As astonishing as is the number of new community members over the course of several months, even more astonishing is that nearly 50% are men, and yet rarely do we hear a lot from men. Guys - I know where you're at. It's one thing to understand that, by the way we're generally wired, we tend to care about the 'report' as opposed to 'rapport'. Getting in touch with ourselves emotionally is not a strong suit of ours, and that's just in normal daily living. Throw in this nightmare of a disease where we feel completely helpless, out of control, and no one to talk to who will understand our situation, and it's easy for us to shut-down completely. Now more than ever is not the time to shut-down. We need to be strong and fight for our lives. Many of us men here have families to support and the best way we can do that is to be the best version of ourselves, and that starts with regaining our quality of life. Being vulnerable and open to share our feelings of what's going on and getting support from this community is what's going to save us. Reading/posting in the forum, participating in weekend conference calls, prayer and fellowship, and coaching with Mel will put us in the right direction of healing. But it takes that first step - the most difficult, most challenging of steps. We need to be vulnerable and willing to trust that this is the place we're meant to be to get well. I'm not always posting or reading, sometimes I miss a meal's worth of taking the protocol supplements, and I don't always use my coaching the way I should. I'm nowhere near perfect in any of this. But I do desire to live a quality life and find joy in the things I love doing most. That alone is enough to keep coming back, not just for myself, but by helping others along their journey. Men - we have no idea just how much value we add by engaging in this community. I encourage all men in this community, me included, to amp up when it comes to engagement. Read and comment, or start a new post, join a Saturday conference call with questions of your own (you may even have answers that can help others), a Sunday prayer and fellowship call to give and receive the power of prayer, use your coaching and get guidance from the MAN who's cured himself and so many people with this disease. This is how we can not only get better, but provide help to others also striving to get better. And if I can be of any help in terms of accountability and support, I can be reached right here. What do you say, men? God Bless Joe | |||

Dear Dale, I get so many scam request for friendships on facebook, I didn't recognize yours til later, when I looked up your last name. Please request friendship again on facebook and I will accept. I send many positive, funny, and spiritual posts to my relative and friends and would love to have you and your wife as friends! I will look for you and request yours but, if you don't get it, look for me and resubmit your request. How are you doing? Do you need help with symptoms or any food advice etc..? I would be glad to help! Post or seek me on facebook and one day soon Mel will give you my phone #. Also, I recommend a friendship with Brian, he is a dear brother here and is doing so well: he is serious (strongly serious) about getting well !! Hang in there, brother, we have your back and we are warriors in Christ, the victory is ours!!! Thinking of you and your family! Yours In Christ, Rockin Robin | |||

Dear Dale, I can't tell you how emotional I got reading your post! Mel told me it was good and to go read it. He was right, I nearly cried! I also went to 10 different kinds of doctors and blew my Savings of over $10,000.00 dollars and got no help and was made to feel crazy, ridiculed and ashamed! One doctor scolded me for making it up and recommended Zoloft (an anti-depressant). Many of us have about the same story. It is truly sad! Yes, thank God above for Mel and his community and website!! God works here!!! My heart goes out to you because you have children. Life can be so full, busy, emotional, as it is, without having to deal with this horrible disease and all of its worrisome aspects!! But, you now have the answers, the plan, and the tools to get well!! Now it is in the right time and God's will. Hang in there friend, we all support you and you will keep getting better!! I am so thrilled and proud of your participation on the phone calls and posting!! You are so right, sharing is so....important!!!! I thank God everyday for Mel and other members who have supported me and gave advice and helped me and are still helping me through this journey. Where would I be without them all?? It is a frighting thought!! This is the best way to thank Mel and pay it forward. Participating and being active here keeps this website going for you and others who come seeking help and a miracle!!! Many who helped me are well now and gone. I in turn am now helping others and they one day will help new people who come. Like a ripple in a lake, God uses us all to help each other! And bless his heart, Mel, who has given his life to God with a promise that he fulfills everyday!!! Thank you for posting and sharing Dale!! I am praying for you and your family!! So very glad you are here! God Bless You!! Your Sister On Christ, Rockin Robin The Word tells us we are more than conquerors, we are mighty warriors, we can do all things through Christ who gives us strength!!! Amen! | |||
