Linda Clark's Get Well Naturally, continued: (p.223)
Emotions
Psychological tests given to 127 cancer patients, who did not yet know that they had cance,r revealed that emotions had apparently played a role in their illness. The official journal of the American Cancer Society reported, "The results were consistent with the observations of others who have described the cancer patient as unable to express his angry feelings and as covering them up with a facade of pleasantness." Yet the patients themselves did not seem to realize they possessed this trait. Involved in the psychological study were 34 patients with lung cancer, and 19 with cancer of prostate, as compared with 74 subjects who were healthy or had other diseases.
Lest this sound too far-fetched, Dr. Bernard Roizman, Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, provides the explanation. Many people harbor a "sleeping" tendency to cancer. Under normal conditions symptoms do not appear. But when the body is subjected to an emotional upset, a physical disturbance of some type, or a generally run down condition, the sleeping cancer tendency may flare. Thus, emotonal as well as physical upsets may trigger cancer in some people.
Natural Immunity and Spontaneous Regression
Dr. Westin Price in his worldwide search for healthy people found no cancer except where people were eating civilized and refined foods, while Dr. Albert Schweitzer reported no cancer among the Africans he observed until civilized foods were introduced. The late Vilhjalmur Stefansson reported no evidence of cancer among the Eskimos until the introduction of civilized foods, and Sir Robert McCarison, M.D., found the Hunzas, who lived on natural foods, to be free of cancer.
Dr. Cornelius P. Rhoads, late director of the Sloan-Kettering Institute, New York, reported that some persons threw off cancer as easily as they did a common cold, whereas others were easy victims. The first definite proof that the human body possesses a special defense system or immunity against cancer was found when cancer cells were injected into healthy volunteer prisoners, at Ohio State Penitentiary. The prisoners experienced only soreness similar to a smallpox vaccination. But when cancer cells were injected into volunteers already suffering from cancer at Memorial Hospital, New York City, instead of minor soreness, cancer flourished. Dr. Rhoad's belief as that the natural defenses of the body can be made more effective if they are given a chance.
Dr. Warren Cole and associates at the University of Illinois report that they found 55 cases out of 400 dating back to 1890 which fulfilled the requirements for true spontaneous regression, i.e. that the body, for some unknown reason cured itself.
Dr. Tiden C. Everson of the University of Illinois College of Medicine cites 130 documented cases of cancer classified as "probably examples of spontaneous regression." The New York Times, October 22, 1963 reported Dr. Everson's findings, says, "in some of the cases documented, it seemed that something happened on the inside of the patients body within a matter of weeks, sometimes almost overnight, that made conditions unfavorable to cancer.
A study, reported in the Journal of the American Medical Association (November 1961) conducted by Drs. Peter A. Herbut, Theodore T. Tsaltas, and William H. Kraemer, found an active agent in tumor-inhibitory principle (TIP) in the liver. The Journal stated, "It appears that the normal human liver produces an inhibitory principle which it imparts not only to the blood stream, but also to the bile."
An extract was made from the guinea pig muscle, spleen, kidney, heart, brain and liver. The researchers found TIP only in the liver.
One substance apparently to help the body develop immunity to cancer is found in shark liver. Dr. JOhn H. Helles, of the New England Institute for Medical research, which is sponsoring a shark hunt, explains, as reported in Medical World News (June 19, 1964), how the shark liver substance works.
The hard- to-come-by shark lipid is a potent stimulator of a number of the body's defense activities. Its most important property is its effect on animals with either viral or nonviral tumors.
"The lipid reduces or delays the incidence of tumors, retards tumor growth, increases the life-span of tumorous animals, shows metastasis, and brings about tumor regression.
More tests are needed, but the outlook appears hopeful.

what causes cancer?
Linda Clark's Get Well Naturally: p.219
What causes cancer?
1. J.R. Davidson, M.D.: "I decided to make the assumption that cancer was a deficiency disease and to follow this line of research wherever it might lead me.... In 10 years of experiments with white mice it was possible to observe cancer in rapid development during several generations, a thing which could not be done in the case of human patients....One strain I fed on a diet of high vitamin content and the fourth generation was a fine, healthy animal with no trace of cancer whatever....[Another strain] I fed on a very poor diet, and at the end of the fourth generation...I succeeded in developing a strain of mice with 100 per cent cancer. Then taking the offspring of this strain, I fed them a high vitamin diet and eventually developed a strain which would resist cancer....This established to my satisfaction...that cancer is directly dependent on diet..." (Cancer, A Nutritional Deficiency, Reprint No.18, Lee Foundation for Nutritional Research, Milwaukee 3, Wisconsin.)
