There comes a season in each of our lives where we are faced with decisions that need to be made from an unknown place of uncertainty. I personally found myself there in 2016 when one of my children began experiencing traumatic physical break downs within her body. The level of burning sensations and aches was noted the highest on the McGill pain scale used by medical professions to assist in offering a plan for relief, something we were never able to receive from any Doctors in the state of Minnesota. We saw every expert possible to receive a diagnosis and treatment to save my daughters health as she continued to rapidly decline in just a few short months. Her health declined to the point of being completely immobile and wheelchair bound. Losing all control of everything sensory related, self care and living life undiagnosed. As a full time Mom I couldn’t continue to go on, we were both physical and mentally exhausted from the run around to appointments and lack of medical support from specialists. I remember clear as day when my fight inside became stronger, it began with our last overnight stay at the University of Minnesota hospital where a packed room of 20 medical professionals, specialists and pain management team gathered to attempt diagnosing my child who had suffered for so long already. A simple Tylenol offered her insides zero relief, the only thing keeping her strong was the nightly routine of holding her close, keeping the television on with a fun show and singing songs to her to keep her mind from recognizing the fire going on inside her body that created a ring of fire on the outside layer of her skin. A simple touch felt like she was being stabbed by a million knives! The main Doctor pulled me aside and said “I believe I know what your daughter has” . . . but I will tell you tomorrow morning. Anxiously awaiting his morning arrival, barely surviving the night with limited sleep he told me my daughter was lying! My mouth dropped open and I spoke as calm as I possibly could. "You are wrong" and "I have no idea how you carry a medical license". I proceeded to say "I will be back in the future after I heal my child and you need to be ready". I sprang into action and googled every symptom I could find piecing together what I self diagnosed her with as AMPS (amplified musculoskeletal pain syndrome), a common medical condition in which an individual develops an abnormal pain reflex caused by a simple bug bite, sports injury or virus effecting teen girls as the majority but still continuously adding in young male athletes to the growing percentage.
That day I remember seeing a friend celebrating the fact she could finally “wear socks again” because her inflammation went down in her legs. I reached out to her to discover she was taking a supplement line. Although as a skeptic myself having been in the health and wellness industry for almost 28 years at the time. I was puzzled, yet desperate. I ordered up a month of supplements without hesitation. Day 1 I gave my daughter the supplements and stuck the patch on her body, I was still a bit in a busy fog all day but I remember clear as day that evening as I tucked myself into bed I leaned over and asked my husband to listen. His response was “I don’t hear anything”, that was the very first night my daughter and I slept through the night with no whimpering or getting up in the middle of the night to get her comfortable. Just a night full of relaxation and peaceful sleep. I was amazed! So I began taking some for myself the very next day and over just a few short days I began to gain back my energy levels, sleep, clear mindset and feeling ready to get my child healthy again. I discovered only a few hospitals that ran programs to treat children with AMPS, one had a 2 year waiting list and the others were so far away, but thankfully a new program opened up in Nebraska which was drivable and easier to get a severe wheelchair bound child to.
Fast forwarding almost 4 years later my child is completely restored and healthy! She had the nutritional tools to guide her body back to lower inflammation levels, absorbing further nutrients from food and crushed her way out of a wheelchair to a healthy sassy fun teenager by retraining her physical body with pilates, swimming, weightlifting, painting, walking and psychology to take back control of her mindset. It was during these 2 months of intense boot camp that I watched my daughter go through hell while living out of a hotel room. I realized the power of filling in nutritional gaps and keeping the vitamin and mineral deficiencies we all currently struggle with balanced will improve your health and fight to WIN and gain back better quality of life!
The absorption ratio is 96-98% instead of the average 6% we are offered by store shelf brands, this supplement line has been a game changer for my family and I know it will enhance the health of anybody to better them once they begin their journey.
We all have a story, and it's important we take the time to share with others, that way it gets to someone who has been praying for an option that will change their daily living and offer them the opportunity to grow and get healthy.
Cheers to living your best life through your Healthiest Version of you!
