Diseases Can Be Cured

I believe that many diseases can be cured. I was cured of arthritis about 20 years ago. My sixth child was 4 months old. I had been having a problem with a knee that kept swelling. A specialist told me to have surgery, so I did. I woke up two weeks later feeling like I'd slept on rocks.

Unfortunately, this feeling didn't go away. I was diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis and told that there was no cause and no cure and that they would experiment with drugs to make me feel comfortable.

They told me that I would have to stop nursing my baby, of course. Well, I figured that I had my whole life to take drugs and that my baby was too young for that. Did the doctors who took my money even care? I never heard from them again, at any rate.

I crawled up the steps of an iridologist's house and was told that my blood was too acidic and needed to become more alkaline. I was given a list of foods I could eat and a list of foods I couldn't eat. I was so weak I couldn't even push a grocery cart. I thought maybe if I leaned on it I could make it roll, but that didn't work very well.

For three months, I was not to eat the following: anything processed, any dairy, or any meat. Was there anything left I actually COULD eat? Yes, I could eat any vegetable, especially celery and romaine lettuce, and any alkaline fruit, especially bananas and pineapple. Oh joy.

My kids took over at the grocery store and at my request piled our cart with green vegetables. We went home and just looked at each other. How were we supposed to eat this stuff? We had no idea what to do with it. Everything we learned, we learned the hard way.

I just did the best I could. I didn't give up everything, and it probably took longer than it would've, but following that list was one of the hardest things I've ever done.

After an extremely painful year and a half, I am glad to say that I walked away from arthritis with NO MORE PAIN! Now twenty years later, that baby grew up and just got married, and I never gave a thought to the fact that I had been arthritis-free for many years.

I was so glad to learn that arthritis is not an incurable disease. I think that perhaps God does not necessarily want us to spend our lives in pain. But He lets us decide what type of lifestyle we want to live.

If we choose to eat healthy food, to go to bed early and get up early, to speak loving words, and to participate in other healthy practices, we will lead healthier and happier lives than if we do otherwise.

If we don't know that we shouldn't eat devitalized, irradiated and unhealthy foods, keep a cell phone held to our head everyday, get stressed out, think negative thoughts, or any number of other sometimes unhealthy things, we will pay for it in the end and not even know how it happened.

I am so glad to be traveling toward a happier and healthier way of life. I invite everyone to join me and teach me what they know, too.
