Insanity part 2

Going near a mentally ill person is scary, imagine yourself sleeping, eating or living with them for days.... must be a nightmare huh? well, I did and I survived. In fact, at a time, I was mistaken as one of the inmates. The guy who visited the mental center got scared when I went near him.

staying with the mental patients is also an adventure, though I was just forced to stay to watch a close kin. I was nearly attacked by one of them, They pee in their beds, shout almost the whole time til dawn. The first time I step inside the cell is not pleasant at all, its depressing, its almost similar entering a prison, windows are made of iron so as the door which is locked at 7 PM,until 6:00 AM, most patients are tied to their beds. Nobody under 15 is allowed. The cell where I stayed is like a halfway house where patients were treated for a week. After which, if their condition is not improving they were recommended to move to another building for further treatment that would last for months. Once you have pass the certain period and could recover, the management could now give you a certain period for observation, by this time you will be given responsibility like cleaning and is scheduled for release.

The brief encounter with them is not all scary but moving, when you began to interact with them knowing their stories, you would feel more sympathy to these people who were just unfortunate. It just that they run out of luck, and it happened to them, Once you began understanding their situation you start to pity them, they are individuals who needs more understanding and care and not as object of ridicule, to be hated or be feared of, or treated like having a contagious diseases.

In the past having this illness is the end of the line, like being dead but that was in the past, the illness is curable, all they need is an environment of love and care especially with their love ones... as the saying goes, Love conquers all...

Insanity

Julia Buang, (Julie the crazy) the town's most popular mentally ill person. As a kid we use to tease her. She always without fail respond with a smile. she use to entertain us with her kind of dance. she usually wears flowers in her ears, her clothing is not usual at that time but I found it to be similar these days seeing models of signature apparels walking in a ramp.

That was my first encounter with someone who is suffering from mental disorder. later on I saw a distant relative restricted in her prison like room, she too is suffering from mental disorder. she looked pitiful but the family has to restrained her or else she would wander around and may cause more trouble.

Few years back, we were tasked to take care of a friend who is beginning to experience a mental breakdown, that was my closest encounter with someone who is mentally unhealthy. My left thumb was just operated, the doctor took out puss from my thumb which had suffered from being burned earlier. It was on bandage, the wound is still very fresh. it was on that very time when we were trying to restrain our mentally ill friend inside the taxi going to mental hospital. All of the sudden she grabbed my wounded thumb and squeezed it firmly. I wanted to shout at the top of my voice from pain.

Since most of them are violent we fear and shy away from them but these people needs our love and care. Just recently I have lived, slept and ate with these people inside a jail like mental hospital ward room.

I'll share my first hand experience inside the mental hospital on the next episode... see you later.

Conclusion

I have discussed topics on dreaded diseases such as heart disease and cancer in 2009, sad to say within the period, two of my close associates, the former President of my country and a couple of celebrities had succumbed to cancer. a friend told me of numerous deaths among our neighbors were caused by various heart illness. When cancer or any fatal disease strikes, everyone panicked, we thought of having a slim chance to survive. The person and the family has to decide immediately the type of medication they have to undertake. In case of cancer, people would chose surgery and chemotherapy as their first choice of medication and usually may find other ways later on when they realized the first one is not helping them at all.

Despite the best medicine there is, the prayers, family and friends support, people sometime dies. after all, we're mortals. medical procedures whatever it is, is just to support and extends one's life. but above all were under the universal law that one has to expire someday in one way or another.

When a baby comes out of the mother's womb, the baby usually cries on top of its lungs, simply because they were experiencing fear and shock of being in a completely different environment. They were used to this dark but very comfortable place inside the womb. Being born is leaving that familiar environment. It's like dying, but the next level is a new life, a new dimension which is more spacious, brighter, exciting and a beautiful one. In the same manner, Leaving this comfortable and familiar world is dying but since we are going to unfamiliar dimension, we fear death.

