Amber 10/28/2014 1:26:15 PM | Hey guys! So here we are in our 14th month on the protocol and diet. As most of you know my entire household has morgellons to varying degrees. My intention in posting today is to bring hope to all. I was the sickest of everyone, or at least it appeared so. I wont go into extreme detail but, lets just say I was feeling as if the disease didn't kill me, I would be forced to take my own life. The torture that I was experiencing was beyond comprehension. My life has definitely been challenging on many levels and I've always endured through the lords strength. This time is no different, it just took a lot of trust and faith to get past the worst of it. So where I'm at today...I feel really good most days. Im not symptom free yet but, I am sleeping soundly in my own bed, I can think clearly, I only have to shower once a day, I'm exercising, I've got my creativity again, I feel happy most of the time and I feel comfortable loving on my children again. My youngest who was almost as sick as I was and recovering from cancer treatment is doing wonderful and his blood work proves that the protocol and diet are really working. He has returned to school and his teacher says he's really excelling this year. My teenagers are also doing great, especially my son who has struggled for a few years before morgellons. He's attending school everyday and says he really feels like he can absorb what he is learning and his grades are steadily improving. My daughter is also excelling in school this year. She used to feel very tired and couldn't do everything that she wanted. Now she is not only doing well in school but, is also serving the lord by volunteering in the preschool at our church and designing props for the theatre at school. The kids barely itch anymore at all and get only an occasional bump. Usually those things only happen during moon cycles. Which doesn't make me worry, because I know its part of the process. All 3 kids are on a modified version of the protocol, as they didn't require as much to get better and of course diet. I focus, and direct their focus to all of the progress and healing we've done so far when something comes up. Stress has been the biggest challenge and as we all know, life doesn't stop just because you're sick. We must push forward. My husband was showing some pretty significant symptoms but, never had some of the more disturbing symptoms, so it was very hard to convince him that he was sick with morgellons. I knew better of course. He has been doing so great on the diet. He's lost that extra weight and over time has excepted what we have. I think seeing me and our little guy so sick and then seeing us get well helped a lot. Because he was so resistant, it made everything that much harder. I discovered that talking about ways we can be healthier, instead of bringing up morgellons really helped to get him on board. He's a beer and football kinda guy, so the fact that he's given up beer is amazing. The lord really answers prayers! Finally, my Mom ....I haven't talked about her much. When my son was diagnosed with cancer back in 2010 and we were told he would need 3 + years of treatment, she came to stay with us to help out. She was widowed and needed help too as she was not old enough to collect social security and my dads pension had run out. She was unwell and overweight. My fathers unexpected death had really took its toll on her. So we were helping eachother out. She is my angel and such a blessing in my life. The fact that the possibility that she could become as ill as me, scared me to death. So when she started showing some symptoms, it broke my heart. I explained to her how the diet could be really life saving for her in so many ways and she agreed to get on board. She currently has no symptoms and/ has lost a total of 75 lbs!! So many of her health issues have resolved. I feel like something for everyone to keep in mind here is the importance of eating healthy and getting rid of as many chemicals in your life as possible. Also something as simple as drinking enough water. Water is so very important and if you're not drinking enough, it could make a huge impact on the way you feel. Remember, we take a lot of stuff on a daily basis. Things are dying off and drinking plenty of water will help to push it out. Adding in that lemon will greatly help with detoxification and keeping those kidneys healthy. None of this is easy. I didn't think it was even possible. Our diet and lifestyle was just awful and there are so many of us. I'm here today to tell you that it is possible. There have been times I wanted to give up, I'm so glad I didn't. I have excepted that I am doing everything I can to get us well and we will be completely free of this when the lord sees its time. In the meantime, I stay in the fight. Life is once again bearable, good again, even. We have made so many sacrifices in order to afford the cost of healthy eating. I know that once I can return to work, it will change. It wont always be this way and things just keep getting better. Diet, protocol, lifestyle change and faith will get you there. Believe it!! I have so much love for you all! I couldn't have done any of this without the help I've found here. I consider the people here my family. I've been shown true love through this website. Don't lose faith or hope! If you stay the course, you will get better. Praying for a better tomorrow! Love and peace to all of you. Blessings, Amber & family |
