One Year Ago Today

Pss. 30:2 “O LORD my God, I cried unto thee, and thou hast healed me.”

One Year Ago Today

January 25, 2017, was one of the worst days of my life! That was the day I had an appointment with a doctor. I wasn’t told by my GP that she was a breast surgeon. Everything about doctors, to me, is a secretive mysterious puzzle of sorts.

The tests of the day were excruciating, to say the least. I had no say in the matter as to what was going to happen to me that day. I wasn’t given a choice, I was just told by a surgeon, that was only going by what she felt (the lump) that I had cancer and that a string of tests was in order to confirm.

If I was told about the tests doing more harm than good, I would have gone home to cry that instant but instead, I was wheeled from one test to the other. Pressed, prodded and poked in a puddle of tears left behind. 

When I finally returned home from all of the tests, I had to face my son, I had to tell my niece. She is a Reiki specialist and knows her stuff when it comes to holistic healing. She didn’t have one ounce of negativity in her words. She filled me with hope and inspired me to take on the whole team of oncologists and put them in their place. They worked for ME, not the other way around. They were not going to shape my disease in any way! 

You are free to read my last years worth of posts, all documenting this wondrous journey. My plans are to write a book, Beating Cancer on a Budget but as you know, I have to beat this disease before the book will ever see the light of day. But my blog is the (partial) documentation I’ll need to put the book together.

I am going to admit that the diagnosis that came two weeks after the tests were cryptic, to say the least. I was never given a stage of the BC, I was only told what HAD to be done, the chemicals and drugs that would be put into my system via an IV and pills/drugs I would take for ten years, the radiation and cutting of my body that I’d need; not one ounce of positivity. What they didn’t know was that I’m an optimist, in every sense of the word. They could not, as hard as they tried, fill me with fear of the disease that takes millions of lives!

Today’s post is not about the ‘bad news’ I received on this day a year ago. This post is about the BLESSING I received in knowing I, Joni, was given a second chance to turn my life around and change some wrongs and make them RIGHT! I peeked into the window of all the detrimental toxic treatment I had given my body over the years that basically is the cause of this disease. First on the agenda, life-changing protocol for daily living.

In the eyes of the medical profession, this disease cannot be won without their money-grabbing negativity infused treatment. Little do they know, or want to admit, there are thousands of people out here in the world successfully treating themselves with no surgery, zero radiation, and most of all no DRUGS!

After the diagnosis, the year of toxic weight lost, the abundance of pivotal supplements, I am healed! Have I received verification? Of course not, the doctors threw up their hands and disposed of me, moving onto their next victims of the disease.

I say I am healed because I asked my Lord and Savior and we’ve had some long talks over this year, He confirms all I need to know. You don’t need to wish me a happy anniversary because it is not a HAPPY anniversary, this is a day I wish to put behind me in my pile of negative build-up rubble. 

This is the day the Lord has made, I will REJOICE and be glad in it! I will not be sitting behind the screen today, I’m going to go out for awhile and love life. The NEW life I live with God beside me all the way.

All praise and Glory to Him! 

Pss. 118: 24 “This is the day which the Lord hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it.”

Wow, I picked an incredible day to visit your blog. I'm so glad you're feeling stronger and healthier--I pray for your continued good health. At my house, we've been working hard on improving our health, too. My son suffered a life-changing accident last year, and our entire family has been working hard to help his body and soul heal, and at the same time improve our own. Thank you for sharing lifestyle changes that are working for you.

Thank you, Von!

My prayers for you and your family on a healing journey. Sometimes we always think of the worst, but when measured can be a life-changing blessing. We just never know.

I AM feeling great (and looking great too, I might add) fifty pounds lighter will do that to a woman. ;) I wouldn't trade this event in my life for the world.

Glad you picked today to visit! :)

*hugs* and love to you and yours!

A year has gone by and you have yet to tell me how M&Ms can help me. I feel so used. :(

*HUGS!* You hung in and have overcome, and the Lord has been there with you. Truly a year of radical differences! Carry on, Toots! :D

M&M's can help you...
raise your blood pressure.
add some pounds
cause your face to break out in a vapid rash
they can help you lose sleep
dye your fingers
look like you robbed a bank and the ink pack exploded

They can help you in all sorts of ways. Don't say I didn't warn ya! lol :)

I had a great day today. Was out of the house, the sky had crosses scattered (airplanes left nice trails) it was 53 degrees and sunny! Just a great day all around, not one tear shed! :D

*hugs* <3
