BELIEVE: DON'T BE HELD A PRISONER OF YOUR DIAGNOSIS
When I received my as diagriosis on May 9,2011, the prognosis was that I would be in a wheelchair within five years and would likely die from the disease within ten. The disease causes the white matter in the brain, or the central nervous system, to become damaged or "stripped," making it unable to receive messages from the brain or transfer them to the body. It's much like when an electrician strips a wire-it can no longer conduct electricity from the outlet (the brain) to the light or object (the body). As this process progressed in my body-as i was told it would-these were expected to be the lasting effects
Anyone who knows me or how I think knows I would not accept this. I am VERY STUBBORN, I believe in the body's ability to heal naturally (thanks to my upbringing), and I believe that if you think about what you want, it must come true-because that is what the Bible says
At the time of the diagnosis, I was 39 years old and just finishing my first year of chiropractic school. It was a second career choice after my husband and I both lost our jobs in 2008. I knew that if I didn't go back to school, then I never would, it had been a lifelong dream since I left school in 1991. So, I sat in my hospital bed alone after receiving the diagnosis and asked GOD, WHY WHY NOW?
I finally had my life and career figured out-and now this?
At that moment, I clearly heard two things
1. I wouldn't bring you anything you can't handle or get through
2. You will be your first patient. You have to reverse this so you can help many others who will come to you for the answers.
That was when i truly embraced the chiropractic philosophy: "If you remove interference from the body, it will heal on its own."
