Have you ever been so passionate about something that it makes you almost cry? I have....I AM! I am this passionate about seeing lives changed. I am this passionate about health and wellness.........BUT I am even more passionate about kicking cancer to the curb!
Do you realize that the American Cancer Society says that 90% off all cancers are preventable! What does that mean? LIFESTYLE choices are killing us.....literally! Many people have the "not me" approach to cancer or the "well, if it's my time" ideaology. I may or may not change your mindset, but at least indulge me for these few minutes. I would love to tell you my story and see if it at least makes you think twice about what you allow in your house, on your skin, in the air around you....and in your mouth!
When I was twenty years old, I had a twenty eight year old sister get diagnosed with cancer. Yes---TWENTY EIGHT! Most people would think little of that and assume that she is young and strong and would kick this fast and hard. And, I think that is what she thought too! Oh how clueless we can be sometimes.
I watched my sister go from a vibrant young mother of a ten year old boy to a shell of existance and then finally to an angle all over the very long extended period of EIGHT months. Yup--only eight!!! But it was the longest eight months of my life.
If you have ever watched a person die of cancer it is one of the most debilitating, helpless, life changing experiences ever. Add on top of that a young boy watching his mother go through this and it is heart breaking!
I do not wish this experience on ANYONE ever! After doing so much research, I realized that her cancer COULD very well have been prevented and that my father in law's cancer and my grandpa's cancer all COULD have been prevented......it burns me up! WHY are we not told this.
Of course we are told that cigarettes cause cancer and that the sun can cause cancer but who tells us that the shampoo and conditioner you use or the laundry soap or the sunscreen (ya know to prevent that other cancer) all can be causing cancer?!?!?!?! How is this allowed?
I realize that some people may feel like I am a broken record constantly teaching about a chemical free lifestyle and how we use Young Living products to accomplish this......BUT.......thats ok. I wish someone had told my sister.....OVER and OVER and OVER until she listened!
If I offend you with my rantings...I am sorry........but not really! You can pass me by or unfriend me or just not listen. But if I can get through to one person and change their lives.......It is all worth it!
