“I wish no-one in this world dies from a liver disease!” echoes again & again when you talk to Dr.Somenath Mitra, a non-resident homeopathy physician who recently saw his own mother die from Cirrhosis of Liver due to Hepatitis C, a chronic liver disease due to infection of the liver by a virus. “It was a complete helpless situation. The conventional doctors at a reputed city hospital had given up saying there was nothing more could be done except palliative management.” Dr.Mitra who has been researching & developing protocols in homeopathic medicine over the last 10 years on cancer & other difficult chronic health problems says that he was shocked to hear that his own mother was diagnosed with such a serious disease condition last year when he came down from abroad to visit his parents in Kolkata during Durga Puja Festival. Dr.Mitra was sad to see that the conventional medical specialist in a reputed city hospital didn’t even care to inform his mother or father about the condition‘s seriousness even before one year when she was admitted in the hospital for a thorough checkup. “This is total medical negligence. The doctors in general in these so called big hospitals don’t even care to spend a few extra minutes to educate their patients or the patient party about the illness, forget about even touching their patients for a medical examination. They are just in a hurry to finish as many patients as they can as fast as possible” says Dr.Mitra. So when the conventional doctors had given up in his mother’s case, Dr.Mitra seeked permission to administer some of his homeopathic protocols. The doctor-in-charge was kind enough to grant official permission to his request. Within a few days some of the clinical improvement which set in was unexpected. This was confirmed by the pathological tests which were being done routinely on a daily-basis says Dr.Mitra. “This was the first case of Hepatitis C with Cirrhosis of Liver in my last 10 years of clinical practice that I could treat with my homeopathic protocols. The results were not only amazing but intensely provoked my scientific temperament that there is immense scope of research & development in homeopathy for such serious diseases of the liver. I just got only about 4 weeks to treat my mother with homeopathy & she was feeling better in her overall condition. My mother requested me so many times to take her back home so that she can only take my homeopathic medications & get better but it was too late….” says Dr.Mitra with tears rolling down his eyes. This whole event of seeing his mother die in total helplessness & also seeing the clinical improvement in her hopeless condition with the homeopathic protocols which was clearly evident during the last few days of her life has given birth to the Rina Mitra Memorial Liver Foundation For Homeopathy Research !
