback

  Unfortunately, I haven’t heard from U. again now – we stopped supporting him a week ago.

  For one or the other of you, this may be a little unsatisfactory. I understand that.

  On the other hand, I know that for some people it is difficult to give feedback. I want to respect that and not press U.

  In any case, thank you for your support – and maybe we will hear about this case again, who knows. For the moment, the case is now closed.

  Prostate cancer and consequences

  My father U. has already claimed the inpatient program once in April. 4 weeks ago a new chemotherapy started and therefore he asks for further long-term Reiki support. His cancer was diagnosed before 2010 and a lot was tried orthodoxly: various radiotherapies, aborted chemotherapy and hormone therapy. There have been ups and downs, but overall he has gotten weaker and weaker and fatigue is one of the most severe symptoms for him.
  Most of the time it is painless, but resignation is also evident. The prostate is cancer-free, but metastases were found in various locations, e.g., lungs, liver. U. treats himself with Reiki and is also treated by me again and again. Thanks in advance to all Reiki transmitters!

  After chemotherapy

  The following message from U. may I pass on to you:
  “Dear Inpatient Program Staff and Workers, Thank you for your support. Last week I, 74, received the second dose of my chemotherapy (prostate cancer, metastatic) and compared to the first dose, the period of immediate exhaustion afterwards (constant sleep, fatigue) was a lot shorter; I can already go to the garden today. Hopefully it stays that way, thanks again.”
  Also my (D’s) impression is that my father is doing well after the This is particularly gratifying because he had to stop chemotherapy more than a year ago because he collapsed during the administration.

  Before the 3rd chemotherapy administration

  Dear Reiki Caregivers,
  After the second chemo, which was much milder than the first, things started to look up: I almost got back to my normal pace of work and life, and was very happy about it. But as if I had rejoiced too soon, things went downhill again in the second half, I got tired early, started to shiver and had to sleep a lot. On 16.07. I will have the third chemo infusion, and a week later I will have the next CT scan, which will show what the metastases in the liver are doing.

  After the 3rd chemotherapy administration

  Dear Reiki Teachers and Caregivers,
  thank you for your continued support. Now, after the 3rd chemo, there is not much new to report, nevertheless here the little: On the physical level, the last CT showed that the bones are stable and the lungs are metastasis-free, but also the foci in the liver have become smaller. And mentally: a decades-old conflict with my son from my first marriage has finally come to an end.

  PS: At the beginning of August I celebrate my 74th birthday in the circle of our children and grandchildren (3). I’m looking forward to that.

  Conventional medicine over?

  My father U. came to the hospital at the weekend. In itself because of a harmless infection nevertheless he could hardly speak any more. In the meantime, he has regained his senses and can speak well. During the examinations it turned out that the chemotherapy currently in progress was not really responding and so, in consultation with the doctors, it was decided to discontinue it. U. says that now after 4 years of conventional medicine, it has not been able to help him. We all don’t know exactly what that means. Your Reiki support is more in demand than ever.

  Family Therapy

  My father was born on 16.08. discharged from the hospital. On 17.08. he, my sister, my half-brother and I met under the direction of his psychotherapist. U.’s relationship with his son (50) from his first marriage was never good and this burdened him significantly in recent years. The son had moved abroad in the meantime and communication was mainly via email, which made it even more difficult to get closer. One session is probably too little to come to terms with 50 years, but it was obvious that U. was relieved, a burden was lifted from him and he came a little closer to a peaceful conclusion. The session was very physically demanding for him because he can’t keep food down at the moment and is very exhausted. All the more I admired the fact that he went along with it.

  Thank you to all Reiki helpers,

  Farewell

  My father U. passed away yesterday evening (23.08.). It happened very peacefully in the presence of my mother.

  After he was still with the therapist a week ago and was able to clear up some things from the relationship with my half-brother, it went very quickly. One day after the therapy (Monday) followed his realization that he does not want more. We have felt this for a long time, but on this day he was also able to consciously admit it to himself. Then followed a rapid decline. On Thursday he was still able to take pictures with his six month old grandson (my nephew). On Friday, he could barely speak and Saturday he fell asleep at home.
  Thank you to all who have supported U. I always had the impression that he was very afraid of dying and long suffering. From that point of view it was a beautiful death, he could say goodbye consciously and the phase of suffering was very short. He found the courage a week ago still to family therapy and then the great courage to let go.
  Thank you!

  Farewell

  Dear Helpers,

  You have separately received the news from D.B., U.’s son, that U. has passed away.

  We were allowed to accompany U. in perhaps the most important period of a human life. With his death, our Reiki help comes to an end.

  Personally, I think that during these important days for the family, it makes perfect sense to keep sending Reiki. We have no mandate to do this and I leave it up to each of you how and when you stop sending Reiki. In my opinion, it makes perfect sense to continue sending Reiki for the next few days – for the highest good of all.
