Rather Be Healthy

Lucky…
When I was initially diagnosed with multiple sclerosis back in February 2004, I’d been living and working in Denver, Colorado after I’d moved there from my home in England, I was of the opinion that the woman I’d married would honour the marriage vows we had said, y’know “for richer or poorer, better or worse and in sickness or in health”… apparently she ignored them because 4 years after my diagnosis she was unfaithful with a rich and successful Mexican dude.
I’ve mentioned before that my life prior to MS was a very physically active one, I’d done 834 skydive’s, I was actually in the Guiness Book of Records in 1989, I was a Hang glider, Scuba diver, Mountain biker, Rock climber and a Pilot.. because of many long and hard day’s at work I had been reasonably successful which enabled me to have some fast…very fast bikes , I had also traveled around the world. more than most people, so you could say I’d been living a good life.

Upon diagnosis with MS, the neurologist called me an idiot because I categorically refused medication, on top of being told I was an idiot, the neuro also said I’d be in a wheelchair permanently within 6 months, HAH!!!!, never happened….
3 years after diagnosis I was still working full time and was employed as the Client service director for the World leading authority in biological dentistry and body chemistry rebalancing, in 2011 my symptoms were obvious and creating problems, I lost my job and after 3 months had no unemployment or disability benefits. I struggled a great deal and about 6 months later after my savings had all gone, I knew I would lose my apartment and my truck, so I was in deep doo doo’s or up shit creek without a paddle.
With help from my incredible mum and sister Suzie, I was able to return to England, four years later I learned of and started on the Ann Boroch protocol which in all honesty has saved my life.
So ignoring the defeatist’s and paying no attention to the statement of MS being incurable, I’m actually healing my body, I’m only half way there so far, but that means being healthy, having no symptoms of any disease and actually living a life as opposed to existing. This is my goal and it’s a very realistic one, it’s happening to me, as it has for thousands… yes thousands before me…. how am I doing it? It’s because I’m not a defeatist I’m not negative and I believe and have faith in the ABP, even after all I’ve been through, and this is only a sample of the crap that’s happened in my life, so maybe I’m just….

Just a desire…
The group I’m with is a closed group of people that have two things in common, firstly they have multiple sclerosis, secondly that they genuinely want to rid their body of it… I’ve written numerous times that it’s not impossible, it can be extremely difficult of course, but if a person genuinely wants something, they’ll do whatever is necessary to achieve it…
Everyone in the group is encouraged to post their problems, difficulties and progress…. all three happen so sharing with others who’ve been there before who in turn respond and share their own personal experience will significantly help. We want to inspire and motivate others to achieve what we know is possible.
Sadly there are nay sayers and trolls hell bent on jeopardizing the opportunity given to others, why? Well maybe it’s because their own lives have been ruined by the disease modifying drugs they were encouraged to take… or maybe, just maybe that they themselves are not really sufferers of MS but a troll employed by big pharma to restrict others from healing while perpetuating the disgusting profits made by the Drug Pushers..
There are questions asked, checks made and research done prior to being asked to join our group, we dont let just anyone have access to the various sections, but when cleared and accepted then all member information is free to be seen and all current and previous members have the choice to communicate with others.
I want to clarify the joining fee and monthly membership costs… Hmmm, what was that again… Oh yes it’s Zilch, Nothing, Nada…the only requirement to join is…
Just a desire to have your life back

Some people…
Every month I’ve noticed new people joining the various MS groups that are primarily for ms sufferers that are grouped together to give moral support and very little else. Some of them seem to be living in a very negative world and have absolutely no thoughts or belief in healing. These people write negative comments to anything positive or optimistic about the future.
The group I’m in are actively following a very specific protocol that truly works, the Ann Boroch Protocol was created by Ann Boroch obviously who healed herself… yes HEALED her body of the damage caused by the various symptoms collectively called Multiple Sclerosis. The process was’nt done overnight, it isn’t a quick fix pill, it took 4 years. Those 4 years were to slowly eliminate the foods…..yes foods that had been exacerbating the problem, then to repair, to enable the body to heal itself.
I think the pharmaceutical industry have completely bamboozled the general public and the medical profession into believing that the disease is incurable..the fact is the disease is incurable, but that’s not what we are attempting to do… big pharma try to negate one of the many symptoms. Yes their drugs can ease a symptom but the cause… the real issue is ignored and just gets worse.
It’s no wonder that most people have the negative pessimistic view, I feel bad for them but as long as I’m part of this group and getting better everyday I’ll continue to write and feel privileged.
Some people have no confidence and are rife with pessimism, luckily…
I’m not some

