To all Holistic Action practitioners, healers and members.
My beloved Teddy age 6 yrs 8 months has left this earth on Monday December 13, 2021. He had polycythemia for 2 yrs and idiopathic epilepsy. For the past year every 8-10 weeks he was getting blood drawn off to live. He was on both TCM and Homepathic remedies and his life was quite happy and as healthy as could be a xpected up to the past 2 weeks.

We had a very bad windstorm on the weekend and he had a major seizure which caused I believe a slight stroke. On Monday I brought him to his traditional vet to see if he had stroked and while there he had another major seizure. The choice was begin a true road of suffering or let him go because his polycythemia was beginning to overtake him, he had a very hi, PVC in November 82% despite many interventions.

He passed peacefully, and the fear of the catheter clotting never happened. As he left, a sweet odor came from his body. A piece of my has died but I know he is healthy and happy now in eternity.

Thank you everyone for all your support, for Dr Christina who I first met almost 4 yrs ago who helped me see how important whole food feeding is and variety in foods. To Dr Jeff, a brilliant Dr of energy and balance, always giving me advice. Dr Judy, who put up with all my fears and anxieties with Teddy, her guidance I shall always be grateful for, and to Dr Basko who made the last 8 months livable and healthy for Teddy.

I am always available to help anyone who has a pet with this horrid disease, primary polycythemia. Teddy lives forever in my heart!
