The launch was constantly delayed for one reason or another so I had to wait patiently for it to happen, let me tell you it was not an easy thing to do.
Back to that terrible day in Florida, I had left the gym then called into Winn Dixie for my groceries then headed back to my condo on Anastasia Island. My condo was on the third floor, three steps from the top with hands clutching my sports bag and shopping bags I tripped. Not having a hand free to break my fall I used my face, ouch, not a good thing to do.
I opened my eyes to see teeth and blood sprayed out on the top step, The initial shock and the adrenaline surging through my veins stopped me from crying like a baby but needless to say, I was in a lot of pain.
My brother Brian and his family were staying in the condo next to mine so I clawed my way to his door and knocked, Jeni was the first to see me and the shock on her face frightened me, blood running through my fingers with my palm over my mouth.
Brian and Jeni were great, helping me to gather everything from the steps, then calling several dentists to find one that could see me now.
The next month went by very slowly which couldn’t be said for the money spent on fixing my teeth and my deepest thanks go to my incredible mum for her financial help.
So nice.
As you know, my situation, my condition is not the best but by no means the worst so everyday I count my blessings and express my gratitude in prayer and meditation. I woke a little earlier than normal this morning about 5.15 so after twenty minutes of playing Words with Friends I decided to soak in the bath. I’ve spoken of the wonderful benefits of magnesium chloride before so as per normal I soaked for an hour, I can imagine most would say they couldn’t possibly soak for an hour or more, it would be so boring.
Anyway I usually play one of the thousands of meditations available on YouTube, this way I know specifically how long I’m in. Anyway my point is that after an hour or allowing the healing mag chloride to soak into my body and listening to inspirational Tibetan meditation I got out. I really feel good, stronger and more stable so I know what I’m doing is really helping, this feeling is so nice.
I truly believe that where I am is a stop over point, this is only temporary because I know I have better things to do and better places to be. A lot of what needs to be done is through myself, my attitude and self belief, however any help I can get financially to help me have Stem cell therapy, however small will be much appreciated, please click the DONATE button on the right, thank you.
Could I..?
I think that everyday I imagine how it will be, not would be, but will be when I get my health back, what will I do? I really can’t imagine there’s anything that could take the place of what I did while working for Huggins Applied Healing in Colorado. I loved being in that beautiful state, yes for 4 months of the year it was a tad chilly but the summer and autumn or Fall as it’s called there was fantastic. I will have Stem Cell therapy and I will get better, it might not be 100% healthy but it will be as good as I was in the early years of having MS. Being able to help others is without a doubt so fulfilling to me and it’s something I hope to be able to do again. I have a wealth of experience and knowledge gleaned from working for a truly great man which I’d love to be able to put to good use.
So I will get healthy and I want to return to where I consider my home so the question is…Could I ?
I would be extremely grateful if you could help me keep my site open and donate what you can, any amount will help, thank you.
To most people, having to wait for something you’ve wanted, expected or paid for is shall I say a rather tedious and frustrating thing to do. You wait in line to pay for the shopping or queue up to get into the cinema, but whatever it is you know it’s just a part of everyday life, nothing you can do about it, it is what it is….
Sometimes it’s a case of working hard and saving a bit of dosh so you can go take the family on a nice holiday or vacation if you’re American, lol. As I said it’s just a fact of life, however what if the “Life” part is what you’re queuing up for….. slightly different thing now. The normal part of life in my case is things like “can I stand”, or “will I only need to go the loo 20 time’s not 25 today”. Don’t get me wrong, I’m so grateful that I’m able to do some things, there are some so much worse off than I, but it is frustrating, it is painful, it is embarrassing to know and feel so limited. Knowing my life was so different before, having memories of skydiving, hang gliding, scuba diving, mountain biking, rock climbing and flying is great. I have some very thrilling memories but it’s not as it is now. I experiment, I sample, I research and constantly try to change what the medical professionals tell me to give up hope of ever seeing again. But I know without a shadow of doubt that I will, because I am me and I have patience and this is a waiting game.

What does it say?
My view of Bill Clinton before I went to live in America was that he was a good president, as an Englishman living in England my view, my opinion was based on how he was portrayed by the British media, and in the main, as a man leading the most powerful nation in the world he was doing a good job. In reality he probably created more debt and less work efficiency than any previous president had done. He was an unfaithful man to his wife, he was publicly shamed for his sexual escapades with Monica Lewinsky and it’s likely there were others.
George W Bush was a great sports club owner and businessman but as a leader of a nation he didn’t come over as an intelligent man especially when public speaking.
I lived for eleven years in that beautiful country, half of it was under George Dubya and half under Obama. Living and working there is totally different than living in a different country and judging what happens and having an opinion purely based on what is reported via the media. In my opinion, based on living and working there is that Obama wasn’t good for the country. Yes the first lady looked and sounded good but that was as good as it got.
Now my point is this, the last three presidents have all had their faults, an unfaithful untrustworthy philanderer, a numb nuts and a Muslim who talked a good talk. Roughly half of America wasn’t happy at the time of each previous inauguration and certainly not during during the time they held office.
Now there is a president that started at the bottom in business, became a billionaire, lost it the became a billionaire again. Do you think he knows what he’s doing? Do you think he has a plan? Do you think he’s proven he can make things happen. You can bet your bottom dollar he does. While the previous three made a mess of it, did anyone riot and loot and protest? No they didn’t so what does it say about the people that are unhappy about Trump. Stop complaining and understand everyone has faults and opinions, give him a chance.