Water Part 2


While in prison he conducted extensive research into the medicinal effects of water in preventing and relieving many painful degenerative diseases. Evin Prison proved an ideal “stress laboratory,” and despite his being offered an earlier release, Dr. Batman chose to stay an extra four months in prison to complete his research into the relationship of dehydration and bleeding peptic ulcer disease. The report of his findings was published as the editorial of the Journal of Clinical Gastroenterology in June 1983.
On his release from prison in 1982, Dr. Batman escaped from Iran and came to America. He wrote his ground-breaking book Your Body’s Many Cries for Water in 1992, which has been translated into fifteen languages and continues to inspire readers worldwide. In his book, he stated that a dry mouth is not a reliable indicator of dehydration. The body signals its water shortage by producing pain. Dehydration actually produces pain and many degenerative diseases, including asthma, arthritis, hypertension, angina, adult-onset diabetes, lupus, and multiple sclerosis.
Dr. Batman’s message to the world was, “You are not sick, you are thirsty. Don’t treat thirst with medication.”

Water


Dr. Batman and the “Water Cure”:
Physicians rarely promote the curative properties of water, but the late Dr. Fereydoon Batmanghelidj, M.D. (aka “Dr. Batman”) studied water’s effect on the human body and found it to be one of the best pain relievers and preventative therapies. His pioneering work shows that Unintentional Chronic Dehydration (UCD) contributes and even produces pain and many degenerative diseases which can be prevented and treated by increasing water intake.
Dr. Batman was born in Iran in 1931, and he practiced medicine in the UK before returning to Iran where he played a key role in the development of hospitals and medical centers. When the Iranian Revolution broke out in 1979, Dr. Batman was placed in the infamous Evin Prison as a political prisoner for thirty-one months. It was there he discovered the healing powers of water. One night, Dr. Batman had to treat a fellow prisoner with crippling peptic ulcer pain. With no medications at his disposal, Dr. Batman gave him two glasses of water. Within several minutes, his pain completely disappeared. He was instructed to drink two glasses of water every three hours and became absolutely pain free for his four remaining months in the prison. While in prison, Dr. Batman successfully treated over three thousand fellow prisoners suffering from stress-induced peptic ulcer disease with water alone.

Cancer Part 4



I'd like to tell them how three glasses of water, half a teaspoon of rock salt, one saba banana and siling labuyo took out a hypertensive patient's crushing headache and brought down her blood preasure from 240/140 to 115/75 in 5 minutes. And how it has done the same for other hypertensive patients.

I'd like to tell them how three people scheduled for leg amputation for diabetic gangrene got the gangrene cured, the very high blood sugar normalized and the amputation canceled in one week with the use of six mineral food supplements, raw pork pancreas which are very rich in natural insulin, raw garlic plastered over the would to kill any infection and 6,000 mg of vitamin C daily to accelerate the healing of the wound all at a cost of only P1,300 for that one week.

There are are many more things I'd like to tell them, which is why I'm happy to accept invitations to give natural healing lectures for free.

My mission is to spread the good new of natural healing to as many people as possible, and I am doing this together with the Philippine College for the advancement in Medicine (PCAM) a non-profit foundation founded in 1995 by seven medical doctors who have been practicing alternative medicine since the 1980's.

Cancer Part3-Healing cancer naturally



In 1997, the Philippines was blessed with the passage into law of the traditional & Alternative Medicine Act of 1997, which established natural healing as legal of medicine side by side with pharmaceutical drug-based medicine. The preamble of the law says it is the policy of the state to accelerate the development of traditional and alternative health care and to integrate it into the national health care delivery system. This law was passed because 70% of our people do not get adequate health care for three reasons : 1)We don't have enough doctors and the supply is dwindling because we are losing doctors to the US and to the nursing profession, 2)most doctors prefers to practice in urban areas, and 3) Drugs, medical procedures and hospitalizations are priced way above what people can afford.

The message I would like to send out to my country men is that natural healing with food and food supplement heals faster and better than synthetic drugs, with out thye side effect of synthetic drugs.

I'd like to tell them how raw pork pancreas and raw beef liver with coffee enemas and food supplement that clear up the arteries of blockage, clear up the blood of toxins and a 100 % raw food diet (which I call Adam & Eve Diet) have cured terminal cancer patients of leukemia, brain cancer liver cancer, colon cancer, breast cancer, prostrate cancer in 2 to 7 months. How a scan by an oncologist in a top rated hospital found a pancreatic cancer patient's 7.8 cm tumor shrinking to 4 cm . in just 1.5 months with raw pork pancreas and liver. And how the oncologist told the patient to continue taking the pancreas and liver and she won't need any chemo anymore. I'd like to tell them how the cost the cost of this natural treatment for cancer has ranged from P2,000 to P25,000 a month ($40 to $500).
