I find reiki very helpful. I've had a few treatments. It is an alternative medicine that has been helpful in treating pain, depression, and chronic fatigue. I see a regular M.D. and for some things she is very helpful, but reiki has helped combat this crippling depression and fatigue that has occured since mom died. So, at work, I've gotten very close to this kitty that was abandoned about ten years ago. I so look forward to seeing her on my work nights. I have noticed she has had a running nose, sneezing, drinking a lot of water for a cat, and seems to wince in pain when I pat her right side. I suspect the kitty is diabetic or has kidney disease. I know she has a compromised immune system because she was diagnosed with "cat aides" a few months back. So, Monday morning I brought my cat carrier and was all ready to take her to the vet. However, she was having none of it. She hated the cat carrier and after several tries of putting her inside, I decided I wasn't going to force it on her. "Come on, kitty, I'm trying to help you!" I said. I sighed and resigned myself to the fact that the vet trip was not going to happen. I figured she may need some antibiotics to treat a respiratory infection and maybe another shot to boost her immune system. So, instead I decided to pay for a remote reiki session for her which she will get tomorrow. I've become very close to this kitty over the last five and a half years and if anything hope it will help to make her more comfortable the way it has helped me.
