January 15, 2019 was the 6 month marker for starting on the raw fruit diet. I have been sick for many years searching for the answer to get well. The last three years, I was pretty much bound to the house and not able to function well enough to be part of the world.
My story on Rejuvenate Raw With Kim shows my before and after photos (not for the faint of heart). The first one when I was in the hospital with an allergic reaction, having barely stayed alive. The one pictured here is the beginning of this year on my 40th anniversary trip to Mexico.
I saw countless physicians, natural healers, naturopaths, tried almost every therapy possible, stayed in healing clinics out of state for up to 3 weeks, tried practically every diet possible, taken thousands of supplements, flown across the country and even overseas to find answers. And nothing worked... until I got my mind quiet with meditation and felt strongly to post on a forum on Facebook which led me to the truth. Someone who cared enough to speak the truth took the time to give me some information and links about the Dr. Robert Morse protocol. I at first dismissed it. Who wants to be told that their thinking about their current protocol is wrong, right?
Thank goodness the next day I was led back to the post and chose to watch the videos that she shared with me. Immediately the Dr. Morse videos I watched resonated with my soul that THIS is the answer I was looking for. It totally made sense.
That very day I told my husband, "let's go buy some fruit" and I've never looked back or questioned the protocol.
With an ambiguous diagnosis of Lyme Disease, anxiety, flesh eating bacteria, life-threatening intestinal bacteria and so much more, I struggled every day to live for so many years. My everyday existence was all about surviving, that's all. I had to spend countless hours treating the symptoms so my body wasn't overcome by it all. I had to be flown to Florida from my home state of Illinois 4 - 5 times to have good bacteria put in my intestines so I didn't die.
There's so much story to tell and my plan is to write a book in order to help others heal as I am doing.
I am finally healing and getting better every day. The fruit diet enabled my body to detox the Lymph system and to get my kidneys filtering out all the disgusting bacteria, toxins, parasites, etc. By clearing out the gunk, it helped me get my mind more clear and expose the truth that has led me on a wild, crazy, somewhat unbelievable healing journey.
Today, 6 months later. I am writing this from a hotel room in Phoenix, Arizona where I am on a business trip with my husband, engaging in activities, meetings, dinners and social events with about 1000 other people who are in an elite class of financial advisors. It's hard to imagine that I could not even leave the house 6 months ago. Gratitude fills my entire being.for Danielle who took the time to message me this information on such a dark, scary night 6 months ago.
Am I completely well? No, not at all. It takes time to detox a 59 year old body that has been collecting and storing toxins for all these years.
Am I considerably better? You betcha! I have a life now and no longer wake up every day wondering if I will survive the day. Instead I look forward to a future of incredible health and vitality and a knowingness my best days are ahead because I've never been health my entire life. And if I'm health, I can do it all, enjoy a life full of adventure, freedom and enjoyment.
Although I do not focus on symptoms at all these days, but keep my mindset on my future and gratitude for the moment, I have posted what has been healed below to give others encouragement and hope. Keep in mind this is a short list of everything I had going on.
Muscle tightness in neck, head and shoulders so much so my head was drawn to the side and I could not hold it straight or turn one way or another
Debilitating Fatigue - could hardly walk from one side of the house to the other
Flesh eating MRSA for 5+ years on several places on different parts of my body
Horrible brain fog, inability to make decisions, think clearly. Sometimes I hardly knew who I was or where I was
Hypothyroidism - I am no longer taking thyroid medication
Anxiety was out the roof with an overwhelming sense that I was going to die at any time
I think I had the worse parasite infection on the face of the earth (still treating, but much better)
Pounding heart 24/7
Hear heartbeat in right ear constantly
Eyes blurring, painful, twitching, extreme dryness
Pulsating and flashing in eyes
Pain and heaviness in lungs
Movement throughout body (now I know this is scabies - and better but still present)
Rib cage pain
Stagnant lymph system - tests constantly coming back with reports of heavy metals, high chemical, pesticide load, mold toxicity, mycotoxins, etc.
Kidneys not filtering - edema in legs (doctor in the ER told me this was normal)
Sad and depressed and cried every day (now I can't imagine feeling like that )
Terrified to be alone
Thoughts consumed with concern over whether I would get better
Constant rashes and hives
Low blood pressure
Always cold, often had chills
Constant intestinal pain
Okay, you get the picture. I am lucky to be alive.... I take that back. The only reason I am alive is because I believed in my heart of hearts that God had a purpose for me and if I kept researching, experimenting and believing, I would some day figure it out. And I did!
I am so thankful for Dr. Morse and all my fructarian friends who have helped guide me along the way.
I can't attribute my healing totally to the diet though. It's so much more. Now I know we are creators of our own lives and I am always in control of my health through my thoughts and emotions. Thank you to an extremely insightful energy healer, Laura Hernandez, who I have worked with for almost a year now to uncover the power that lies within.
My purpose here is to give hope. For those of you who are in the heat of the battle, know there is an answer and the choice is yours to heal yourself as I am doing. It's always a choice. And then the difficult part begins, putting it into action even when the future seems bleak and there is yet no evidence that is working. Surround yourself with those who have walked the path before you and found success. There are many teachers out there who will guide you in the diet and teachers to help you find the power of the mind and to rid yourself of destructive programs that are holding you back.
Let go of the victim and allow the goodness because you are worth it and you deserve it. NEVER GIVE UP!
