Your Healing Touch..!
I'd never been one to visit the sick and always felt my wife, a doctor,
did enough visiting at her hospital for both of us; but this time I had
to go. He was an old man, well into his eighties and I had always been
particularly fond of him. I entered his room in the hospital and found
him bent with his back to me doing something to his leg. I walked up
and gently touched him, "Bob," he said, "my leg hurts!"
It was an old leg, wrinkled and gnarled. "It'll go away," I said and
then watched him as he tried to massage it. I couldn't bear seeing him
in pain any longer; I sat down, placed my hands on the part that hurt
and slowly started pressing it. Suddenly I did not see the wrinkles nor
the tired veins that accepted my touch. I massaged for a good fifteen
minutes and when I looked up he had tears in his eyes. "Thanks Bob," he
said. He was discharged the next day.
That day as I left the hospital I realised how significant my touch had
been. I remembered my mother who would spend hours rubbing balm on
painful limbs, kneading hurting flesh and massaging the hours away. Her
touch worked more than the best medication!
An Ohio University study of heart disease in the 1970's was conducted by
feeding quite toxic, high cholesterol diets to rabbits in order to block
their arteries, duplicating the effect such a diet has on human
arteries.
Consistent results began to appear in all the rabbit groups except for
one, which strangely displayed sixty per cent fewer symptoms! Nothing in
the rabbits physiology could account for their high tolerance to the
diet, until one day while watching the rabbits being fed it was
discovered that the student who was in charge of feeding those
particular rabbits liked to fondle and pet them.
He would hold each rabbit lovingly for a few minutes and then feed it!
Astonishingly, this alone enabled the animals to overcome the toxic
diet. Repeat experiments in which one group of animals was treated
neutrally while the other group were loved came up with similar results!
Once again the mechanism that causes such immunity is quite unknown.
it is baffling to think that the mind of a rabbit has an immune response
that can be triggered off by cuddling!
I recollect a few years ago my father falling sick in America. I
remember him wanting to come home to India. My brother flew to
America and brought him back.
"Why did you want to come back?" I asked, "Didn't you have the best
treatment over there?"
"I missed people!" he said and I watched as his friends and mine came
and spent time with him, held his hands.
"Shouldn't they wash their hands?" I wondered.
"Let them," said my dad, "I like their touch!"
It's not flowers my friend, or a get well card, it is your healing touch
that someone sick in bed needs to feel today..!
