 This is where you all can submit things that you overcame. Share your accomplishments, testimony or miracle. We want to hear about it!
Providing truth touches people on an emotional level. People usually can filter through what is real and what is exaggerated. Utilizing "your story" or "your insight" as an example, is proof to someone who is searching for answers.

 Death is only a Continuation... Many people fear or worry about death. But reality is that--> it is going to happen; eventually. This is why it is so important to choose life and not death. Life is everlasting, death is temporary. It's that simple. The temptations and ugly habits are what cause death. Striving to be right and live with intergrity, is life. Everything that you see and experience is only preparing you for what's to come. Our body is made of a spirit. Your spirit is really who you are. Your spirit must be nurtured daily with positivity and the things of God. I don't know if people really grasp that life is really a continuation. Because God is so just, he allows us to choose how we will live life on earth and thereafter. Of course being the most popular, or having an abundance of money, or even being propserous in every area of life is on many people's to-do list. But when all is said and done, who's approval do you really want? Worrying about who has this or that isn't going to help you exercise the friut of the spirit, which is Love. Driving a Bentley Coup is cool for now, but what about the heavenly rewards that we are promised if we just obey and follow the road less traveled. That Coup probably is like a pinto in Heaven! I was prompted to write on this subject because of the many devastations that are happening. Earthquakes and snow in March (for the southerners) is definitely a sign and hint to get it together before it's too late. If you are reading this, don't you know that because God loves you so much, that you have another opportuity to get it right. YOU could have been amongst the many people who died in natural disasters. Unknowingly, you could have attracted death via murder, a car accident, through a drug, because of health problems, or any other causes that result in death. Choose life. Because it goes on, and on, and on, and on, and on. It's FOREVER. It
never Stops. The choice is yours. God gives hints all the time to
pass the tests that seem so challenging. Get your mind right. He loves you and wants you to know that death is the begnning of life.(TNG)

February 2010
 
February has two very essential subjects that are
emphasized: Black History Month & Love. Black history Month has been
apart of my life ever since I could read and write. My parents always
taught the importance of learning "our" history and why it was
vital to my growth as an African American Female. Below is a link that
provides ALL of our history. Many people believe that our history
involves specifically how we were traded into slavery and the strides we made
as a culture since then, however, the neglect all the positive occurrences we
made. There are some inventions that many don't know about. Another
one of my vices involve everyone discussing Harriet Tubman, Malcolm X, MLK Jr.,
Frederick Douglas, Sojourner Truth, and Booker T. Washington. As an
adolescence, I can only recall learning about the leaders of the 1900s.
True, they are and will always remain significant; however, there are many
others that we must gain knowledge of and educate others about. There are certain things we
wouldn't have been able to do if it had not been for some of my ancestors.
We cover an array of industries! There were African American Inventors,
Scientists, Lawyers, and Doctors. We have way more talents then the
suggested-->Entertainment. Explore your heritage....
Love. OMG, that word is the epitome and essence or our being.
Nothing else really matters in life if one does not possess this fruit.
Our Maker and Universe is the source of Love and we shouldn't celebrate it only
on February 14. Love should be expressed every second, every minute,
every hour, and every day our lives. Love encompasses the fruit of the
spirit: {faithfulness, gentleness, goodness, joy, peace,
temperance/self-control, long-suffering/patience, and meekness} The
adjectives listed prior, all make up the four letter word. Daily we must
become aware of it and infectiously spread it. 
January 2010
This month, I have decided to particpate in a cleansing of the body, soul, and mind. It's called The 42 Day and 40 Day Miracle Program. I am about to embark on a six week journey. I have never done something like this, however, I understand that if I want to work on commitment issues or consistently in walking in my purpose; completing an experience that I have never encountered will expose and prepare me for the abundance and success that I am soon to create. I will document my EXPERIENCE biweekly. Are you up for the challenge? (TNG) Week 1 Week 5: 4 more days
The 40 Day Miracle involves abstaining from or counteracting the 7
deadly sins for a period of 40 days. These 7 sins have long been
recognized by the church as the 7 basic human behaviors and emotions
that cause most of our destruction and spiritual downfall. The Daily Proclamation sums up The 40 Day Miracle. 40 is the Biblical number of major change and preparation for destiny. ● To prepare for the new world it rained for 40 days and 40 nights
● After the rain stopped, Noah waited 40 days to open the Ark window
● Embalming required 40 days
● Moses stayed on the mountain 40 days (TWICE);
his face shone afterwards
● The spies spent 40 days searching out the Promised Land
● Israelites spent 40 years in the wilderness before the Promised Land
● Goliath challenged for 40 days before being killed by David
● Elijah strengthened by one angelic meal went 40 days to Mt. Horeb
● Jonah warned Nineveh they had 40 days till God overthrew the city
● Jesus fasted and was tempted 40 days in the wilderness
● Jesus was seen in the earth 40 days after His crucifixion
Often
when God wanted to prepare someone for a truly great destiny, He took
40 days and sent them through an experience somewhat unpleasant to the
flesh.
We all deal with the 7 deadly sins but rarely is there an
organized program to specifically give us the power to conquer them and
take our lives to a new level. If we examine our lives closely, we will
see that virtually all of our misery and unhappiness results from one
or more of these 7 deadly sins. If you don't think so, then listen to
the seven messages and you will see how they are involved in our pain.
When you can conquer something for 40 days, you will have the power and the knowledge to conquer it forever.
After you read over The 40 Day Miracle and Discover what it is and Decide that you want to Do
this, you must listen to the audio messages concerning the seven areas
and the specifics of each. The audio messages are free as is The 40 Day
Miracle. More accurately, we don't charge you anything. You must pay
the price of disciplining yourself.

