MEMORIAL TO
|
Bill and I had been friends since the late sixties. We met when I put the "call" out that I needed people to come forth to help initiate "Inner Forum," an organization dedicated to the truth behind phenomena, mysticisim, and metaphysical thought, an organization which would bring to the public's awareness the underlying difference been what is real and what is not, what is sensationalism and what is worthy and evidential. He was part of that incredible group who gathered in my dining room that evening in Boise, Idaho, and said - let's do it. We did. Inner Forum ran for seven years, the last year as Idaho's first non-profit, metaphysical/spiritual corporation with a Board of Directors. (The corporation "died" the year after I did.) When Bill and two other naturopathic and acupuncture doctors were raided by an over-zealous Attorney General, determined to make a name for him- self, I came to Bill's defense. At my behest, all of his patients were invited to attend a meeting. Nearly a hundred came. I outlined a plan - grass roots activism - where through letter writing, newspaper reporting, television inter- views, radio stories - we could get all charges dropped. The response came in a loud roar no politician could dismiss. All charges were dropped in a reversal of judgment. I paid a price for this. Because my name appeared in the paper connected with "this group," I was threatened with being fired by my employer and with a divorce by my husband. Both were deeply em- barrassed by what I was doing and disagreed with my stance. Because at that time in my life I could not afford being unemployed nor divorced, I found another couple to take over the organization and I pulled out. I won, though, and the men were freed, their records cleared, and alternative medicine was honored. And I was there when Bill suffered a health reversal afterward. I just knew I had to stop by his office. The last patient left. I saw that he had a gray aura and told him so. We both knew what that meant; death was near. He was a Vet, so he checked himself into the Veterans Hospital within the hour. A thorough checkup revealed that he was indeed deathly ill and would die without immediate medical intervention. All medical diciplines have their place and their value. That night, Bill needed the allopathic approach. It saved his life. Very soon, I would need the naturopathic version to save mine. I had never been to Bill as a patient. But after allopathic specialists had done all they could in 1977, I was still crippled, still hurting, and far from well. For the very first time, I checked in as a patient under Bill's care. He did more testing than I had ever received in medical offices or at hos- pitals. His thoroughness impressed me. Then we sat down to discuss treatment. "I can do one of two things," he said. "I can treat symptoms and get you back on your feet, or, I can go back to the day you were born and back out of you every illness, every health problem you have ever had, with the goal of healing you at the causative level." Without hesitation I replied, "Let's go for cause." That is both the best and the worst decision I ever made. I got very much worse under his care and almost died again, but once I passed the breakthrough point, my health soared to a level of health I had never known before. It was a miracle. I can say without hesitation that Dr. William G. Reimer
was unsurpassed as a healer. I have never met his likes before or since.
As a friend, he was
a soul brother who understood life and death at a level few people can suppose.
Jeanie Reimer, his former wife, always loving partner and assistant, survives
him. She has gone on to work with angels in guiding people to make better
health choices, and has become a gifted health- care practitioner in her
own right. --PMH |