2. Two teenagers, in joint research at Yeshiva University, also uncovered information that cancer is linked with nutritional deficiency. The research was conducted under the supervision of Dr. Robert D. Barnard, a consultant to the Cancer research division of the Department of Health, New York City, and was read to the Fifth International Congress on Nutrition. The conclusion of their investigations was summed up: "...that cancer is merely a local manifestation of a bodywide-deficiency and can sometimes be treated by feeding patients substances that accelerate cell growth." (New York Times, September 3, 1960.)
3. Other factors found by investigation to contribute to cancer are:
EXCESSIVE SUNLIGHT
"Excessive exposure to sunlight and ultraviolet rays can change certain CHEMICALS on the skin to cancer-producing substances, warns Dr. T.R. Allen. More than 90 percent of all skin cancers occur on exposed areas. Most susceptible are the fair skinned who should be particularly careful to avoid overexposure.

(New York Times, September 3, 1960.)
3. Other factors found by investigation to contribute to cancer are:
- viral infections
- trauma (accidental or surgical injury)
- hormone imbalance
- radiation
- malnutrition
- constant irritation of latent bacterial (and spirochetal) infections and chemical irritations.
"Alexander Berglas, member of the Cancer Research Foundation of the Pasteur Institute, indicates that anything which serves as constant irritation is capable of causing cancer. He states as examples, 'Irritation and deficiency factors ill cause the regulatory mechanisms to fail'...factors such as 'industrial noxae' (poisons), denatured nutrition, artificial fertilizers, production of adulterated foods, accumulation of insecticides in foodstuffs." (Report: The Public Wants to Know Independent Citizens Research Foundations, 71 West 23rd street, New York City.)
4. Smoking, air pollution, and stress have also been found to be contributing factors.
5. D.T. Quigley, M.D., late of Omaha, Nebraska, and a cancer specialist says, "One of the few things we do know at the present time about cancer is that it is a disease which follows another disease. It is never primary, but always secondary. It never grows on healthy tissues, but always on previously diseased tissues. The part of a body on which a cancer grows has a special soil on which the invader finds a favorable environment. If the soil is not prepared in advance, the cancer simply cannot and will not take root and grow....Whether the immediate cause of cancer may be ultimately found to be a virus, a fungus, a bacillus, or a chemical compound makes little difference in the question of prevention. The important fact is that the diseased area on which the cancer finds its suitable soil must not be allowed to exist. By the prevention of locally diseased areas in the body, we may prevent cancer." (The National Malnutrition, Milwaukee 3, Wisconsin: Lee Foundation for Nutritional Research, 1943.)
In 1943, Dr. Quigley showed many slides at a meeting of the American Academy of Applied Nutrition, of patients before and after surgical removal of cancer. He said that in over 30 years of experience, not one of his patients who had followed his dietary recommendations had had recurrences of cancer!
6. Irritation. There is no such thing as a common 'carcinogenic' factor- the mechanism of action of 'carcinogenic substances; being always and solely a matter of constant irritation....Irritation and deficiency factors will cause the refulatory mechanisms to fail...." (alexander Berglas, Cancer: Nature, Cause and Cure, Paris :Pasteur Institute 1957.)
Some Specific Irritants (Carcinogens)
SUGAR
Albert Brandt, reporter: "There is a great deal of evidence connecting the excessive consumption of sugar, regined or not, with cancer. Novel prize-winner Dr. Otto Meyerhoff of the University of Pennsylvania Medical School called attention to 'the appetite of tumors for sugar' and suggested that the growth of cancerous tissue might possibly be stopped if biochemists could find a way of curing this appetite." (Refined Sugar Can Wreck Your Health, Reprint, Lee Foundation for Nutritional Research, Milwaukee 3, Wisconsin.)
X RAYS
"Some states have outlawed the use of fluoroscopy in the fitting of shoes. The United States Public Healh Service has recommended that the widespread use of the photo-chest X Ray survey be discontinued. The hazards of x-ray exposure were emphasized by measurements reported from the Department of Radiobiology at the Massachusetts General Hospital." (The New England Journal of Medicine, January 29, 1959, p.197.)
