After a cancer diagnosis, my mother had a third of her left lung surgically removed and, unfortunately, she required the same operation on her right lung nine months later. In the meantime I had taken the Rei-ki I class with Barbara McGregor. After the second operation she recovered well, and needed no further treatment - In fact, two weeks afterwards, I accompanied my mother on a 2,000km holiday and after two months she was ready to go back to work!
At the time of the second surgery, I was waiting in the Intensive Care Unit upon her arrival from theatre and gently placed my rei-ki hands on her as soon as possible, continuing with rei-ki at every opportunity. She spent only five days in hospital; two days after her surgery the very large incision needed no dressing and looked like a faded scar, which amazed the hospital staff, who were also impressed at how ’well’ she was.
I have also experienced extraordinary pain relief from an abscessed tooth, which had been sudden in onset and so intense that I could barely stand up or speak. My husband is now totally convinced of the power of rei-ki and my three pre-teen children are quick to ask for my rei-ki hands for bumps and scratches. I am now committed to rei-ki.
