This brought me to tears. Thank you for sharing this beautiful story. This week marks the one year anniversary my younger sisters death,.. Aug 18,. She was a single mother and fell into the mental health treatment care offered by conventional medicine, as her weight climbed to 280#. My mother also died in August earlier in the month. I was a long time caregiver for both my parents with cancer. My sister died from complications and underlying factors, (metabolic syndrome) related to Covid and the vaccines, while visiting Mexico. I always tried to direct my sis to lifestyle medicine and healthier eating patterns. She was a ball of anxiety and lonliness. As a former RN, mother of 4, married to an urologic surgeon for over 28yrs while, suffering from acute pancreatitis, I eagerly listened and learned from those who understood nutrition and learned the importance of self care. I am dedicating my life also to help those who have reached that critical place, called complete burnout with the painful beast called pancreatitis. Because I was a mother of 4 and fulltime caregiver, I allowed my nursing license to lapse and have not been able to renew due to time. My clinical days as a CVSICU RN in the 1980's supported what I was beginning to learn about how to pause and reverse disease. My Dad taught in the mental health sector at a State School. My Mother was a bookkeeper for PONY Baseball for 35 yrs. a vibrant woman who had no social boundaries. Our house was your house, filled with food and people. It's been a journey learning how to maintain and manage all the urges to cook like mom, but I promised myself that I would create a mental health kitchen and cooking school that. ACLM and IFM, FN, and all collaboratives would appreciate. Now a FMCHC I hope to move carefully toward that goal. Sending peace and strength to all in the ACLM community.
Beautiful story. So glad he discovered the benefits of a predominately whole-food plant-based diet and is advocating for lifestyle change. As an aside, I also have that same Ju-Jitsu dummy and I practice as well. 🙂
The power of WFPBD might be hard to believe unless you've experienced it - by yourself and witnessed patients to improve when they've been told just to accept the illnesses they have.
Tears in my eyes... felt the emotion! Wonderful life example! Just love it! Luck your lovely daughters... felt the love and compassion!
