I am 31 yr old female- Wife, Mother, daughter, granddaughter, sister, niece, cousin, friend- you get the point.
Like everyone else their has been so many beautiful & not so beautiful moments throughout, my journey thus far whether in those moments it felt as if the world stopped as my very first boyfriend dumped me when I was 14 or 26 looking at the man of my dreams in the eyes as we said our vows, or holding my babies for the first time-my world stopped.
our world stops in the moments that feel as if nothing is left and you can’t carry on but we also stop during the most beautiful moments & embrace it … you see if you don’t stop in the earth shattering moments you will never embrace the good moments for what they are… life is the biggest & scariest roller coaster you will ever be blessed too ride … with so many ups and downs & so many frightening twists! Not just you, not just me, everyone is on this beautiful ride we call life only we all have different frightening turns and beautiful moments at different times ….
What brought me to this point in my journey was another case my world stopped.
I had just started a new career in a law firm after graduating with honours as a Paralegal….just when I thought I had my life sorted out and was on my way to a bigger brighter future ….
……It happened…
……That fait-full morning happened….
I woke up with a terrible numb tingling feeling from my hips to my toes…its lasted nearly 3 Months ….in & out of ER …while doctors just prescribed me different anti inflammatories & pain killers every time ….pill after pill after pill…. I felt as if no one was listening too me…. as if my mind was playing tricks on me and what I was feeling wasn’t even real.. I can not even describe the amount of frustration I felt …
Until the final visit to ER changed all of that when my then fiancé now loving husband demanded an MRI.
my MRI shows lesions down my spine.
Ok so truth is I was searching for answers but this day when I received my answer I wished so badly I hadn’t fought so hard to hear this answer because…
In conclusion the doctors diagnosed me with MS –
But by the time the results were in I had been seeing chiropractic excersing and taking many new vitamins… I felt better than Ive ever felt…. Free of any and all symptoms..
so as they were explaining too me options to offset symptoms of MS with steroids in every different shape & form…. trying to convince me if I did not take these drugs I would be bed ridden in 5-10 years…. I’m not saying it can’t happen but I wasn’t going to let it happen too me! so yes My world stopped yet again but this time not for a moment more like years ….. this news consumed my every thought every breathe it swallowed me whole…what if I take the medication and become weaker, what if I don’t and become bed ridden…damned if I do damned if I don’t – kind of feels.
Eventually I made the a brave, very bold & some or most would say stupid decision too decline all help being offered too me from a medical standpoint and focus on starting my new improved healthy lifestyle because by this time I had googled MS almost daily and slowly began too see these medications are simply masking a symptom ( which I was no longer experiencing) and are said to prevent symptoms returning in the future while at the same time hurting organs and cells that in-fact are simply not being effected by my MS.
Google just simply has far too much information and is very overwhelming which in return started to create anxiety… So I decided to start a Holistic Nutrition course …. I knew what my body needed but just needed to fully understand what it was doing for me …
so here I am ready to share my story with hope that even one piece of info you read in this book helps either yourself or a loved one wether it be ms, cancer, diabetes weight loss or just simply choosing a healthy lifestyle ..
I mean really who are we trying to fool here .. you only have one place to live your body!! Going for an oil change in your truck every 3 months? Tune up or breaks ? Why not cleanse your body .. detox .. exercise… vitamins to keep your body performing & functioning at its best much like you truck!
because yes it might be true to say
better late than never but why wait?
After all sooner is better than later right?
