Merry Christmas 2011

Hello all,

I hope you all had a very Merry Christmas.  We have been ultra blessed this year.  Lynda has had a great year both from a food allergy wise and health wise.  Here skin looks great.  So how have we gotten there since Nov?  Since Nov. Lynda and Dad have been diagnosed with a fungal infection.  So what does that mean? Well since dad is allergic to the traditional medicine and we did not want to risk it with Lynda we are going the natural route.  Eliminating most foods from our diet- almost everything processed.  Dad was bad enough that he had to go on a modified Raw Diet. Yep 80% raw veggies only 2 eggs a day max and 2 slices of bread.  No cheese, port of any kind or sweets (other than a few fresh fruits that are limited on amount).  Red meat- 2 3oz servings a week.  I went on Candita X and Lynda on Sporex along with a probiotic.  Well the result has been amazing.  I am not sure I can remember when Lynda's skin looked so good and she has been very healthy this year (knock on wood).  She has been able to fight off colds and flu with her own immune system.  

If you have food allergies you may want to look into being tested for fungal infection.  In my case my body was literally shutting down.  If you are in the eastern Iowa, message me and I will get you to a Dr. that can help you out.  Message us and we will hook you up.

WOW has it really been since April?????

Well it has been an interesting summer.  Lynda was diagnosed with a fungal infection.  So did dad- so we went on special medicine and a special diet.  Dad has lost 34 lbs in 6 weeks and got rid of the infection- Lynda's skin is doing GREAT!  To boot her immune system is kicking in too and she has not had as many asthma attacks, no hospital visits (totally knocking on wood right now) and has not miss any days at school.  

Her acupuncture is going well too.  She has been able to live a much more normal life.

We have a lot to be thankful for this year.  Season greetings.

Where have we been?

Well it has been a while. Lynda has been struggling with her allergies and has seemed to be sick a lot lately. Currently we have an ear infection and she has been a hurting unit. She is also been doing laser acupuncture and eye therapy to help with her asthma and vision issues. We are not sure where the vision issues stem from, but we need to get the corrected to make sure she does not fall behind in her education.

Some interesting items in the news dealing with food and food allergies. One school has determined that unless you have food allergies you are no longer allowed to bring lunch from home. It could be interesting for those families that can not really afford lunches, yet do not qualify for free or reduced lunches..

We should be here a bit more often, the world has just gotten a bit crazy.

Have a great weekend.

Thanks KCRG for helping awarenes with Children in the area with Food Allergies

This is a story on KCRG this morning about Garrett- he has food allergies similar to Lynda.  We looked at this option a couple years ago, but with her allergies to dogs did not make it feasible for us. If there is any way you can help this family- visit his fan page on Facebook and donate.

You can see the video HERE.  

I really like the reporter spent time talking about how easy it is to cross contaminate by just touching a door knob etc. 

Keep your kids safe!
