This is about Wanda who had
debilitating Rheumatoid Arthritis for years, but does not suffer from it
anymore. Here’s her story…
I am living a
healthy, happy life with my loving husband, Ed. Our daughter, Penny, and her
husband, Jeff, have two precious daughters, Grace and Abby. God has been good
to us.
Professionally,
I was the marketing representative for an independent and assisted healthcare
facility in Houston, Texas, for twenty years. Then, I retired and found great
satisfaction teaching fitness classes in numerous churches in the Houston area.
My program is especially designed for seniors to enhance their flexibility,
strength, endurance, and range of motion.
A challenge I
had always wanted to attempt was to train and run a half marathon, which, at
the age of 52, I did! After the race, however, my health mysteriously began to
fail terribly. I developed severe inflammation and pain throughout my body, and
especially in my feet and hands. I lost my range of motion in my right hand. Three
fingers on that hand became curled under, so I scheduled an appointment with a
hand surgeon who recommended surgery.
I could no
longer shower or wash my hair without Ed’s help. To walk, I needed a cane. It took
20-30 minutes for me to shuffle into church on Sundays. Nor, could I drive. Nighttime
pain prevented me from sleeping. My ankles felt and looked like pin cushions. I
could still feed myself, but I was in great pain from the strong Nexium drug
that had made my stomach raw. As time went by, I, sadly, could no longer lead
my beloved fitness classes and had to quit.
Ed was
beginning to plan for early retirement to care for me. He was considering
renovating our home to make it handicap accessible for assisted daily living. Then,
I reached a point that I was basically bedridden for 1 ½ years.
During this
time frame, Ed and I were on a journey to find help for my health issues. We
went to thirteen medical doctors
with no successful remedy. What we learned was that all of their tests led the
doctors to diagnose me as having an autoimmune disorder, Rheumatoid Arthritis. I
was put on a high dose of an antibiotic. My doctor at that time wanted me to
stay on it for one year, but I quit after only one month, dreading the possible
side effects. Very strong drugs were prescribed for me: Methotrexate (a
chemotherapy drug for various cancers), Remicade, Embrel injections, and others
– which I refused to take because of the adverse side effects. I did take Mobic
for pain (which can, also, have severe side effects).
I simply
wanted to find a cure! I prayed continually for healing, claiming my favorite
scripture, Isaiah 53:5, NIV:
“But He was pierced
for our transgressions, He was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that
brought us peace was on Him, and by His wounds we are healed.”
Also, I read
John Osteen’s special book, “Spiritual Food for Victorious Living”, to
encourage me.
One day when
Ed and I were in a health food store, I was struggling as usual to walk as I
pushed/leaned on a grocery cart. A caring customer approached me, asked me what
my problems were, and offered me a business
card for a local naturopath she thought might help me.
By this
point, we were extremely disheartened, but we decided to make one more attempt
to find an answer that, hopefully, didn’t involve strong pharmaceutical drugs. We
went to see the naturopath who recommended that I start taking polysaccharides,
which are long-chained sugars from fruits and vegetables ripened on the vine or
tree. Of course, we were very skeptical that
such a simple, natural regimen might help, especially after all that I had
already been through!
After much
prayer, I moved ahead and faithfully took the advised amount. I took two scoops
of the polysaccharides daily in water – one in the morning and one later in the
day. Then, after three months on this routine, I began to realize that,
incredibly, my pain level had improved! One day when I was at Wal-Mart, I grasped
the fact that I was walking “without thought!” I was walking without any pain! I
was absolutely thrilled and literally screamed out my delight! Today, I still
remember the astonished faces of those around me on that occasion!
In addition
to an amazing reduction in my pain, another benefit was that my three fingers
uncurled and became straight again! I, of course, called the hand surgeon’s
office and canceled my appointment for surgery.
Since that
time, I have reduced my level of polysaccharides to a maintenance level of one
scoop/daily (one tub/month) in water – unless I need more if I’m overly active.
Each morning, I put one scoop in a bottle of water and shake it and drink it
during the day to keep the supplement level consistent in my body throughout
the day.
I have not been
in pain for a number of years now. I have no restrictions in my life and
there’s been no deterioration in my condition. Ed and I regularly babysit our two
active young granddaughters. We are very involved in our church. I work in my
vegetable/flower garden for hours daily, often lifting heavy loads. My little
herd of Nigerian Dwarf Goats and Ed’s flock of chickens keep me busy, also.
When, after too many hours of this, and at times feeling a little “achy-breaky”,
I double my polysaccharides for that day and again feel relief.
Currently, I
am back teaching my fitness classes in two churches twice/weekly. I have energy
to spare with no discomfort and have complete flexibility and range of motion.
A large part of my life is sharing my faith/health testimonial with others. I praise
my Lord for my returning wellbeing and my life! I know I shouldn’t say that I
am “cured”, but my quality of life is certainly exceptionally normal!
I take no
drugs. I daily take RBC Life supplements, which are:
VitAloe
(polysaccharides), Stem-Kine (stem cell nutrition), Spirulina (superfood),
Microhydrin (anti-oxidant and alkalinizer), 24/Seven (vitamins/minerals), Pure
Enzymes, PurePro Base Protein Shake, Green Phyto-Power, and TruAloe (aloe vera
drink); Phycotene Creme and Aloe Gelee, topically.
In Christ,
