Larry... While I've never heard of Mr. Wickey before, I wouldn't' t necessarily discount him (but neither am I prepared to jump up, yell "Eureka" and head on over to Indiana to be treated by him). I'd suggest finding out absolutely EVERYTHING you can about the man before you ever consider being seen by him. This would include talking to as many individuals as is possible who've benefited (or not) by following Mr. Wickey's herbal regimen. Finally, I suggest that both doubters and adherents of this type of alternate treatment, i.e., where a charismatic individual is the treating practitioner, go to their local library or bookstore (or logon to the absolutely outstanding Amazon Books <http:/amazon.com> on the Web) and get a coupla-three books about the late Edgar Cayce. Cayce was quite incredible and his treatments were thoroughly documented and recorded. FYI.... Out of curiosity, and since I haven't read anything about Cayce in many years, I just popped on over to Amazon books (Ohhhh, I looooove that Web-place!), did a "search" using "Edgar Cayce" as the key words, and found several HUNDRED titles listed. Most of Cayce's own writings were there and there were TONS of books by other authors discussing Cayce the man, Cayce the practitioner, and Cayce the mystic. Lotsa interesting reading there.

Wickey? He is located in southern Indiana and his business card description says Iridology and Herbs. His does not have a telephone number on his card. From what I understand he can best be described as an Herbal Practitioner. He is Amish and books appointments a year in advance for Tuesdays and Wednesdays. The one day of the week Monday, he has open for walk-ins, he will see people on a lottery basis or luck of the draw. Each appointment includes everybody in the car you came in, so bring the whole family. Evidently there are people visiting him from all over the world. Also, he accepts no payment of any form. I heard an amazing story today from a stable and reliable associate of how Mr. Wickey prescribed a combination of diet and herbs for my associate's wife who was suffering from what was diagnosed as Lupus. She suffered for six years until seeing Mr. Wickey and went into what should be called remission after taking his prescribed regimen. I knew for sure she had Lupus, but I just today heard the rest of the story. Her specialist is baffled but agrees she can reduce her regularly scheduled visits to an annual blood test. Does this make sense to anyone? Is it just luck or is there something to this? Larry Fleming [log in to unmask]
