Fountain Of Life

Molave

 

Dad was terminally ill. No known medicine can cure him, but we’re not ready to throw in the towel yet. We tried herbs, chants, rituals and such. Then I suggested urine therapy. I learned that aside from water, urine is composed mostly of excess vitamins and minerals, but more importantly, it contains antibodies to cure any illness, proof to the age-old claim that the body will heal by itself. In fact, it is the elusive fountain of life. I told Dad to consider it.

 

Though very weak, Dad gathered all his strength to say, “I’d rather die than drink that.”
