Emergency Trip to Bountiful

My poor dad has been suffering with his legs and swelling for the past 2 years, since his knee replacements. My mom has taken him to soooo many doctors and they keep saying that he's normal and that his knee is healing and that we have to understand that he's been through a lot of trauma and is healing slowly. Well by the look of his legs, I don't see NORMAL people walking around with legs looking like his.  
 
So my mom's last resort was to take him up north to Bountiful to
Dr. Murrieta Burgdorf
she is a homeopathic Dr. as well as an MD.
She is the best of both worlds.
She took one look at my dad's legs and said, "He was one step away from gangrene
and that he was a very sick man!"
The first day she had so many vitamins and minerals being pumped into his body through IV
to DETOX his body. He was there till 8:30pm (the clinic closes at 5:00pm)
That tells me that there was some urgency in her staying late for my dad.
That night my Aunt Joyce called and was crying on the phone and told me that my dad
was not doing well and was very sick. She said they came back from Costco &
my dad told my mom that he thinks that he passed over to the other side & had some episodes.
That scared my aunt and so she called me. I called my siblings and we ended up
taking a ROADTRIP.
We walked into the clinic and my dad just burst into tears when he saw his kids.
We stayed for a few days and felt like dad was getting better and better.
I know that having us up there helped with his medicine.
LOVE and FAMILY are great medicinal treatments also.
We visited with all of the patients from around the world.
This clinic is mostly for those that are on their last bit of hope and who have
tried everything they could think of.
She is amazing at what she teaches and treatments.
We had my dad laughing and crying when we left.
He was so grateful that we left our families to be at his side for a few days.
And I am so glad that we did also.
We had a great time as siblings, sharing stories, laughing and just rebonding!!!
I was so glad that Cambria was able to go with us.
She is the oldest grandchild and my oldest.
She loves her grandparents so much and was just as worried as we all were.
My dad will be there for a couple weeks, but is getting stronger everyday.
Thank goodness for prayer and fasting.
