Morgellons - MEL

Hello, everyone.

After today’s call (Sunday), I felt really compelled to write this post.

I never speak for anyone but myself, and this is how I feel about Mel and my personal obligation to him.

For the past three years, there has been NO ONE, and I mean NO ONE, who has helped me more than Mel has. He has saved my life—that is a fact. When I came to him about a year and a half ago, my life was in shambles. I regularly thought about ending my life because I had almost run out of hope that there was any sort of help for this unspeakable disease. I am fairly sure that most people on the forum understand how it feels to lack family support (parents are either no longer living—or do not understand—or just do not offer unwavering support—or live too far away)...and the same goes from the friends we have in our personal lives outside of the deep friendships that many of us have on the forum. I have been blessed with some pretty open-minded and caring friends, but they are not like Anna or Donna or Karen or leslie or Maria or Donald or Cheryl or Chrissie or Tara...the individuals who have kept me from leaping off a high cliff in my darkest moments.

This is the reality, though...I would know NONE of them if not for Mel. Mel, single-handedly in his seventies, has given me the lifeline of this forum and a community of truly beautiful people that have kept me alive and fighting and hopeful in a “here on earth” kind of way.

I fundamentally realize that GOD is ultimately who has kept me alive and maneuvered me to Mel. I do not want ANYONE to think for a second that I do not realize that every day of my life. God is absolutely sovereign and knows exactly where my journey will ultimately lead.

I do, believe, however, that God knows what his children need. He knows my anxieties, my sadnesses, my fears...all of the emotional issues that might keep me from getting better if allowed to spiral out of control. That is what they were doing before my husband happened upon Mel’s site and called him about my plight. The rest is history.

I have definitely had my ups and downs. Sometimes, I need Mel more than at other times. Probably everyone has had the same experience. For ME, though, I will NEVER (not in a million years, excuse the hyperbole) be able to repay him. A million dollars will not do it, but if I had it, I would give it to him, without question.

This is how I repay Mel. This is how I am able to live with myself because I know that even this is not enough, and it will never be enough.

#1: I post...and I post...and I post. Every time a “regular” posts, forum attendance goes up, which means that Mel might have additional coaching clients. He needs those clients to SURVIVE. I do not think ANYONE wants to imagine the alternative...that Mel just cannot do what he does anymore. Yes, we would all have God. God does work miracles. I do not, for a second, think that God would ever abandon any of his children. I do not, however, want to think about what my life would be like without Mel’s practical advice about how to tackle this disease.

#2: I, like everyone else, is burdened by the cost of “the right foods” and the protocol. Mel makes excellent decisions about who needs to receive Foundation funds. Those funds are critical for some people who otherwise could not afford the necessary treatment that gives all of us a prayer of getting well. I spend $5 a month to be on the forum. I pay 100% for my supplements because I have a full-time job. I pay Mel a $100 a month, regardless of whether or not I utilize it. In recent months, believe it or not, I have not needed as much “practical” advice about the supplements, the WPS, the silver. Although I sometimes feel like I am only at 50%, I am sure I am at a much higher recovery place than that, despite all of my recent issues. As Mel recently told me, I have made tremendous progress DESPITE my GI issues.

#3: Mel has my unwavering, devoted support. He knows that. For ME, there is absolutely nothing that Mel could ever say or do that would make me love or appreciate him less. I have told him many times. He is the “earthly” father I no longer have. My poor father, who is just a few years older than Mel, has descended into the early stage of dementia at light speed. Just the other day, he had his driving privileges permanently revoked by his doctor. I cannot imagine how disheartening that was for him. Soon, my father will not know who I am. Mel will, though. He even remembers my area code now! (Those of you who have been around for a while understand that inside joke!).

As I said earlier, I only speak for MYSELF. Posting all of this felt right in my very humble heart. This disease has led me to understand that I need to be right with GOD, and part of that involves NOT being judgmental of anyone else, which I am truly not. I should have made this post a long time ago, and it is truly from the bottom of my heart.

Thank you, Mel. I could never do what you do every day. The adolescents I see every day are pretty much all healthy. They are young and have their lives ahead of them. Any burden they might be to me is so minimal. I think I probably burden Mel more than all of the students I have ever taught in my career, and there are thousands of them. How he takes on all of our burdens, I will never understand. God bless him for keeping his promise...that if he became well, he would devote the rest of his life to helping others.

Most sincerely,

Jamie

Morgellons - MEL

Hello Friends,

I must say Jamie left nothing unsaid.
This website (MEL) saved our lives.

Two years ago I was in a horrible state of mind. Thinking there is no way I can continue my life in this state of horror. But with the help of our dear Mel, I am at the end of this terrible disease.

This is the place to be if you want to get well.

It is not going to be easy. We have all had to totally change the way we live our lives. Our diets must consists of only what is listed in the forum. Like Ruth Ann said, "no more delicious goodies."

Mel has been well now 11 years and he now eats goodies.
So we all know once we get well we can once again enjoy having treats with sugar, once in a while.

I can honestly say during my recovery I have not once put anything bad in my mouth. I want to get well...and that means 100 percent!

I also want to thank everyone in the community for there support. It is amazing how we all help each other. You become friends and all of us need people who really understand our pain.

Mel is our rock. He understands our pain and our journey. He walks by your side guiding you to your recovery.

His coaching is priceless.

If you are sick and need help....email MEL.
It will be the best day of your life.

God Bless,
Terry

Morgellons - MEL

Mel,

I must have hit the wrong key as I was planning on saying more but things don't always go the way you want them.

So here goes -

I've been on the forum for about 8 months now. When I first found Mel's site I had no idea what to expect.
I read what I could, not being a member.

I did contact Mel and he called me, most don't do that. Good.
We talked and he asked me some questions. I had previously determined that I had Morgellons but he wanted to make sure.

Mel told me I could get well by following "the sum of the parts" and not giving up hope.
That gave me hope which I didn't have at that time.

I had researched a fair amount and no one offered me hope to get well.

Thank you Mel for your assuring me there was hope and I could get well if I would take the protocol, get on the conference calls and be diligent to follow what I learned.
I didn't really know what all that meant.

Following the diet plan has been the hardest for me. I still struggle with it some days but I have stuck with it.

I know I don't want to go back to what I went through before finding this site. Do I believe I will get well, yes I do but
it hasn't been and isn't easy.
2
I miss my cookies and blueberry muffins. I love to bake but tend to not do much of that anymore. I love my macaroni and cheese but I haven't eaten any since I committed to get well and eat right. Now the holidays are coming up - turkey & dressing, Christmas dinner, desserts containing sugar etc. I guess its all about commitment and not wanting to go back to the way it was before
I found Mel.

Mel has been such a blessing for me, he is a coach and doesn't even make $20,000 never mind $200,000's a year as many coaches do, or much more.

Thank you Mel for being available when we need you.

I concur with Jamie,

My life didn't have much hope and I had some of the same thoughts she talks about in her post. I don't have them anymore and am better after 7 months on the protocol and attending the conference calls every week.

My question to all new people - where will you be in 6 months,
12 months or 2 years without the path to wellness this WEBSITE offers you?

Ruth Ann