I often write about my current situation, my health and my daily challenges, I say this as a plural simply because that’s what it is or they are in my case. I normally wake between 5 and 6 a.m. even though I’m often still awake to after midnight. I’ve had to take something to help me fall asleep and it’s been that way for 20 plus years, my body seems to be ok with about 5 hours or just a bit less.
After the half hour in the bathroom then getting dressed I normally spend 30 or 40 minutes getting a light breakfast and my supplements for the day. Once that’s sorted I usually spend about 30 minutes doing my first of three exercise periods. Obviously the exercises would seem quite basic to most people but at the end of each session I am totally exhausted. That’s not a bad thing feeling absolutely exhausted compared to just very weak as my starting point.
I’ve completed two sessions so far today and it’s 1.45 in the afternoon, my routine today was different than normal and I think this is going to be how it is from now on. It can be a little frustrating knowing how weak I’ll feel for the rest of the day but not exercising would only speed up the weakening process so as tiring and frustrating as it is I know I have to persevere.

In 2012 I’d just been let go from Huggins Applied Healing because of my health, I totally understand and have no bad feelings toward the late Dr Huggins. At the end of the day it was probably the best thing for me and certainly less risk for the company. Having an accident at work in the States is very different from an insurance standpoint.
During that near four year period I learned far more about health and life than I ever could have done anywhere else. So a couple of months after leaving I decided to write a book about some of the things I’d learned. The book initially was called “Life after Huggins” but was changed to “Dentistry and how it’s damaging your health”. I thought the first title meant something to me but not explaining what it was about, so the name changed and it went on the shelf with Amazon as a Kindle book although it can be read with the Kindle App that’s free to download.
Anyway I’m writing this as a thank you to all the people that invested the grand sum of two quid on me.over the past 3 1/2 years several thousand copies have been bought. It pleased me a great deal that I’ve received several thousand questions and positive emails from people all over the world. It’s honestly shocked me when I’ve had emails from readers in China, Japan, Malaysia, Germany, Italy and several other European countries as well as thousands from The Americas. But I think I was most surprised when I had a question from a young woman in Bhutan.
So thanks again and I’m so pleased my book has helped so many people.

In 2002 I made a decision to go to the U.S., I chose to do this to be with a woman I’d been talking to. We had only been talking for two weeks before I decided to go and it was only 2 weeks later that we married. A very rash decision was made by she and I which only six years later ended in divorces.
I could look back and say it was a stupid mistake made by us both, but the decisions were made when we both had hidden agendas. Mine was because I wanted to be living in the US and hers because she was going through a difficult time financially and thought having a husband would help. Obviously we both had feelings for each other but there is no way it could possibly be perceived as love, it wasn’t really a marriage it was just cohabitation. Am I proud of it?….No. So in each of our own individual ways we were both selfish and as I said earlier the marriage ended six years later after she started having an affair. I can’t condemn her because of it, I wasn’t unfaithful but my motive for marriage was equally as misguided as hers.
I’ve no idea what or who happened in her life but in all honesty I hope it’s good. Again looking back both she and I did what we thought and probably was for the best for ourselves individually. In my case which is what I’m concerned about is that I met Dr. Hal Huggins who was a pioneer in his field of expertise. I didn’t realise it at the time but the 3 1/2 years working for him was the most rewarding time of my life so far. I talked with many thousands of people, some became patients and in later years some became friends.
So what started as two people making two very selfish decisions turned into an unforgettable experience, an adventure never to be repeated.
After being his Client service director, his sounding board and his friend I saw life in a very different way. He opened my eyes and helped me to help others and for that and for the honour of knowing him I am very proud and will be forever grateful.

It seems after watching another video of Mike Dooley that so many millions of people, me included have been going about manifesting the wrong way. He talks about how most people will attempt to do this by asking for specifics such as winning the lottery or finding love with a specific person. He explains why this is wrong and why most of us will never have success in any great magnitude. Our desires, our manifestation is just that, it’s uniquely ours not what someone else might want, desire or need.
We need to be focussing on the big picture not on the steps to achieve it, divine intelligence will work out the best route taking into consideration all options, all obstacles and diversions to reach and achieve our goal.
I personally believe in a higher power, some may identify this as God, some may chose universal intelligence. Whoever this is and I believe that He and It are the same, wants us all to live in good health and abundance. So have faith and confidence that the chaos of life has a purpose, no need to worry about the route, the direction because that doesn’t matter, it’s the end result that matters regardless of the steps and hiccups along the way.