 Marvelyn
Brown, a 25-year-old native Tennessean, was diagnosed with HIV at
age 19. Since then she has moved both live and television audiences
around the United States, Canada, Jamaica, Mexico, South Africa, Tanzania
and Rwanda with her compelling personal story. Brown has spoken at
over 100 colleges and universities nationwide. She is currently the
CEO and an Independent HIV Consultant for, Marvelous Connections.
Her humanitarian work earned her a 2007 Emmy Award for Outstanding
National Public Service Announcement. Brown’s autobiography,
The Naked Truth: Young, Beautiful and (HIV) Positive, was published
by Amistad/HarperCollins in 2008. The Naked Truth: Young, Beautiful and (HIV) Positive
Brown has had extensive radio
and television experience – some highlights include The Oprah
Winfrey Show discussing HIV/AIDS in America and the rising infection
rate among women, CNN's Documentary Black In America hosted by Soledad
O'Brien and the rising infection rate among women, America’s
Next Top Model, MTV, BET, The CBS Early Show, The Tavis Smiley Show,
The Tom Joyner Morning Show, The Michael Baisden Show, and The Tyra
Banks Show. In addition, she has been featured in Newsweek, U.S. News
and Report, Fortune 500, Ebony, Black Beat, Essence, and she appeared

Here are some quick facts about the deadly virus...
The HIV/AIDS Epidemic in the United States Is REAL—Get the Facts!
Before
we can stop any epidemic, we first have to recognize the magnitude of
the disease. HIV is still a threat across the United States. And even
though there are treatments to help people with HIV live longer than
ever before, AIDS is still a significant health issue. Surprised? Get
the facts:
- Every 9½ minutes (on average), someone in the United States is infected with HIV, the virus that causes AIDS.
- In 2006, an estimated 56,300 people became infected with HIV.
- More than 1 million people in the United States are living with HIV.
- Of
those 1 million people living with HIV, 1 out of 5 do not know they are
infected. (People who have HIV but don't know it can unknowingly pass
the virus to their partners.)
- Despite new therapies, people with HIV still develop AIDS.
- Over 1 million people in the United States have been diagnosed with AIDS.
- More than 14,000 people with AIDS still die each year in the United States.
People
here in the United States become infected with HIV far too often—on
average, every 9½ minutes. And it changes not only the lives of those
who become infected, but also the lives of their families and friends.
Even
though the epidemic is different in every city and every state, some
groups of people are harder hit by HIV than others. In the United
States, gay and bisexual men of all races bear the greatest burden.
Black men and women and Hispanic men also have very high rates of HIV
compared with other racial or ethnic groups.
It
is important for people to understand that race, by itself, is not a
risk factor for infection. Poverty, homelessness, lack of access to
health care, incarceration rates, drug use, and higher rates of
sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) can all increase rates of HIV.

