Trust, compassion, sincerity, quality - and efficiency!
Aged 56, I have been ill since the age of 10 and the last 12 years
have been hellish, really. Without medecine, I am in excruciating pain, sleep
less than one hour a night, can hardly eat and, even when I do, can’t
absorb food and become very thin and weak, cannot see at all well, can only
just move my limbs and walk (or crawl) in a very feeble way, always falling
over and having accidents, feel half-mad from the effort of controlling all
this and trying to manage. (I live alone and have no-one to help.) Ten
years ago, my 82-year-old mother, a wonderful lady who has now passed on,
sent me some medecine from London, where she lived; it was wonderful –
total relief, sleep, eat, walk, run, dance, laugh…. She couldn’t get any
more, though, and then started the new nightmare – the stealing, lying,
profiteering, sneering and treachery. Even my then boyfriend, even my
ex-husband, even my own son, for whom I had made staggering sacrifices…..
they all saw an opportunity and it was just rip-off, stealing and treachery
all the way; (I haven’t heard from my son since he took Ł2500 (over half my
annual income) saying he had arranged a year’s supply, but nothing arrived
and he just vanished with the money.) I was in a medical co-op – even they
started stealing from us sick people. So-called friends were the same. (I
did try to gas myself, but made a mess of it.) When I found René, I was in
two minds whether to write – I was sure it’d just be another heartless
scam. For 56 years, I had been trusting and, I hope, trustworthy, but at
that point, although I still trusted God, I couldn’t trust any human being.
Straight away, René replied, “I want you to know you have found
someone you can trust,” and, oh people, it was TRUE! Not only can you trust
René absolutely, but he trusts us, too – it’s a real human relationship; if
everyone were like that, this sad old world would be nearer to Eden. The
relief of being able to trust someone is second only to the relief of
having medecine. Thank you, René, thank you again.
The prices are more than twice what I’ve ever paid before, but the
quality is twice as good, you only need half as much – and best of all, it actually
arrives! So it’s not twice as expensive, in reality, but actually works out
less, because I was paying for stuff that was often rubbish and even more
often was stolen by the very people who were supposedly “helping”. Also, no
torn carrier bags here – a secure, tidy, pretty, soap-scented packet. And
he replies so kindly and politely to emails, although it must get on his
nerves sometimes.
René, you’re a star. May you have a long, healthy, happy life,
With love and best wishes,
Kate
