Hello Everyone and Welcome Back Once More! Since I have never allowed horror stories on our website, I will not give you the gory details of the last nine years. Suffice to say, I'll give you gist of it. 2016-22 were the last great years before I moved out of Reno. As everyone else I aged a little but maintained terrific health with actually enjoying the fact that I can walk like a normal human being again. The website continued to grow. I also created two separate model railroads in two different apartments and grew many of my own vegetables inside my apartment and on my terrace. In September of 2022, unfortunately I had a fire in my kitchen. At that time I took it as a sign that it was probably time to move. Reno had grown tremendously since I moved there in 1999 and it became ever increasingly expensive to live there. October 2022, my first move to Crossville, TN: This afforded me a beautiful one bedroom house on a lake as well as being reunited with my closest friend from the early 1970s. Unfortunately, the house was built and either was overrun with mold or was built on top of a toxic dump. I got so sick in five weeks, I became bed ridden, lost over 35 pounds and looked like I was ready to be put into the oven at Auschwitz. Luckily for me, someone whose life I had saved previously from our website and became great friends with, upon hearing all of this from my dear friend Richard, she decided to come to Crossville from Houston Texas, to help bring me to a healthier environment. Karen and my friend Richard, loaded me into a van and it was a 2-3 day trip to Houston. I was so incapacitated, no matter what anybody told me I just did it. I didn't even know where I was going. Upon arriving in Houston, despite our great affection for one another, we came to realize it would be impossible to live together. The good news was that I was starting to recover. The bad news was here I go I had to move again and had no furniture, nothing. Within 5-6 weeks, I am now living an 13 year old apartment in Houston, but it also was full of mold. After many discussions with management, I was let out of my lease and I was about to move again for the third time is 3 years. Now, I wanted to try to get again into a country/nature type of atmosphere and decided to take a shot in Colorado. I also came here with the hope to help a family to restore their and somewhat tutor their children to better health habits. Unfortunately, the best laid plans don't always work out the way you hope but enough of the sad and let's get on with the glad. I am very glad that I moved here despite the fact of the ever increasing business of the website, I have not been able to have the time to make friends. Never fear because I never feel lonely because I am continuously working with many people and I have the beauty of where I live which for most people is unimaginable. Still here in June, we have snow on the top of the very tallest mountains and everything is so green it's blinding. Five minutes in any direction from where I live and you're out in the country. If you go 8-10 miles west, you're at the base of the Rocky Mountains and as you start to take these old country roads up, the wildlife you encounter, most people will ever get to see. In a year I have seen bear, mountain lion, bobcat, antelope, moose, deer, no alligators, and assortment of bald eagles even more than in Reno, an enormous populace of red and a white tailed hawk and geese by the thousands. It's very hard to describe how beautiful it truly is here. I've always loved nature, always. So at this moment, I can say that I'm a pretty happy camper for someone that's approaching their 80th birthday and still feel I'm 39. Better news than that, is the state of my health. For after 3 1/2 years of not seeing a doctor, I have seen two doctors in the last two months. One "at the nurses station" as I was leaving her clinic said "Mel, you're the healthiest 80 year old person who ever came into our clinic". So I have decided now since I spent an hour just talking with her, showing her our website, and discussing nutritional value in slowing down the aging process. I decided to make her my primary care physician and went back 5 weeks later to a different clinic where she started a practice and got a full exam. The best thing to me after they took my blood pressure three times because they couldn't believe how good it was. So I conclude this update with a photo of my new office. It's not a good picture but it will show you without a doubt that this old bird don't look 80. In conclusion let me say that I wish everyone that's reading this update will enjoy total restoration and the health that I now enjoy. | |||
