Update Time!

My cancer mentee called me today! (Since I don’t want to divulge my friend’s name, until I have his approval, I have no gentler way to describe him. But let's call him Mr. C!)

I had tried to stay in touch with him and his wife, but it was a challenge in the last couple of weeks, so I let it go. I came to the conclusion that I gave them enough tools to start this journey and the rest is up to them.

He e-mailed me a couple of days ago, but I have not had time to respond, so he actually called me. How exciting—I finally saw the proactive side of him!

He simply called to report on his progress, which is very uplifting. Keep in mind that this man was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer, and by now, after chemo had failed and weakened him miserably, the doctors told him there is nothing else they could do for him, except maybe surgery on his thyroid, but even with that he is sure to die… at least that’s what they told him.

He called to tell me that he has more energy than he had in a long time—he is now exercising, mowing his lawn, traveling. A part of his femur bone was removed due to cancer, so he was in constant pain and discomfort. He told me that the pain has now lessened! When I first met him about 5 weeks ago, he had to take frequent naps, because he was so week. He told me that he does not have to knap as much anymore. He sound better too! Oh, and when I met him he was slightly overweight—he was able to lose 15 lbs without trying!

He also told me that the clarity of mind is returning to him, as well as his sight is improving! Is that awesome or what? He also reported that he became more spiritually in tune with God, which melted my heart. One of the things I tell people to do that start on the whole foods lifestyle is to always keep a journal handy. As you regain control of your body, you—your spirit, strengthens and gets control over your mind and flesh, thus making it easier for the voice of God to get through to you. If you are walking with God, you will experience a relationship with Him on a whole new level—you hear His voice better, you start having meaningful dreams, you are full of revelations and ideas. After all, you are living a fasted life!

But, back to my friend…

He went to see his oncologist a couple of days ago, and the oncologist was impressed so much with his improvement that he took detailed notes about my friend’s diet and lifestyle change and said that he will order and read The China Study by T. Colin Campbell. I am tickled!

For someone who started on an all raw diet he and his wife are making huge strides! Animal products are especially harmful for cancer patients, and I was impressed to learn that he fell to temptation only twice in the last 5 weeks, but what impressed me, is that he knew how bad it was for him, so he took immediate steps to get it out of his system—through juicing and green smoothies! Way to go!

When I met this man, I told him that I have no guarantees for his life, except that the quality of his life will improve. But I also told him that we don’t only depend on food for healing, we also know the Creator of that food that can complete the work of healing—He can guarantee whatever He chooses. In fact, He already did on the Cross! So, we are still praying for a complete recovery for my friend. Since he has become responsible for his health and took the ownership of his life, he now has the boldness to come to his Creator, and ask for the gift of Health! And our Lord might just amazes us once again!

If you are reading this blog, and you are a believer in Christ, make sure to mention my friend, Mr. C, in your prayer today—help to bring the miracle around!
