This week I attended two lectures given by Dr Jayne Donegan, a GP and a homeopath. There was much of interest about childhood vaccinations and nursing poorly children through acute disease. Have a look at Jayne’s website and gather lots of useful information: http://www.jayne-donegan.co.uk. I can recommend her downloadable books: Safe treatment of Childhood Injuries and Safe Management of Fever.
Jane is like a breath of fresh air and I was
delighted to hear her general measures for managing acute illness which can be
found in The Safe Management of Fever book. I was particularly pleased with
Jayne telling us about the need for REST and if we as adults rested when we
needed to we probably wouldn’t get all those infections. I have been telling my
patients for ages that they need to rest when their body asks for rest and that
they need to listen to the messages their body is sending. Thank you Jayne for
reminding us all of the importance of REST.
Bye for now
