voodoo doctor 101

this….is my friend shelly! (and her cute hubby chad) oh and I'm fairly certain she hates this pic because dear friend was quite prego but I think she is beautiful and glowing!

 

shel has been telling me for ages about her dear friend kathleen who had basically cured herself of cancer 20 years ago and is pretty much this amazing soul who has dedicated her life to helping others learn about healthy living, allergies, and herbs, vitamins and energy in your body. sound crazy???! well I am a believer! after hearing story after story of this amazing person I decided it was time to go see her! (well actually shel called and said we are going…pack your bag!) and sassy little me actually agreed!

so off to Cali we go in a smokin red minivan loaded up with her adorable baby Paige!  Paige is the happiest child and we were thinking we were going to be smooth sailing. however,  Paige wasn't the most agreeable this particular weekend. just a little fussy and really not happy with being in the car…come to find out…she had an ear infection the whole time and now looking back..I'm sure shel would agree with me..Paige was a GEM considering poor girl was in total pain! I mean really… how is one supposed to know a kid has an ear infection?no fever..no ear rubbing… I mean come on? londy has had this happen one too many times herself! but we could have a good time in a shoe box soooo…

  we enjoyed each others company, ate, ate some more and saw…the VOODOO daddy doc.

kathleen does muscle testing which also is known as kinesiology. she has studied this for 20 years and as weird as it all sounds I'm a believer! and hey…what have I got to lose? sit here do nothing and waste away or see if we cant kick this diseases a**

so after 2 hours and lots of talking and lots of  ah ha moments… I walk out of her store with a big hug and this…

inside this nifty little box when its filled accordingly is just one week of pills for miss bri. each day containing a whopping 25 vitamins. some as simple as vitamin D. others qual com 10? which puts O2 in my blood stream. hmmm oxygen in my blood for a person with lung disease…sounds pretty simple and easy to understand right? so here I go down this road of natural medicine. I'm sure many of you think I'm nuts! but truly I don't care:)

I'm gonna take care of this body for its the only one I've got!

on a funny note…after leaving kathleen I was highly optimistic and yet scared to death of all the things she told me my body was struggling with and boy was she dead on!! shels dear friend told us to head to the most amazing resort to take a walk on the beach…the montage in Laguna.

so we drive into this driveway and I'm telling shelly we are not going in! keep driving. people are waiting outside in sequins and 6inch stilettos!!

and valet is your only choice and the entrance is full of Bentleys, Mercedes and maseratis! we are sporting this van

full to the top with baby, takeout boxes and traveling paraphernalia! I seriously was dying..I could not stop laughing. truly a slinky, sexy, stylin place. and here we are..flip flops, capris and a stroller! did I mention greasy from all day? thought I was gonna wet my pants. shel just acted like she totally belonged as I giggled myself silly. so out to this view we went…

which was way more spectacular at night by the way and I am dying for the chance to stay there!

thanks shel for taking me and making me face a fear that really is gonna help save my life! thanks for letting us stay with your adorable sister and her 18month old sassy twins. thanks for forcing me outside my comfort zone at a beautiful place and for making me debate…did I just pee a little? as I giggled to the valet! xoxo
