I recently came across this amber necklace that my mother bought back after travelling in Europe.
She had bought it for its supposed health benefits - and she wore it often, in case it really worked!
I remember her showing it to her stepfather.

At the time, he was almost 100 years old, nearly blind - and confined to a wheelchair.
He took it in his hands and felt it. Then he handed it back, saying: When you don't need it, everything helps. But when you need it, nothing helps!
What did they believe it would cure? I wondered.
I found this information online :
Hmmm! Should I be a skeptic like my grandfather?! Or should I - like my mother - give it a try?!!