The American Public Health Association recommends that before submitting to any examination you should ask the doctor these questions:
- Is the examination necessary?
- Who is to make the examination?
- Has he received formal training in radiology?
- Is the assisting technician certified or qualified by formal training?
(Changing Times, February 1959.)
"Xrays should definitely be avoided during the early months of pregnancy, four experts warned. This means that they should be avoided whenever possible in at least the first three months, and there should be no such thing as "routine" x-rays....It has recently been discovered that one of the largest doses to the reproductive organs is received in the dental chair where 15 to 20 exposures are shot in a sitting position and the rays are directed downward toward the pelvis." (Science News Letters, August 22, 1959. p. 118.)
"Dr. Milton T. Edgerton of the Johns Hopkins Hospital, Baltimore, presented data at the National Cancer Conference in Minneapolis showing that in more than eight of every ten cases of thyroid cancer n children under 17 years of age, the patient had received substantial x-ray exposure of the head, neck or chest region years earlier for some non-cancerous condition such as acne, sinusitis or enlarged thymus gland. These exposures Dr. Edgerton said, are very many times more severe than those received in chest x-ray and in dental diagnosis. The interval between the x-ray and in dental diagnosis. The interval between the x-ray treatment and the development of thyroid cancer, he said, ranged from about three to twelve years, with the average around eight. The data suggest, he added, that the thyroid gland of infants and children is markedly more susceptible to cancer producing effects of radiation than is the thyroid gland of adults." (Science section, New York Times, September 18, 1960.)
EXCESSIVE SUNLIGHT
"Excessive exposure to sunlight and ultraviolet rays can change certain CHEMICALS on the skin to cancer-producing substances, warns Dr. T.R. Allen. More than 90 percent of all skin cancers occur on exposed areas. Most susceptible are the fair skinned who should be particularly careful to avoid overexposure.

continuing the reading of "get well naturally"
"It is also obvious that the control of air pollution demands our most urgent attention...a good oxygen intake is essential for good health...oxygen is ESSENTIAL for the removal and destruction of many toxic agents present in or on our cells...
"many drugs now used can interfere with cell respiration...
"x-rays and other forms of irradiation are known to inhibit catalase.
"chemical filth (pollution) is a major public health hazard of time...
"Cancer prevention, the only effective scientific method of controlling the disease, can show results if we pull together and reform some of our bad habits so prevalent in our civilized way of living."
These excerpts are quoted from Dr. Holman's monograph with his permission. They were also published by Prevention (May, 1963) and labeled by that magazine as one of its most significant articles.
2. "Malcolm Lawrence", pseudonym for a well-known reporter:
"Economically, cancer is one of the most important diseases to both doctor and patient. To the former the flow of money is 'in'; to the latter the flow is 'out'. It is no less than astounding that a surgical procedure which hardly has one long-term survival to boast of is still followed if the patient can afford it. Some students of the subject believe that a poor cancer patient has a better chance for survival than a rich one because the poor man might escape the full surgical treatment.
"To dispel any doubt, conside the interview given some time ago by a non-conformist surgeon, Dr. Paul R. Hawley...president of the American College of Surgeons. He told a reporter that one..."would be shocked at the amount of unnecessary surgery is performed." (U.S. News and World Report, Feb. 1953).
According to this article, the reporter asked: "Why do you suppose a doctor makes an unnecessary operation?"
"Money," Dr. Hawley replied.
"Just plain dishonest money-making?...Do you think there are doctors who would do this just for the sake of money?" the interviewer pressed.
Said Dr. Hawley, "I don't think it, I know it, and I can prove it."
Dr. Hawley may or may not have been talking about cancer surgery; however, no more lucrative field for the surgeon's knife exists in the entire kingdom of medicine.
Why is it that independent researchers in the field of cancer who believe they have something worthwhile can never get any place with the American Cancer Society? The Society spends millions of dollars to tell the public that it is looking in every nook and cranny for the answer to cancer. But as soon as a scientist comes along who is not a cog in the finely meshing wheels of organized medical research, he is put under the thumb of the "recognized" researchers. He either has to sign away personal rights to his discovery, or (more likely) he is stalled and ignored.
