Under Our Skin ~
Just finished watching "Under Our Skin" about Lyme's Disease…oh, is it ever sobering…
Sabbath at Home with my Mom ~
Happy Sabbath Everyone. Yesterday evening I had my first attempt at giving my mom a fever treatment. Where we are going they are wanting to get her temperature up to 104 for quite some time. Due to my mom's health and the severity of her case I was advised to start her as soon as possible. I also thought it'd be wise to try and ease her into the intense fever treatments. So last night after worship I gave her my first treatment. She went for about 30 minutes before feeling extremely weak, nauseated and desperate to get out. I had cold on her head and she was drinking a lot of lemon water. We got her temperature up above 101 for maybe 8 minutes and that's all she could handle.
This morning she's really not doing well so home we are, taking care of mom. She is so weak and her voice is still slurred and slow. We're all kinda getting used to it now.
We appreciate all of your prayers and concern, and advice. This is a new venture for all of us.
We leave in 4 days...

GYC Health Presentation that I spoke for ~
Hey everyone. I had the wonderful opportunity of speaking during a Health Seminar at GYC. If you go to minute 72 you'll get to hear me. :) http://gycweb.org/media/totalchurch-signs-and-wonders/
The beginning of a Journey ~ Lyme's disease
This week has been one of the longest weeks of my life! Nor do I think I've spent this much time on the phone in ages! Yes my inbox is full again, and I've not had a moment to empty it. I've been at school less than ever, but Praise the Lord I got 100% on my test, even with all of this going on and not knowing something was going to be on it. The Lord is good!
This week we found out that my mom has Advanced Lyme's disease. She's not been feeling well for the past many many years yet the doctors couldn't ever find anything wrong. So, praise the Lord, we finally know what it is. The doctor is thinking that she has had it for years.
Due to the severity of the case we are flying out to California next week to start her in a 21 day program to treat the Lyme's. I'm so grateful for some dear friends that I've been able to talk to that have had and overcome Lyme's as they have given us a lot of suggestions and counsel on what to do. It's going to be an intense process. The doctor says it will most likely take about a year.
I'm going to be giving some updates on here while I'm there. Due to being in the middle of Medical Massage school I won't be able to be there the whole time, but I'm grateful for my teachers letting me go and to reschedule my midterm.
We'd appreciate all of your prayers during this time.

10Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness.
13For I the LORD thy God will hold thy right hand, saying unto thee, Fear not; I will help thee.

GYC 2011 ~
GYC this year was such a blessing! It was my fourth year working logistics and oh what a blessing it was. The spirit of the attendees was amazing, due to some glitches our registration was 3 hours late in starting, yet instead of complaining or getting upset those waiting in line took the time to sing hymns, pray and encourage one another and those of us working registration. When it was finally up and going the whole group of over 100 people broke out singing "Praise the the Lord!" People were there from far and near to hear the gospel and be filled with the spirit. Our theme this year was "Fill Me: Our Earnest Plea" There were people there from over 66 countries and when I counted on Sabbath we had almost 7,000 people there. Aside from working logistics our family also had an exhibit there for "The Creator's Way."
It was busy busy busy at the booths this year. We worked long and hard hours before GYC to get my 6 DVD presentations ready to take down to GYC. That meant: duplication, compilation, designing DVD and Insert covers (thank you Evan!!!) then burning all the copies, then putting the DVD labels on then inserting the DVD cover and putting everything together. We also had to put together the Herbal Remedies First Aid kits, and a dear friend Trish was SO kind to come and help for two days to get those ready.
The people were really interested this year. It was so exciting.
One day the choir director of the academy that was going to be singing that evening started talking to my mom. She shared with her that her knee was hurting and she was concerned about how she was going to conduct, my mom told her about our All Purpose Healing Salve, the lady got some and the next evening she came back to our Exhibit with the wonderful testimony that she had used the salve and was able to conduct without any pain and that as she continued using the salve her pain was still gone. Praise the Lord.
We also had another person come up to the booth that was struggling with a lot of congestion and sinus issues. I suggested that they try some Herbal Chest Rub and see if it would help. A few minutes after they had applied some they came back and bought a jar saying that they could already sense improvement and that they were breathing better.
This year I made my own seminar to accompany the Anna's Wild Yam Cream that we sell. It made a nice set for women, and many women that came to the booth were excited to see it.
Those are just a couple of the stories we have from our Exhibit time at GYC. White there we were able to get out over 300 of my DVD's, including a sermon that I did a couple years ago which we passed out on Sabbath. To check them out go to our website or you can email me and ask me. :)
I'll post more stories when I get a chance. We had quite the adventures driving there and back. 26 hours one way! The Lord really blessed.
I've got to head to school now so I'll have to write more later…
Blessings to you all ~
