WOW! As a Recovering Allopath myself (a conventionally trained medical doctor who “got over it”!), I could really relate to this heart-felt tale of a long-suffering woman further victimized by the very system from which she sought healing. Plagued by illnesses, infections, allergies, accidents, & injuries from the age of 6 months, Ms. Buzot--trained in pharmacology herself--often fared worse after the multitude of aggressive medical interventions foisted upon her by the conventional Sick Care System. After decades of relentless pain yet unrelieved by escalating medication use & narcotic addiction, she begged her children to assist her in euthanasia to end her misery. Then, in desperation, she discovered homeopathy.
Throughout the industrialized world, we in health care professions are, indeed, brainwashed by modern pharmaceutical-dominated “medicine”--THIS is the “alternative” medicine, which supplanted time-honored, natural, holistic “traditional” therapies (that work!)! My own personal experience 25 years ago was life-changing (life-saving?)--at a time when I didn’t even BELIEVE in homeopathy! Ms. Buzot’s dramatic story--simple, honest, vulnerable, & powerfully engaging--should be REQUIRED READING for every politician before they vote on legislation impacting homeopathy!

Today, there are many diseases for which modern medicine cannot radically cure; one of them is myalgi. My friend, Güngör Buzot suffered from this disease for years and finally got the help of alternative medicine. As a result, both Güngör and homeopathy gained. This book, in which she describes the disease process and the healing journey, can be an alternative guide for patients in similar situations.

Those who have long struggled with illnesses, ailments, addiction, or life challenges that immersed them and their loved ones in battles will find I Was Dying… Then I Changed My Mind filled with much food for thought not only about alternative approaches to healing, but required psychological changes that need to accompany any true move towards lasting health.

“This is the story of one such journey where a mother wants to end her painful life, a daughter refuses to give up, and holistic healers work together to save a woman in pain.”

The author found herself in a crisis - taking prescribed medications that did nothing to heal her. She describes her path to removing these medications from her life, the withdrawl she went through, and how she because clean. An almost 5 star book. But what was really frustrating for me...she doesn't mention the herbs/supplements she used in order to help boost her system during withdrawls. This is really important information! She includes all the "healers" (accessible thru books, youtube, etc) that restored her spirit. and helped her along the way. But, the lack of information on the supplements/vitamins was disappointing.

Güngör Buzot's story offers incredible hope and warms your heart. Her years of long battle with illness, the pain she endured due to incorrect treatments and even considering euthanasia as a last solution, tell the tale of a true warrior.
While reading Güngör Buzot's book, you will find yourself both overwhelmed by tears and smiling with hope. Her determination and resilience help individuals re-discover their strength.
I am one of the fortunate people who had the chance to know Güngör Buzot in person. At the time of reaching her, I was in a helpless situation due to a doctor's mistake. I couldn't wear shoes, couldn't walk and my toes were on the brink of gangrene. Güngör Buzot introduced me to the miracle of alternative medicine. Her guidance and treatment methods were a real salvation for me.
Güngör Buzot is not only limited to her own healing journey but also has dedicated herself to healing others. Knowing her is an experience that can change one's life forever. My biggest thanks to her!

I started the book this morning at 6:30 with my coffee and could not stop. WOW is all I can say. I can appreciate it on so many levels. It came at a good time for me as I am questioning a lot in my life and recovering again from a bout of diverticulitis. This set back put me in a dark place but I must say that Gungor's book snapped me out of it. I thank her that she did have an impact on my life today."

Every person should have someone in their life who touches them with their magic hands and
makes them feels beautiful, guides them, and gives them hope. You have been of great value to
me for more than thirty years. You have set an example for me and many others with your stance
towards life, the way you deal with your illnesses and your positive messages. I learned about
Homeopathy from you.
Dear Güngör, thanks to my trust in you, I got rid of the terrible pain and inflammation in my
lymphs using this method. You provided the cure for my problem that even the doctors could not
diagnose and treat.
I am glad you exist, I am glad you have touched my life. May you continue to heal people with
Homeopathy and your light of life…

Life is full of miracles and now I want to share my miracle with you.
My son was born in November 2019 as a healthy and normal baby. After the first year
vaccinations were completed many problems started. First he lost eye contact, then he stopped
saying the words he had said until then, and he lost his joy. His intestinal health deteriorated and
he completely lost hıs appetite. The diagnosis of all the doctors we consulted were different and
they did nothing but confuse us. The pediatric metabolism physician explained that our child
suffered from this condition because he could not naturally eliminate the heavy metals and
mercury in the vaccines from his body, and that the natural environment in the intestine was
disrupted, and the brain-intestine relationship was broken.
I felt like I was in a dark well. While I was struggling with my own fears and anxieties that I
could not allay, Güngör entered our lives like an angel from the sky. She introduced us to
Homeopathy and a homeopath. As soon as we started using homeopathic treatment, my son
began to recover at an incredible rate. She did her best with a mother's compassion to comfort
me emotionally while following up with my son.
There are no more medıcatıons and no more antibiotics in our lives. I am no longer afraid when
my children have colds, fever or throat infections, because Homeopathy cures them quickly.
Güngör is a miracle with her own story. I am glad I got to know her. With endless gratitude and
love…