About Thembi
Age: 23
Home: South Africa
Diagnosed: 2002
When she tested HIV positive in 2002 at the age of 16, Thembi
Ngubane of South Africa scarcely had an idea what HIV meant. Now 23,
she is one of the foremost HIV activists on the planet. She received
worldwide recognition in 2006, when National Public Radio featured a stunning audio diary she kept in 2004 and 2005. Here at the XVII International AIDS Conference, she has been a near-ubiquitous presence, giving speeches and even co-chairing a major session on the state of the HIV pandemic.
And did we mention that she has a 3-year-old, HIV-negative daughter? We
were fortunate enough to have the opportunity to sit down with Thembi
and hear her incredible story.
Can we start by hearing the story of how you found out that you were positive?
I tested HIV positive in 2002. I was 16. The reason why I went for
an HIV test was because my ex-boyfriend at that time had gotten sick in
the past few months, and then he died. No one would tell me why he
died. No one would tell me what he had. I felt it was my responsibility
to actually find out for myself if he did have HIV or AIDS. The only
thing to do, was for me to go for an HIV test. To read the rest of this amazing story Click here.

 New Kind of Breast Cancer
In November, a rare kind of breast cancer was found. A lady developed a
rash on her breast, similar to that of young mothers who are nursing.
Because her mammogram had been clear, the doctor treated her with
antibiotics for infections. After 2 rounds, it continued to get worse,
so her doctor sent her for another mammogram. This time it showed a
mass.
A biopsy found a fast growing malignancy. Chemo was started in order to
shrink the growth; then a mastectomy was performed; then a full round of
Chemo; then radiation. After about 9 months of intense treatment, she
was given a clean bill of health.
She had one year of living each day to its fullest. Then the cancer
returned to the liver area. She took 4 treatments and decided that she
wanted quality of life, not the after effects of Chemo. She had 5 great
months and she planned each detail of the final days. After a few days
of needing morphine, she died. She left this message to be delivered to
women everywhere:
Women, PLEASE be alert to anything that is not normal, and be persistent
in getting help as soon as possible.
Paget's Disease: This is a rare form of breast cancer, and is on the
outside of the breast, on the nipple and aureole It appeared as a rash,
which later became a lesion with a crusty outer edge. I would not have
ever suspected it to be breast cancer but it was. My nipple never seemed
any different to me, but the rash bothered me, so I went to the doctor
for that. Sometimes, it itched and was sore, but other than that it
didn't bother me. It was just ugly and a nuisance, and could not be
cleared up with all the creams prescribed by my doctor and dermatologist
for the dermatitis on my eyes just prior to this outbreak. They seemed a
little concerned but did not warn me it could be cancerous.
Now, I suspect not many women out there know a lesion or rash on the
nipple or aureole can be breastcancer. (Mine started out as a single red
pimple on the aureole. One of the biggest problems with Paget's disease
of the nipple is that the symptoms appear to be harmless. It is
frequently thought to be a skin inflammation or infection, leading to
unfortunate delays in detection and care.)
What are the symptoms?
1. A persistent redness, oozing, and crusting of your nipple causing it
to itch and burn (As I stated, mine did not itch or burn much, and had
no oozing I was aware of, but it did have a crust along the outer edge
on one side.)
2. A sore on your nipple that will not heal. (Mine was on the aureole
area with a whitish thick looking area in center of nipple).
3. Usually only one nipple is effected. How is it diagnosed? Your doctor
will do a physical exam and should suggest having a mammogram of both
breasts, done immediately. Ev en though the redness, oozing and crusting
closely resemble dermatitis (inflammation of the skin), your doctor
should suspect cancer if the sore is only on one breast. Your doctor
should order a biopsy of your sore to confirm what is going on.
This message should be taken seriously and passed on to as many of your
relatives and friends as possible; it could save someone's life.
My breast cancer has spread and metastasized to my bones after receiving
mega doses of chemotherapy, 28 treatments of radiation and taking
Tamaxofin. If this had been diagnosed as breast cancer in the beginning,
perhaps it would not have spread...
October 2009
October is especially important to me, because my beautiful aunt,
Maggie Snipe, and cousin, Ellen Coaxum, both died from this very harmful
disease. There memories still live on but everyone needs to become
educated about this disease. There are alternatives and information
out there.| |
Cancer Update from
John Hopkins

