Hello, Rose. My brother- a few years younger than me- has CF. A lung condition that affects him all the time. Recently, it’s been getting worse. He gets sick all the time, and the doctors keep throwing medications at us that only make him feel worse. I am a newer Wiccan, but I come from a large medical background. I just wanted to know if there was any kind of ritual or prayer that could help him feel better. I know this is a little bit of a odd question- and I apologize for that- but I really need to know if there is anything I can do to help him. Thank you very much. -Hazel

Merry Meet Hazel,
I can imagine your worries on the health of your brother. I am sure he is happy to have you help him and take care of him when needed. In Magick, we can transfer our health problems into other objects and enable them to go away thus removing the original sickness.
Here is a spell that will help your brother feel much better every day. I know it is easy to say that when someone is sick, everyone in the home needs to be upbeat, but that is the only way we can keep our thoughts positive. And, positive thoughts have the power to heal anything!
Illness Transference Spell
————————————
This spell will transfer the illness to a piece of powerful wood such as Elder or Hazel. Remember that you cannot just break a twig from the tree. Look for a branch that has already fallen from the tree and then break a piece of it gently. Also leave a libation to the tree for helping your brother heal.
Remember that this spell should be worked by your brother. You may help him though.
For this spell, you will need a small, clean pin or needle, and a stream that runs away from you.
Step 1: In Silence, stand by the stream.
Step 2: Take hold of the elder or hazel stick.
Step 3: Using the needle or pin, carve your name on the wood.
Step 4: Using the pen knife, make three grooves on the wood.
Step 5: Now gently prick your finger and fill the grooves with your blood. While doing so, visulaize your illness being transferred into the wood.
Step 6: Feel the relaxation and joy of life as your illness recedes and removes completely.
Step 7: Now throw the stick over your left shoulder into the stream that quickly takes it away from you.
Step 8: Now all you have to do is to walk away without looking back!
Brighest Blessings Hazel
Rose.
