A Life Lesson for All of Us

B'SD

29 Adar, 5778

Adar is a generally joyous month, but this year it has been challenging to feel light hearted. I have been focused on helping several people in dire medical or mental health straits for weeks. My time, energies and thoughts have been focused on their needs.

An unusual and related event happened this week: A complementary medicine professional reached out to me, due to my respect for the person's work and our mutual acquaintance with a patient (networking matters). We agree on the specific life-saving care that she needs.

This is not a small matter, as you will eventually learn.

With the patient's permission, I have prepared the text for a fund-raising campaign to enable the patient to benefit from a period of 'round-the-clock treatment and observation in this professional's care. The therapy is not simple nor cheap. But it can dramatically improve the patient's quality of life, and it's continuation.

The recommended therapy is not readily available. It must be carefully prepared by someone who knows exactly what they're doing, and with full comprehension of, and compassion for, the patient's needs.

Stand by for the pending announcement when I notify you of the launch for that fund-raising campaign. It will be quite a departure from the usual fare at this blog. 

I have never advocated for a specific person or practitioner before. I plan to do so in the foreseeable future. I'm convinced of the life-preserving necessity to do so. 

A life lesson for all of us is in the making.

Help Yourself at The Whole Health Forum!

12 Tevet, 5777

Last year I was among the featured speakers at The Whole Health Forum. A fact-filled, international get-together of people experienced in Alternative, Western, plus Complementary healing strategies and successes, it was a fun experience for everyone who participated in the event. 

Board-certified doctors, alternative healers and people who'd healed or improved their health somehow were part of the crowd. We educated our audiences who dined on delicous whole foods between sessions.

I'd like to you to help me to "spread the word about the Whole Health Forum" coming up this spring!

Who knows? Maybe we can meet each other there.

Help Yourself at The Whole Health Forum!

12 Kislev, 5775

As I count down the days until Chanukah, a time of spiritual light, an unusual proposal came my way.

Some  business people are putting together a collection of uplifting television programs. They asked me to join the team and to launch a show about the healing plus coping possibilities in the eastern, western, and alternative healing worlds.

Why?

Because my journey from blind to sighted, from death's door to astonishingly good health, is miraculous. All the miracles came about with human effort. And with eastern, western, and alternative healing modalities.

Spirituality was a 

HUGE 

part of the picture. 

Optimism was, too. Even when I had to pretend to be upbeat.

Medical professionals eager to help patients with similar or other medical problems now take notes about all that when they examine or meet with me. 

Some of them, not on my regular medical team, schedule time with me so they can learn about my unconventional, sometimes standard, healing methods and progress.

I appreciate the opportunity to share information with the world at large.

So, I've begun preparing experimental scripts, themes and more for the proposed show.

But I need to know something as I continue my work:

What do YOU want to see and learn as you EMPOWER Yourself to Cope with a Medical Challenge on TV?

Feel free to send questions you want answered, topics you'd like to be addressed.

The launch date for the show is several months from now. You can be part of the preparation process.

I look forward to hearing from you.

A Health-promoting Day in Many Ways!

25 Av, 5773

I was at an event in Jerusalem today that led to several gratifying surprises.

Called The Event, it was for helping immigrants adjust to employment and other aspects of life in Israel.

It was crowded! I struggled to keep my balance (and sometimes failed) as people pushed against me between the aisles of multiple displays.

But here's the happiness factor of it all:

I met zillions of people whom I know. New acquaintances stopped to tell me how much their lives improved due to reading

I met world-famous biz whiz Issamar Ginzberg in passing and he remembered that I authored the book.

A guy in the alternative healing world asked to do a business project with me within minutes of meeting me - because he likes how I interacted with people and that EMPOWER Yourself  presents many holistic, alternative and complementary healing options available to you. 

And he told me that Israelis have invented something so cutting-edge that it will put Google Glasses into the past. Blind people are able to see with this innovation. WOW.

Wait'll I inform you in a future post about how he heals psoriasis!

A Facebook friend recognized me in the crowd. He introduced me to his alternative healer wife, and she joined acquaintances giving me leads to meeting healing body work professionals.

Several individuals expressed interest in my medical coding expertise. I'm studying for certification in ICD-10 medical coding, as I've indicated before. 

ICD-10 coding goes into effect in the USA in October 2014 (other countries use the system already. Israel uses it to a limited extent). 

It will change the way US doctors, insurers and medical coders communicate. Expertise in how the system works will facilitate optimal insurance reimbursements for healthcare providers and patients (YOU if you hold American health insurance of some kind), and likely improve statistical efforts.

A magazine publisher stopped to chat with me about the compliment for my work that a reader sent to his biztalk page.

And just about everybody quoted my blog or the book during our conversations.

I spent lunchtime with a dear friend visiting from abroad. I've networked to the max and now I have to unwrap all the free gifts given out over there.

I'm still feeling the sense of fun I gained from what I'd expected would be a dull and dreary, but necessary, networking experience. Instead of handing out my resume, I made new friends, enjoyed old ones, and look forward to a rewarding future.

Hippocrates and Health: WHAT Would He Say Today????