AFTER
YEARS OF TELLING PEOPLE CHEMOTHERAPY IS THE ONLY WAY TO TRY (TRY THE KEY WORD)
AND ELIMINATE CANCER, JOHN HOPKINS IS FINALLY STARTING TO TELL YOU THERE IS AN
ALTERNATIVE WAY .
1. Every person has cancer cells in the body. These cancer cells do not show up
in the standard
tests until they have multiplied to a few billion. When doctors tell cancer
patients that there are no more cancer cells in their bodies after treatment,
it just means the tests are unable to detect the cancer cells because they have
not reached the detectable size.
2. Cancer cells occur between 6 to more than 10 times in a person's lifetime
3. When the person's immune system is strong the cancer cells will be destroyed
and prevented
from multiplying and forming tumors.
4. When a person has cancer it indicates the person has multiple nutritional
deficiencies. These
could be due to genetic, environmental, food and lifestyle factors.
5. To overcome the multiple nutritional deficiencies, changing diet and
including supplements will strengthen the immune system.
6. Chemotherapy involves poisoning the rapidly-growing cancer cells and also
destroys rapidly-growing healthy cells in the bone marrow, gastro-intestinal
tract etc, and can cause organ damage, like liver, kidneys, heart, lungs etc.
7. Radiation while destroying cancer cells also burns, scars and damages
healthy cells, tissues and organs.
8. Initial treatment with chemotherapy and radiation will often reduce tumor
size. However prolonged use of chemotherapy and radiation do not result in more
tumor destruction.
9 When the body has too much toxic burden from chemotherapy and radiation the
immune system is either compromised or destroyed, hence the person can succumb
to various kinds of infections and complications.
10. Chemotherapy and radiation can cause cancer cells to mutate and become
resistant and difficult to destroy. Surgery can also cause cancer cells to
spread to other sites.
11. An effective way to battle cancer is to starve the cancer cells by not
feeding it with the foods it needs to multiply.
CANCER CELLS FEED ON:
a. Sugar is a cancer-feeder. By cutting off sugar it cuts off one
important food supply to the cancer cells. Sugar substitutes like NutraSweet,
Equal,Spoonful, etc are made with Aspartame and it is harmful. A better natural
substitute would be Manuka honey or molasses but only in very small amounts.
Table salt has a chemical added to make it white in color. Better alternative
is Bragg's aminos or sea salt.
b. Milk causes the body to produce mucus, especially in the gastro-intestinal
tract. Cancer feeds on mucus. By cutting off milk and substituting with
unsweetened soya milk cancer cells are being starved.
c. Cancer cells thrive in an acid environment. A meat-based diet is acidic and
it is best to eat fish, and a little chicken rather than beef or pork. Meat
also contains livestock antibiotics, growth hormones and parasites, which are
all harmful, especially to people with cancer.
d. A diet made of 80% fresh vegetables and juice, whole grains,seeds, nuts and
a little fruits help put the body into an alkaline environment.About 20% can be
from cooked food including beans. Fresh vegetable juices provide live enzymes
that are easily absorbed and reach down to cellular levels within 15 minutes to
nourish and enhance growth of healthy cells. To obtain live enzymes for
building healthy cells try and drink fresh vegetable juice (most vegetables
including bean sprouts)and eat some raw vegetables 2 or 3 times a day. Enzymes
are destroyed at
temperatures of 104 degrees F (40 degrees C).
e. Avoid coffee, tea, and chocolate, which have high caffeine.Green tea is a
better alternative and has cancer-fighting properties. Water-best to drink
purified water, or filtered, to avoid known toxins and heavy metals in tap
water. Distilled water is acidic, avoid it.
12. Meat protein is difficult to digest and requires a lot of digestive
enzymes. Undigested meat remaining in the intestines become putrified and leads
to more toxic buildup.
13. Cancer cell walls have a tough protein covering. By refraining from or
eating less meat it frees more enzymes to attack the protein walls of cancer
