Mistletoe in its therapeutic effects on cancer patients and their family system
Based on two case studies, the personality structure of cancer patients is described. According to the author’s observation, caring, devoted individuals are often paired with a selfish, parasitic partner. While the patients themselves are treated phytotherapeutically with mistletoe preparations, homeopathically potentised Viscum album may be a remedy for their partners.