3. Excerpts from Hearings before a Subcommitte of the United States Senate, conducted by Senator Claude Pepper, July 1-3 1946
Dr. M.: "...A survey made by Dr. Stanley Reimann of cancer cases in Pennsylvania over a long period of time showed that those who received no treatment lived longer than those who received surgery, x-ray or radium. The exceptions were those patients who had received electrosurgery-- in other words, the surgery with an electrical knife-- and lived approximately as long as those who received no treatment whatsoever. The survey also showed that following the use of radium and x-ray much more harm that good was done to the average cancer patient. This is a conclusion which is not generally accepted and is highly controversial among leading cancer workers. It would appear that none of the routine measures employed today to combat cancer is as effective as their proponents would have us believe."
4. W. A. Dewey, M.D., former professor of medicine at the University of Michigan Homeopathic Medical College, said, "...In a practice of nearly 45 years I have yet to see a single case of cancer, save a few semi-malignant epitheliomata, cured by surgery, x-ray or radium."
5. Profesor Hardin B. Jo;nes, Department of Biophysics, University of California Medical School, declared that there was evidence to indicate that untreated cases of cancer survive longer than those that are treated. (From "Demographic Consideration of the Cancer Problem," Transactions of the New York Academy of Science, Series II, Vol. 1, No.4 [1956],
6.F. Allen Rutherford, M.D., who received his training from Johns Hopkins and University of Pennsylvania Medical Schools, and has served as coroner of Lebanon County, Pennsylvania, as well as on the teaching staff of the University of Pennsylvania, Department of Urology, says, "Surgeons can only hope that their operations will be effective in removing cancer; radiologists can only hope that they have been able to burn out the cancerous areas; doctors who inject various chemicals can only hope that the cancer will be eradicated before the patient dies. None of them can look at a patient and say with any surety that the treatment they plan to use will be effective." (Form an interview with Prevention magazine.)
7. The FitzGerald Report:
A Report to a Senate Committee on the Need for Investigation of Cancer Research Organizations, carried in the Congressional Record of August 28, 1953, Pages 5690-93.
From Benedict F. FitzGerald, Jr. special counsel to the Committee on Interstate and Foreign Commerce.
To: Hon. JOhn W. Bricker and members of the Interstate and Foreign Commerce Committee of the United States Senate.
Subject:Progress report on study requested by the late Senator Charles W. Tobey.
"Pursuant to the above, the undersigned commenced a collection and study of material covering the operations of foundations, hospitals, clinics and government sponsored organizations specializing in cancer problems...
"I have approached this problem with an open mind. Recognizing the importance of men skilled in the science of medicine, who are best informed, if not qualified, on the question of cancer, its causes and treatment, I directed my attention to the propaganda by the American Medical Association and the American Cancer Society to the effect: namely, that radium, x-ray therapy and surgery after the only recognized treatments for cancer.
"Is there any dispute among recognized medical scientists in America and elsewhere in the world on the use of radium and X-ray therapy in the treatment of cancer? The answer is definitely, yes; there is division of opinion on the use of radium and x-ray. both agencies are DESTRUCTIVE and not constructive. In the alleged destruction of the abnormal, outlaw or cancer cells, both x-ray therapy and radium destroy normal tissue and normal cells. Recognized medical authorities in America and elsewhere state positively that x-ray therapy can cause cancer in and of itself. Documented cases are available.
"If radium, x-ray or surgery or either of them is the complete answer, then the greatest hoax of the age is being perpetrated upon the people by the continued appeal for funds for further research. If neither x-ray, radium or surgery is the complete answer to the dreaded disease, and I submit that it is NOT, then what is the plain duty of society? Should we STAND STILL? Should we sit idly by and count the number of physicians, surgeons, and cancerologists who re not only divided, but who, because of fear or favor, are forced to line up with the so-called accepted view of the American Medical Association, or should the committee make a full scale investigation of the organized effort to hinder, suppress and restrict the free flow of drugs which allegedly have proven successful in cases where clinical records, case history, pathological reports, and z-ray photographic proof, together with the alleged cured patients, are available?
"Accordingly, we should determine whether existing agencies, both public and private, are engaged in and have pursued a policy of harassment, ridicule, slander and libelous attacks on others sincerely engaged in stamping out this curse of mankind. Have medical associations, through their offices, agents, servants, and employees engaged in this practice? My investigation to date should convince this Committee that a conspiracy does exist to stop the free flow and use of drugs in interstate commerce which allegedly has solid therapeutic value. Public and private funds have been thrown around like confetti at a country fair to close up and destroy clinics, hospitals and scientific research laboratories which do not conform to the viewpoint of medical associations.
