Letter of thanks for medical treatment to Mahomet Allum
After eight years treatment for Sugar Diabetes by several Melbourne doctors and getting no relief, hearing of your marvellous cures, decided to place myself in your hands for treatment.
After taking your first powder the action from the bowels was most remarkable and the relief tremendous.
If I continue to improve like this after a few days treatment what more could I say than "God bless Mahomet Allum".
