Thank you, Dr. Lisa Madlensky. Your video represents a critical milestone in my career. As a professor specializing in quantum physics and visiting faculty in genomics, I have devoted 21 years to integrating principles of physics into cardiology, striving to transform it into a precise science. Over these years, I've secured four patents for implantable heart defibrillation devices, which have been commercialized by St. Jude's. More recently, my focus has shifted towards merging genomics with the foundational theories of physics. Your video aligns perfectly with this new venture, marking a significant advancement in my interdisciplinary approach.

My battle with Breast cancer started 4 years ago, after so many Chemo, Radiation and other natural therapy treatment that I took just to cure my Breast cancer, it all did not work for my condition. I have been treating this disease for the past 2 years, but today I'm here telling the world about my final victory over Breast cancer with the help of cannabis oil medication. This is a breakthrough in my family with so much Joy in our life today, I was told about Dr Odia, when I heard about his good works from my friend I requested for the contact information of this man, after some days passed as I was always praying to God for mercy, I said to myself that God could use this man to heal me totally after giving myself this thought I immediately contacted Dr Odia, I do really appreciate all the help and contribution from every member of my family for all they did for me. And if you have any kind of cancer diseases, there is no need to waste money on Chemo or Radiation, go get herbals from ( Dr Odia Herbalist home on Facebook) or Search about him, His Herbal Herbs totally kill cancer cells.