"How long will the American people take this?
"In this connection this Committee should investigate the advertising agency which control all advertising in the Journal of the American Medical Association as well as the various State Journals. Why is the stamp of approval, by the so-called nutrition experts and their Council on Foods, placed on certain foodstuffs, denied to others, and others condemned without a reasonable investigation? Is there a relationship between approval by these experts and the operation of the advertising agency in the offices of the American Medical Association?

more about catalase and more
Page 214 of Get Well Naturally:
"2. To increase the manufacture of catalase by our own cells.
"It was shown many years ago that if a normally active creature is forcibly imprisoned in a cage so as to limit its normal activity, the n after some weeks the catalase content of the body decreases. Conversely, normally inactive creatures can be made to develop more catalase if forcibly exercised. t is very probably, therefore that the chronic habit of limiting the muscular activity of man, by encouraging him to imprison himself in cars, trains and other forms of mechanical locomotion...is doing much to diminish his normal catalase level.
....In general, a higher concentration of catalase implies an increased consumption of oxygen which provides a catalytic system of prime importance in the detoxification of our bodies.
"3. To curtail the intake of agents which destroy or inhibit the action of our cell catalase.
"This is probably the most important mode of attack....The main pathways are ingestion...Chemical agents have been added to food and drink in order to kill bacteria, resulting in a longer shelf life to color the products, resulting in increased sales; to act as sweeteners, flavoring agents, etc.; to accelerate the growth of chickens, bullocks, fish, etc. It has been estimated that there are now more than 1000 additives to our food and drink. Many of these interfere with the catalase-peroxide balance, e.g., sulphur dioxide, sodium nitrate, sodium flouride, certain hormones, insecticides, fungicides, and dyes....The deliberate addition of that poisonous substance Sodium Fluoride to public water supplies, with the intent of delaying the onset of dental caries, is a most unscientific and unethical measure. Sodium Fluoride is a potent catalase poison and is cumulative. Its use is not deal with the prime cause of dental decay...which is a chemically adulterated food supply.

eat fresh fruits, veggies, and garlic
Continued from my last post...
From Get Well Naturally by Linda Clark (ps.213/214)
"Almost 30 years ago, Maisin succeeded in controlling certain animal tumors with dihdoxymethyl peroxide. Motawei, in Cairo, reported significant results in animals and humans with hydrogen peroxide alone or combined with X-ray. Certain American workers, who have been working along the same lines with H2O2, have caused rapid destruction of tumors in periods as short as seven days.
To develop a far more effective cure it is essential that the catalase peroxide mechanism be exploited in order to determine the most efficient way of over-oxidizing the catalase-deficient cells. A perfect method of doing this is gong to be very difficult to produce because, in certain sites, e.g. the liver, where the catalase concentration of normal cells is high, it will be extremely unlikely that the cancer cells growing there can always be affected when so well buffered by the surrounding catalase.
"Louis Pasteur emphasized that it is far more important to prevent a disease than treat it....The direct treatment of such diseases by chemotherapeutic and antibiotic agents has not been, and never will be, responsible for their elimination....We have a terrible disease which is one of our worst killers; and to stop this we must prevent the tumor starting...it is the only sure way...
"The plan for prevention of cancer should be threefold.
"1, to increase our intake of catalase.
"Catalase, as well as many other enzymes, is destroyed by heat. Civilized man now lives primarily out of the can, the bottle and the package....The agents used to destroy the bacteria invariably destroy the catalase in the food...No other species of animals has such a diet. It would be to everyone's advantage if the consumption of fresh fruits and vegetables were to be markedly increased, thus ensuring a far greater intake of catalase and peroxidase. There are numerous references in the literature to the fact that garlic-eating people have an increased resistance to cancer. This is not surprising which one realizes that garlic is very rich in the catalytic systems containing catalase and peroxidase."
From Get Well Naturally by Linda Clark (ps.213/214)
"Almost 30 years ago, Maisin succeeded in controlling certain animal tumors with dihdoxymethyl peroxide. Motawei, in Cairo, reported significant results in animals and humans with hydrogen peroxide alone or combined with X-ray. Certain American workers, who have been working along the same lines with H2O2, have caused rapid destruction of tumors in periods as short as seven days.
