Guest guest Posted August 6, 2012 Report Share Posted August 6, 2012 Wonderful news Nona, thanks for sharing. I too have had great success healing MINOR wounds, nothing remarkaable except the normal healing time was shortened considerably. Good luck getting the medicos to admit that any of our stuff actually works. zoe ________________________________ To: original_kombucha Sent: Sunday, 5 August 2012, 19:52 Subject: wound healing experience....long Hi all, im usually a lurker, but need to share this Last year i had MAJOR emergency surgery, leaving me with a colostomy....but im reversible. now ive developed hernias, one in mymidriff, from the incision. theother around the stoma sight(where my intestine is exposed) due to the stretching of the skin due to the hernia, it become weak. changing my appliances, that stick to my skn, caused some problems, and the ulcerated sores that occured were horrible. they were under the part closest to the stoma, which means they couldnt be uncovered, because of the part that i wear, that sticks to my body. this is gross, but they were bloody, weeping sores that got bigger, and nastier, and even a little puss would occur. after over 2 months of seeing the wound care nurse, nothing was better, and id gotten another ulcerated sore to boot. well a week and a half ago, i said, ive had it. when it was time to change my colostomy bag, i would rig up a temporary bag around the stoma, as theres no control when you go to the bathroom with thses, i would apply small pieces of scoby to the wounds, for at least a half hour, then i would apply a couple layers of KT, 1 would dry, i would apply another. about 10 days later now, my wounds are almost healed!!!! 1 is totally gone, the 2 worst ones are smaller, no leaking, bleeding, nothing. its working MIRACLES! i go to the nurse tommorrow, and am going to let her know just how i did this.....i know for a fact this is common among ostomy patients, and since the nurse was the one that told me to drink kefir(ive given my nurse her own grains to make her own, instead of buying) im hoping they will do something about this miracle thats happend, and admit it has the healing properties, some people need. sorry this is so long, but i HAD to share this Nona ------------------------------------ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 6, 2012 Report Share Posted August 6, 2012 It's not too long a post, please don't apologize. I know that the SCOBY and KT have this capacity for wound healing. Over the years we have heard of other such extreme circumstances. If the nurse recommended kefir, she may indeed be open to this new information. In any case, it's worth telling her because in future things may " click " for her and she'll understand. The only thing I would suggest is to avoid the Western wound healing protocol now that you're doing the SCOBY. I think this is one area where combining the two protocols is counterproductive. The Western wound disinfectants will kill the KT organisms (that are working to do the healing). -- > Hi all, im usually a lurker, but need to share this > Last year i had MAJOR emergency surgery, leaving me with a colostomy....but im reversible. now ive developed hernias, one in mymidriff, from the incision. theother around the stoma sight(where my intestine is exposed) due to the stretching of the skin due to the hernia, it become weak. changing my appliances, that stick to my skn, caused some problems, and the ulcerated sores that occured were horrible. they were under the part closest to the stoma, which means they couldnt be uncovered, because of the part that i wear, that sticks to my body. this is gross, but they were bloody, weeping sores that got bigger, and nastier, and even a little puss would occur. after over 2 months of seeing the wound care nurse, nothing was better, and id gotten another ulcerated sore to boot. well a week and a half ago, i said, ive had it. when it was time to change my colostomy bag, i would rig up a temporary bag around the stoma, as theres no control when you go to the bathroom with thses, i would apply small pieces of scoby to the wounds, for at least a half hour, then i would apply a couple layers of KT, 1 would dry, i would apply another. about 10 days later now, my wounds are almost healed!!!! 1 is totally gone, the 2 worst ones are smaller, no leaking, bleeding, nothing. its working MIRACLES! > i go to the nurse tommorrow, and am going to let her know just how i did this.....i know for a fact this is common among ostomy patients, and since the nurse was the one that told me to drink kefir(ive given my nurse her own grains to make her own, instead of buying) im hoping they will do something about this miracle thats happend, and admit it has the healing properties, some people need. > sorry this is so long, but i HAD to share this > Nona > > > > ------------------------------------ > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 7, 2012 Report Share Posted August 7, 2012 Wow! I'm a " lurker " also, but am very much interested in the benefits of our kefir and kt. I have family who could benefit greatly from the information, if they would only try it. I don't know what they have to lose.  Thank you for sharing your story. I will be forwarding it to my family who need it so much. I was the recipient of my own grains and a new SCOBY just this weekend from a lovely, lovely woman here in Georgia named Lois ... and I know these will go far for me as well as my family/siblings, who are all starting to pay for " the sins of our youth " . If I can help even one, that will be one of my greatest contributions ... the promise of good health.   Thank you, Maxwell.