B'SD


6 Tamuz 5772


I had the extraordinary pleasure of meeting Dr. Brian Clement of The Hippocrates Health Institute today. He was one of the presenters at a healing strategies conference I attended. We chatted a bit during a break.


The good doctor validates many of the healing things you'll read about in the blog and in E-book or print edition

Want to know what I learned today? 

A) 93% of chemotherapy patients die 
despite their "therapy"

even if they've experienced 
a remission of their cancer. 

B) Autism and diabetes are 
the fastest-growing diseases 

in the Western world. 

Why? 

Commercially prepared foods and synthetic medications (including commercially prepared "vitamins") loaded with synthetic this or that, pesticides, coal tar and turpentine (YES) undermine the human immune system. 


I can't capably summarize the scientifically validated presentation I witnessed for several hours, but I can assure you that the information is publicly available and ignored, misunderstood or misrepresented.

One more thing: Dr. Clement has helped people to recover from many debilitating diseases and to toss away their medical appliances and medications. He even helps people to lose their cancer without using chemotherapy. How? With pure, life-supporting food and strengthened spiritual efforts. 

Hippocrates recommended that centuries ago. So do naturopaths today. You can read about that in EMPOWER Yourself to Cope with a Medical Challenge. Buy it at http://booklocker.com/books/3067.html

WHAT do you suppose Hippocrates would say if he knew how humanity is ruining its health with every mouthful of non-nutritious junk sold as "food" and with doctors poisoning already fragile bodies?

I'm back to regular blogging now that the Jewish new year season has ended, eager to continue building the world of kindness that The One Above wants from us. And I bet that you can reduce your stress at finding out how to cope with a medical problem by reading my book.

One of the maddening things about illness is that it takes SO MUCH TIME AND EFFORT to find the right doctor, to gather the money for expensive treatments, and to cope with the boredom, the pain, the fear and other complicating factors of being sick.

The good news is that I've reduced your workload. You don't have to spend frustrating hours, days, and weeks searching for much of the information that you or someone you know needs. My book teaches you coping strategies AND it gives you the Who, What, Where, How, and Contact Information for resources you want in just one sitting!

The fonts are large to help readers with vision problems. I wrote the book from the patient's perspective.




I bet that you can locate necessary information in my book within 3-4 hours. That'll free you up with time to enjoy life more as your coping/healing efforts zoom forward.

Turn your research efforts into a 4-hour workweek when you click on BUY YOUR COPY of It's My Crisis! And I'll Cry if I Need To: A Life Book that Helps You to Dry Your Tears and to Cope with a Medical Challenge TODAY!

7 Sivan 5768


Judging from the many responses to the BHRT Summit advertisments on this blog a short while back, and the increasing sales of my book, it's becoming obvious that readers are benefiting from my writings.

Readers Agree with Me: We CAN Break Through Barriers to Cope and to Heal to the the greatest extent of human capability.

My "Can-Do Strategies" for dealing with medical problems puts much of the control of your medical future in your own hands: YOU decide how you will respond to various medical complications. YOU take positive action(s) that can produce desired emotional and/or health oriented results.

YOU CAN DO SOMETHING TO IMPROVE YOUR CIRCUMSTANCES.

My book highlights Alternative and Complementary Medicine endeavors. They literally made a Life and Death difference to me after my medical crisis in 2005. My organic foods and lifestyle continue to help me break through barriers and "generally expected limitations" until today. That's why my vision continues to improve against Western Medical guideline expectations and why my eyewear prescription continues to fall. It's how I beat the odds of having a horribly broken arm amputated in 2007, succeeding instead with innovative surgery and follow-up therapy.

Make the decision to heal/cope with medical challenges.
Be willing to think outside conventional practices.
Doing so helps countless numbers of people bedsides me to manage better in the face of medical crises.
Let such decisions and actions help YOU, too.

The return to natural living and healing methodologies is affecting the world of Western Medicine. The NIH (National Institutes of Health) is even accentuating the natural healing arts. Check out this recent National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine press release announcing the NEED for health care providers and patients to discuss nonconventional healing methods.

Don't care to read the whole report? Then just focus on these highlights for pursuing Complementary and Alternative Medicine protocols in your healing/coping endeavors:

PATIENT TIPS FOR DISCUSSING CAM WITH PROVIDERS

-- When completing patient history forms, be sure to include all therapies and treatments you use. Make a list in advance.
-- Tell your health care providers about all therapies or treatments -- including over-the-counter and prescription medicines, as well as herbal and dietary supplements.
-- Take control. Don't wait for your providers to ask about your CAM use.
-- If you are considering a new CAM therapy, ask your health care providers about its safety, effectiveness, and possible interactions with medicines (both prescription and over-the-counter).

PROVIDER TIPS FOR DISCUSSING CAM WITH PATIENTS

-- Include a question about CAM use on medical history forms.
-- Ask your patients to bring a list of all therapies they use, including prescription, over-the-counter, herbal therapies, and other CAM practices.
-- Have your medical staff initiate the conversation.

Keep praying! The One Above is in charge of our progress. Our job is to make that progress possible with improved attitudes and efforts.