Calm…
Following a specific program such as the Ann Boroch protocol which has healed thousands, is a very specific and detailed change of life, I know from my 29 months so far that I’m on target to be symptom free with a “healed” body in a couple of years. I cant expect or believe I’ll be healed exactly after 4 years, everyone is different, from age now, age when they were diagnosed, lifestyle, how strictly they adhere to the plan and thousands of other variables.
A phrase I use quite frequently is “In the main” meaning overall I’m very happy about what I’m doing and the progress I’m making…
However…. over the last week I’ve experienced certain “issues” I hadn’t expected which during a few minutes of confusion had been quite worrying…
I’ve said before that I have a “hummingbird bladder” water tends to want to come out minutes after it goes in, obviously that in itself has been problematic, I’ve needed to drink at least 4.5 litres a day, so visits to the loo have been frequent, 25 times wasn’t unusual although it’s now down to 15…woohoo!! (Sarcasm).. I think it was last Monday that I needed a #2 first thing instead of my usual daily visit at 10.30… afterwards I felt ridiculously weak throughout my whole body.. That’s happened everyday since then..
Confusion and frustration had
been dominating my thoughts until Friday…Yesterday.. Now my thinking has taken a completely different tack, one that is actually pleasing me, I might be wrong but I dont think I am.
This disease is a hideous, devious, selfish, dont give a crap about anyone else but me thing and I believe it knows it’s on the losing team, it knows because I’m following the butt kicking ABP that its soon to be evicted from my body, so its kicking and screaming with a vengeance and desperately clinging on to whatever it can get its grubby claws into.
As I’ve said, I might be wrong, but I don’t think I am, I believe I’m on the verge of a major breakthrough, not complete healing of course but a big step in the right direction, I actually think this is the…
Calm before the storm

Needs…
As we progress along into this very detailed program that was designed, not to cure anything, but specifically to “heal he body”, it is very easy to make the mistake of choosing to substitute a food that is compliant for a food that tastes nice but is not compliant, Why? More often than not, its simply because of an overriding desire by our taste buds…I know during my first 6 months there were many times that the normal human side of me craved certain tastes or textures which led me to chew on a food that satisfies that overwhelming desire but created a problem…
I think it was probably a year or so that it became easier for me to stick to the required commitment, it was roughly at that time that there were far more good days than bad and a lot more choices even though they were not as tasty.
A major influence in doing it right was the fact that when I made the right choices they were more often rewarded by more good days which in all honesty inspired me no end.. Ann Boroch very clearly stated that during the first few months that good day(s) would be followed by bad, there would be no surprises, just fact, do it right and positive results would follow.
As I’ve progressed on and now into my 29th month I’m rarely surprised, I have minimized the distractions because now it’s not a case of “I think”… now its “I know”… that being the case it’s a rare mistake for me to succumb to the “I want, I want” taste buds and comply with the “Do it right” nag in my head…
I know it’s hard, I know desires try and try to negate all the successes and improvements, but I’m order to succeed, to restore health, to heal the body you Have to Believe.. you Have to differentiate between,

not what your body Wants but..
What the body NEEDS

This path leads to…

We all have a variety of anniversaries that are celebrated, birthdays, marriages etc are ones we tend to receive cards for and are celebrated, today however is a very different anniversary in my life, but not one I’ll receive something bought from Hallmark or one I want to celebrate.
So what is it? Today is the 16th anniversary of when I was originally diagnosed with multiple sclerosis, I’d been living just outside Denver, Colorado in the USA, it was a devastating shock, even more so than it would be normally as it was only two years after I’d made the life changing move from England to marry.
However, on reflection this could be an anniversary of me ignoring the advice of the doctors or the anniversary of me standing firm against the rushing waters or me deciding and proving how to win against the odds.
There is also the difference that I talked about yesterday, falling in love and how this deep seated emotion is relieving stress and filling my heart with joy and happiness and giving me so much optimism for a life of love, which as I previously said, I thought would never happen again, now I know it is and it is making it so much easier to walk the path less travelled.
The path I’ve chosen to follow isnt the smooth, paved and easy path, instead I chose the incredibly challenging one, full of awkward obstacles, the one 99% of people wouldn’t take. But it’s the one with the greatest rewards, the one that gives me a prize far greater than the Euromillions jackpot… this path leads to the best reward ever…
This path leads to Life.

Whatever…
29 months in to this truly life changing protocol and I’m reasonably confident of my dietary understanding, I occasionally make mistakes, but hey… I’m only human not the superman a part of my male ego thinks. Over the last year I’ve found foods that are not just nutritious and compliant, but tasty as well, so I’m happy with my progression… mainly..
Occasionally, as happens to us all, I experience “issues” that appear to have no rhymn or reason and although I’m not taking a step backwards, I feel like I’m standing still and a little confused.
As I’ve said before, the human body is an extremely complex thing, the 37 trillion cells all with an aim and memory are easily contaminated but are not easy to repair especially when influenced by foods, water and many other things including emotions, which in reality can have a far greater impact on healing than the majority of people think. In my particular case, my emotions have been extremely mixed, I have to remember I left America where I’d lived in the beautiful state of Colorado for 11 years then moved again only a year after starting on the protocol. My wife back in 07 had been unfaithful then divorced me only 5 years after I’d moved from England, so there was a lot of negative emotions crammed into my brain.
But I’ve been very lucky of late in that I firstly accepted that what had happened in the past, was just that… the past, not now and it wasnt all my fault, yes obviously I was equally responsible for all that had happened, but there’s absolutely no point, no benefit in holding on to any negative emotions, so I forgave myself..
I can honestly say that there has been another change, this time for the better in my life, yes I’ve publicly stated how another feeling, a very special emotion has now taken over my life…. I fell in love, not just a crush or really liking someone, no this is completely different, this is unconditional love and I know Gaby has the same feelings for me.
So when I started on the ABP in September 2017 my goal was to heal myself and to live again. Now however not only have I accepted my situation and forgiven myself but I also have the benefit of knowing I’m not just doing this for myself, now the beauty of succeeding is so much more, so now other people’s views and opinions are theirs and they are entitled to them, but acceptance and love are mine and knowing that means in order to heal, I’m happy and will do….
Whatever it takes
