They call me “The Miracle Man!”

 

They call me “The Miracle Man!”

They call me “The Miracle Man” this is my story. 

Even though I am walking around on my own now, for a long time in my life I was only able to sit in a wheelchair. After contracting an illness that forced me to retire from my job, where I worked 60-80 hour weeks, I found myself confined to a wheelchair for over 30 years. I was in severe discomfort  and had terrible tremors and took 5 medicines. I could no longer be independent and do all the things that I loved doing - walking, working in my garden, even to stand on my own 2 feet. I was constantly asking my neurologist for anything to help me stand up. However I was denied any new treatments, or participation in test groups because of my lack of mobility and my age. Needless to say I was hopeless and depressed, because I didn’t realize the benefits of something I had until I no longer had it. 

Then in April 2012, a friend who, for the last year, had been telling me of this product that has no side effects, said “Jim, it’s time.” So, I finally ordered the product, and started drinking 2oz twice a day when it arrived a few days later. Within 1 weeks I started to get my strength back and was able to stand, holding onto the wheelchair. This gave me hope and I continued to take the product consistently.

Today, 8 years later, I am no longer confined to the wheelchair! I ride my exercise bike for miles at a time, I mow my lawn, I work in my garden behind my roll tiller. I even WALK 6 miles in town. I no longer take medicines for the sickness, and the pain and tremors are next to nothing. Now when I visit my neurologist, he says “it is a miracle to have a person that has been in a wheelchair for so long to be able to get up and walk as good as I do”

Redox Signaling and the Nervous System

Redox Signaling and the Nervous System



Redox Signaling and the Nervous System
Nervous System
The unique and specialized cell design and function of our nervous system makes the miracle of transmitting highly specialized messages from “head to toe” possible. This capacity is shadowed by the vulnerability of nerve cells to toxins and damage, coupled with their slow repair rates, resulting in susceptibility to aging and disease. REDOX molecules are integrally involved in both messaging in nerve cells and propagate the repair of these vital cells.
Nerve cell communication:
Nerve cells actually “talk” with each other with chemical messengers called neurotransmitters. This conversation occurs in the synapse, a tiny gap that exists between cells. The health of the gap, and the molecular resources, are vital to the messaging capacity. REDOX molecules maintain the integrity of the gap and transport membrane resources and the supply of the neurotransmitter messenger molecules. Lost messages can be critical to our health, and moreover confusing messaging can lead to improper information. For example, a person who has a sensation of a burning foot even though it does not exist, is a condition called neuropathy.
Our Brain supports Immune Health:
Multiple areas of the brain have cells that primarily support immune function by surging into action under the direction of REDOX molecules, in response to certain challenges from pathogens, like germs and toxins. Our white blood cells have receptors and neuropeptides that allow the immune cells to understand what needs to be done. Or in other words, the white bloods cells analyze the germ and respond with an appropriate attack. REDOX molecules represent the language and the conversations that these cells use to discuss their battle plans.
Blood Brain Barrier Integrity:
There is a barrier that protects the brain from invasion of germs or toxins known as the blood brain barrier. It is a very fine living filter that only allows tiny molecules to enter the brain tissue itself. The transport of resources across this specialized filter requires a transit system which is operated by REDOX molecules. The structure of these cells and the specialized filter membrane, the barier vulnerable to attack by oxidative stress and free radical damage. REDOX molecules supply the necessary blood brain barrier molecules to promote its specialized functions and protect its work.

My 2019 Mission Report

My 2019 Mission Report



My 2019 Mission Report

The 2019 was a very interesting year for me and my wife. I was asked if I could help this mission group at a church with their project of making sleeping mats for the homeless and totes that the people could use for shopping or carrying their clothing, supplies like food and health needs.
This is one of the shopping totes
This is a special set that I made for a young Man who likes
John Deere tote and lap blanket
These are Prayer Shawls and Totes ready to go to Missions
So for the year of 2019 I crocheted the following:
141 Shopping Totes
28 Sleeping Mats (32 inches wide-72 inches long )
23 Door and Bath Mats
32 Prayer Shawls
4 Lap Blankets ( for persons at a Home that do not get any one to come and visit them)
It takes about 5 hours to crochet 1 tote with the help of my wife to do the prep work and I do the crochet work.
Takes two days to crochet a sleeping mat that is (32 inches wide – 72 inches long)
This has been a big project to take on. It is very interesting to see what can be made from the plastic bags that you get from the store when you purchase your goods. This is called plarn and is very interesting to work with. There is not very much left from the bag after my wife cuts the loops. This keeps the plastic bags out of the land fill. I’m making something to share with someone sick or in need. It is very interesting what the finished tote looks like after crocheting the same two colors and no two bags are the same because my hands have crocheted them.
Thank goodness for my ASEA and REN U 28 for my hands and eyes after a day of making a tote and a mat.
