    His nephew did not comply with his advice and anyone that came to him for the cure he refused it. Sometime after he visited the grave of his uncle and to his great surprise all the herbs that his uncle told him to use in the cure were growing on top of his grave. He took this as a caution so he started the cure and many lives were saved through its means.
