Since the creation of this world, there have been various diseases or sicknesses that are considered to be incurable and the belief still holds that they can not be cured whatsoever.
Among these sicknesses includes,” EPILEPSY” which has been described as a disgraceful sickness to many looking at the way people living with it suffer from unannounced seizures, foam from the mouth, roll on the floor as well as hit their heads and other parts of their body to objects whenever they struggle to recover.
Because of these features or characteristics attached to the sickness which is common with anyone who seriously suffers from it, many people have come to accept that is a evil spirit invoked sickness which can only be cured by casting out the demons from the sufferer by a powerful pastor or traditionalists.
But the unfolding secrete is that this deadly sickness which was once thought to be incurable after all can now be cured. As the North Americans claim it can be cured through brain surgery, some Ghanaian herbalists are also claiming strongly that the sickness can be cured through application of herbal medicine without conducting a brain surgery.
The argument here is the claims by the North Americans that the sickness can be cured through brain surgery whiles Ghanaian herbalists are also claiming cure for the sickness without conducting any brain surgery therefore the need to probe further and see whether truly the sickness has any form of cure.
A Toronto based newspaper The Globe and Mail on October 5,2010 edition published at page four a story headlined,” For epilepsy, surgery’s benefits ‘amazing’ which says despite 80 per-cent success rate, the operation is severely underutilized but Doctors at Toronto Western Hospital hope to change that.
The report filed by ANN McILROY, gave an idea how a gentleman underwent brain surgery to remove the hippocampus from his brain scalp to end the electric seizures that has been causing his epilepsy for years and since the brain surgery was conducted in February 2006 has never suffered any seizure again.
Whiles the North American cure is through brain surgery, a Ghanaian herbalist by name Opanin Kofi Budu, is challenging that the sickness can be cured through application of herbal medicines without conducting brain surgery on patients and they will be fine in the same was those who undergo brain surgery.
Outside what this herbalist said to this reporter, Kwame Mensah, Epileptic who was cured from the sickness said he used to experience frequent seizures which made him lost his balance and fall onto the ground foaming and struggle violently when the seizure occurs.
A friend took him to this herbalist at Akwadum, a village near Koforidua ,Ghana who scraped backs of an herbal tree ad asked him to apply for a certain period and the past eight years he has not experienced any seizure in his life again.
With these two clear testimonies, it does not matter which form of treatment one will like to seek in curing the sickness but what natters most is the removal of the perception that the sickness can not be cured and encourage patients suffering from the sickness to seek treatment.
Suppose one is in far away Canada or in the Americas, the best advice to give him would be seeking medical attention where brain surgery would be the option. But for those in Ghana it will be idle for them to seek medical attention from this herbalist which will be less costly as compared to the brain surgery in Canada.
Let the health authorities team up with him to come out with more medications to solve incurable ailments that probably he might have a cure for.
In case you a patient and want to seek herbal treatment from this herbalist, you can reach him through 011-233-245519462, Opanin Kofi Bud.