To develop a far more effective cure it is essential that the catalase peroxide mechanism be exploited in order to determine the most efficient way of over-oxidizing the catalase-deficient cells. A perfect method of doing this is gong to be very difficult to produce because, in certain sites, e.g. the liver, where the catalase concentration of normal cells is high, it will be extremely unlikely that the cancer cells growing there can always be affected when so well buffered by the surrounding catalase.

There are signs everywhere
I'll admit that even before I was diagnosed with stage 2 hodgkin's lymphoma, I had lost sight of "the signs" that I had been so used to seeing and following my entire life. You might say that I was jaded, sidetracked and just stopped being connected to that plane of being.
It's been about 6 months now where it seems like I am getting back on track and now I'm recognizing all of those things all over again. Some of the signs are personal to me, and others are like the photo above. I was on a beach in Puerto Rico and this leaf from a tree nearby fluttered, flew and landed next to me. It was a reminder to me that love is everywhere and that I was being looked after.
I know it sounds hokey but I truly believe it. Going through hell, connecting back to prayer, meditation and the divine has taught me so many things in what it seems a small amount of time again even though it was something I already knew.
So imagine my surprise when I was wondering if I was on track a few weeks ago at my parents house. I was wandering around the basement looking for the cat, and I found him. Big, fat, fluffy cat was sitting in the boiler room where he had dragged his bed. When I looked down there was a super-old book staring up at me called, 'Get Well Naturally by Linda Clark' [1965].
I bring it up to my parents and asked, where did this book come from? No one remembered it for the life of them, but there it was.
I turn a crinkled, yellowing page into the book and it's about ALL the natural cures for various diseases. Obviously, I look up Hodgkin's Lymphoma and Cancer.
"R.A. Holman, MD-- Cancer is, of course, a condition which has been recognized in man for thousands of years....In recent decades we have become aware that there is an ever increasing number of physical and chemical agents which can cause cancer in laboratory animals and in man, e.g. x-rays, ultra-violet light, radium, certain dyestuffs, soot, tar, etc....In my opinion, the only common denominator is the cell upon these agents act...
"As a result of the rapid technological advances, large numbers of physical and chemical agents have been placed or released into man's external and internal environment with little thought about the possible long term effect of these on his own cells....On top of these the body may manufacture certain cancer producing chemicals as a result of other stimuli....Alexander Berglas regards the notion that we could control these environmental agents as utopian, and, therefore, demands an all-out attack on finding a cure for cancer a trult defeatist attitude....
"Our two main therapeutic weapons at present day are amputation of the growth by surgical means, and a variety of forms of radiation. Numerous workers have pointed out that such measure are merely temporary and restricted stop-gaps, and this is borne out by the poor survival rates after the use of such measures. The real attack on the treatment of malignant growths must come from intelligent interference with the catalase-peroxide mechanism (catalase is a body enzyme...)"
I'm going to stop there for today because I think that's a lot of information to process. There is so much more to come.
Lots of love and light to you all,

A Healthy, Happy 2014 to all!
I sincerely hope you had the best New Year's Eve ever-- and that you will make sure your 2014 rocks!
Remember, the divine is always looking out for each one of us.
Whenever you offer up your prayers to God, make sure you also pray for your enemies, too-- we all need guidance, light and love.
I've learned a lot since my almost one month hiatus from this blog. I am so excited to share everything with all of you and so thankful that you are on this journey with me.
What my goals are for 2014? I have no idea...I honestly haven't sat down long enough to go over this in my mind- but once I do, well-- better late than never.
Last year was the worst NYE ever. Literally. It was my fourth AVD chemo but they had added bleomyacin which caused toxic shock to my swollen eyes, caused me to hallucinate, pass out, and not come to until about an hour before the ball dropped. I had no idea how hard 2013 would be, but I made it out alive with God to Thank and now I'm going to live life to the fullest.
I do have some goals off hand that I will share with you--
- massively detox my body from all the poisons they pumped in me between November 2012 and August 2013.
- exercise. hike. swim. with dolphins. with sharks. with stingrays. I'm going to do it all as much as I can.
- Get another book published?
- Educate myself on nutrition, hopefully leading to some sort of opportunity or profession (wink, wink)
What are your goals?
How was your New Year's Eve?
Please let me know how you are!
Love and light and health to you all!
