Dear Peter,
May I suggest or say this...that ignorance is not word that is part of
our vocabulary because it is not ignorance that we feel it is the lack
of media education during our lifetime that makes us "unaware" and the
ignorance is because so much inane and negativity on the part of much of
the media that makes us unaware. So don't feel as though you are
ignorant, you are, like many of us, unaware. So much to learn, but feel
this that with HOPE and knowledege coming from the right media will
make you aware of the great possibilities to wellness and quality life.
Yes, I have much to offer in the way of our experience and what has
worked for us in terms of conventional and alternative treatments, but I
also must make you aware that for each treatment that worked for us,
seems as though there are so many more advanced treatments in the way of
conventional and alternative that are making the headlines,,providing us
with so much more hope.
You needen't be rich to seek out ways and plans for wellness. The
necessity and determination to find methods, and there are many
inexpensive methods, will keep you busy just in the daily routine of
working on your program to wellness. There are many books on this
subject and they are inexpensive in paperback and the ones that
encompasses and provides much HOPE and detail about living and lifestyle
and conventional and alternative methods are the following:
Dr. Bernie Siegels "Love, Medicine and Miracles"
Dr. Carl Simontons "The Healing Journey"
Greg Andersons " 50 Essential Things to do When the Diagnosis is Cancer"
Anne frahms "Cancer Battle Plan
There are more, but these books were the most profound on our wellness
journey and daily planning to heal.
Take care and God Bless.
Pls e-mail me should you need further info.
Marty and Barb