cells and allows the body's killer cells to destroy the cancer cells.
14. Some supplements build up the immune system (IP6, Flor-ssence,Essiac,
anti-oxidants, vitamins, minerals, EFAs etc.) to enable the body's own killer
cells to destroy cancer cells. Other supplements like vitamin E are known to
cause apoptosis, or programmed cell death, the body's normal method of
disposing of damaged, unwanted, or unneeded cells.
15. Cancer is a disease of the mind, body, and spirit. A proactive and positive
spirit will help the cancer warrior be a survivor. Anger, unforgiveness and
bitterness put the body into a stressful and acidic environment. Learn to have
a loving and forgiving spirit. Learn to relax and enjoy life.
16. Cancer cells cannot thrive in an oxygenated environment. Exercising daily,
and deep breathing help to get more oxygen down to the cellular level. Oxygen
therapy is another means employed to destroy cancer cells.
1. No plastic containers in micro.
2. No water bottles in freezer.
3. No plastic wrap in microwave.
Johns Hopkins has recently sent this out in its newsletters. This information
is being circulated at Walter Reed
Army
Medical Center as well.
Dioxin chemicals causes cancer,
especially breast cancer.
Dioxins are highly poisonous to the cells of our bodies.
Don't freeze your plastic bottles with water in them as this releases dioxins
from the plastic.
Recently, Dr. Edward Fujimoto, Wellness Program Manager at
Castle Hospital , was on a TV program to explain this health
hazard. He talked about dioxins and how bad they are for us.. He said that we
should not be heating our food in the microwave using plastic containers.
This especially applies to foods that contain fat. He said that the combination
of fat, high heat, and plastics releases dioxin into the food and ultimately
into the cells of the body. Instead, he recommends using glass, such as Corning
Ware, Pyrex or ceramic containers for heating food. You get the same results,
only without the dioxin. So such things as TV dinners, instant ramen and soups,
etc., should be removed from the container and heated in something else.
Paper isn't bad but you don't know what is in the paper. It's just safer to use
tempered glass, Corning Ware, etc. He reminded us that a while ago some of the
fast food restaurants moved away from the foam containers to paper. The dioxin
problem is one of the reasons.
Also, he pointed out that plastic wrap, such as Saran, is just as dangerous
when placed over foods to be cooked in the microwave. As the food is nuked, the
high heat causes poisonous toxins to actually melt out of the plastic wrap and
drip into the food. Cover food with a paper towel instead.

| I am grateful that my cousin Tiffany is in good spirits even though she is on bed rest for the remainder of her pregnancy (she's 24 weeks)..So please say a small prayer for her and baby Kaidyn and that he stays inside until he's 28 weeks. | Kim Hendrix
| Please let your cousin know that this is a special baby that is why she is having such a problem. I speak from experience because my oldest daughter was born early and she is definitely a spiritual and special child. All of my babies are special but she was a see-er at an early age, she was prophesied on that she would be able to see the things God had in store for her and everyone around her before they happened. My water broke at 24 weeks after having what I thought were Braxton Hicks. They put me in the hospital on bed rest for three weeks trying to keep her in but she wasn’t having it. She came anyway at 27 weeks and was small but healthy. She stayed in the neo-native care nursery for 3 ½ weeks and finally came home. She had no birth defects or trouble breathing, they only kept her because she was so small. The doctors kept trying to delay my labor because they said she was too early and would be at risk but to me she was right on time (Christmas). She was my angel and that is exactly what I named her. She is now 11 years old and is the sweetest and most loving child and also my healthiest child. Let Tiffany know not to be afraid for herself or her baby because God has a plan for this child and she will see it. Her baby will be healthy and strong no matter how early he is born.
