About 2 weeks ago, I was at a point where I should have been
on top of the world because Zuri Medicine had just opened a new clinic, our 4th
in addition to mobile clinics, and had finished teaching 2 week of acute care
homeopathy in a village so remote it took us 3 hours crammed into the back of a
14 seater that held 20 passengers, to get there from the nearest big town
Mwanza, in Tanzania. Instead, I found myself curled up in bed crying. I was
overwhelmed. I wrote to my friend Annie and said; “I need a powerful psychic to tell me
that what I'm doing is my destiny or some such thing and not just a fool’s
errand..I’m having one of those days — feeling meh.”

16 yr old with diabetes from a snake bite to the hand cost - 30 dimes |

cured ringworm cost 80 nickels |
For the first time Zuri Medicine had to hire a teacher to do the acute care training because when I looked at my schedule I needed to be in another town 12 hrs away to open a clinic where I saw 60 patients in 3 days. Actually, for the upcoming year, at all times I need to be in at least 2 places at once. (has there been any recent talks on cloning?). The request for homeopathy training and clinics are coming in at a speed that gives me anxiety attacks when I open my email because I'm getting at least 1 per day now, I didn’t anticipate any of this would be possible only 1 short year ago when I set out to do this work. Now I need a teacher to help fill these request that come in daily. I realize no matter how I reorder my schedule, I just can’t handle this by myself anymore.

Popo, Zuri Medicine's homeopathy teacher. 50 quarters for 1 day |
This month alone I’ve gotten emails for acute care homeopathy training in
3 remote villages in Uganda. I’m still
working out the particulars for clinics to aid genital mutilation victims spread
across 4 different regions in Tanzaina, (I thought GM was a thing of the past),
and at the Congo clinic in Bukavu there’s
talk of our work spreading to Kinshasa as the head of the Bukavu schools have told the Kinshasa schools
about the good results to the children suffering from bad cases of ringworm, malaria and amoeba. All this work flooding in and me as head cook
and bottle washer, (for the young people reading this it means I’m the one
doing everything), with not enough time to cover everywhere, but I’m not
complaining.

Zuri Medicine giving ringworm and amoeba medicine to the primary school children. 200 pennies per child |
The majority of people I treat can’t afford to pay. At best I charge $2
per person but in a country where this is a DAILY wage for a lot of people, we
treat for free and nobody is ever turned away. The treatment provided to children in schools
is also done for free. The training we do is done so there is SOME health care
in remote villages, and I could keep going on and on about what
Zuri Medicine does. Annie in all her wisdom has asked how she can help and has
come up with a plan that I think is ingenious.

to be honest both Zuri Medicine and I could use a miracle right now. By

vacuum when you do the carpets, in the cushions on the couch, you can help me
make a profound difference to the quality of someone’s life.
