" The debilitating disease called Multiple
Sclerosis had put me on death's doorstep. Today my body is healed! "
Several
years ago, I went into an MS chat room to keep myself abreast of what was being said about MS and how those diagnosed with
this dreadful illness cope with the constant assault of symptoms. I was stunned at what I was reading although I should not
have been. I watched the conversations unfold with nine people. It saddened me to see these words repeated over and over.
" I can't do this" or "my husband has to do that" or " my kids have to help me with. . .". I was about to leave that chat room when I asked the question, "How many of you have MS?"
One person replied, " We all do, what about you Dyanna?" I wrote back "I had MS". In a flash, I received
"had, had, had, had had?" nine in a row. The apparent spokesperson of this group replied "What do you mean
had?" I wrote " Yes, I healed completely from MS". "How did you do that?" came from another
person. I wrote back " I healed by diet." "Well what did you eat?" "Oh, fruits and vegetables mostly,"
I responded. One person wrote back " I hate veggies". I replied, " I hated MS". Surprised at no response
to my answer, I left that MS chat room never to return because of my heavy heart. I was astounded at the obvious
acceptance of their plight by all nine people and I thought to myself that their is an obvious lack of REAL support for any
person who suffers from such a debilitating state of being. For this very reason, I have created this website and host
my own radio show to give you free of charge the methods I implemented that changed my life. . . forever. Thank you to everyone
for taking the time to read or listen to such invaluable information that took commitment and a strong-willed determination
to give others hope that may produce another miracle.

Neurologists and others have called me a “living
miracle”. The National Multiple Sclerosis Society calls me a phenomenon. I hear all the time how my recovery is miraculous.
I'm not a miracle as far as healing from MS, but more from coming back from where I was to now. All I know is that I had
choices. I wanted to get rid of the disease that owned me. I had no guidance. I was living on pure faith. Faith I didn't
know I had, but combined with desire and commitment gave me the result I had been looking for and it worked. If that's
a miracle, then so it is. I prefer to call it a blessing.
And the best thing by far about my blessing is that I
can pass it on. Western medicine declares MS as being incurable. My health is proof otherwise. As far as I know, I am the
first person to claim complete recovery from MS by simple dietary measures and the power of positive thinking. I am determined
not to be the only one. I want lots of company.
My experience with this disease was so devastating that I
cannot bear the thought of another person suffering as I have. Regardless of the disease or it's given name. It would
be tragic not to share with everyone the simple methods available that have contributed to my newfound vitality of life.
I have not always been a spiritually strong person. My journey changed me to just that. I am, however, extremely strong-willed.
I know this has contributed to my well-being, emotionally, mentally, physically, and yes, even spiritually. I firmly believe
that my strong will and determination to continue to live (despite moments when I wanted to give up) and help others has molded,
shaped, and groomed me for fulfilling a greater purpose in life. To help others is my ultimate dream.
My thought
used to be, “Well, I can't possibly get any worse except to die.” I had to change my thinking. That negative
thinking was working against me. I wanted a second chance. At some point, I was given the foresight to see that in order to
help anyone else with similar problems, I first had to defeat this disease myself. With help, I have done this! People I met
along my journey gave me through encouragement and gave me hope and inspiration. I have blossomed and bloomed into a firmly
grounded, healthy, spiritual person and am living as each day comes, not in the past and filled with anticipation for great
things for tomorrow.
During my recovery, as I began to give testimony of the overwhelmingly positive effects
of simple nutritional changes and the power of positive thinking that I implemented into my lifestyle, I soon found myself
speaking to more and more people about what they could do to improve their health. Grocery stores, buses, doctors' offices,
department stores, shopping malls, street corners, and on and on, have been the backdrops for conversations.
I
eventually began speaking to people all across the country and Canada on my cell phone. I explained methods I used to combat
this serious illness (from my own experience with MS and what I have learned through self-study over the past six years).
I could see I was still not reaching enough people by telephone. Meanwhile, more and more people began asking me to write
a book. There are people I have spoken to who don't believe something as simple as diet and self-will could be the answer
to healing. I say, “If you don't try it, you will never know. You don't have anything to lose, but everything
to gain.” Others have replied, “I don't think I can change my diet, I love food”. Some have lacked patience
and want the overnight cure-all and others will not waiver from their doctor's advice. And still others have given up
and have no hope.
I do not claim to have all the answers to all the questions, all the objections. I am just
sharing what worked for me. I know it will work for you! This book is an answer to prayer. It was also courageous for me,
since I wasn't really a writer. I was walking on pure faith each step of my journey, taking one baby step at a time.
It just made sense for me to share my life's discoveries with others, because my entire adult life (looking back
now) has been doing just that, helping others. Each step I took laid the foundation for the evolution of this book, and it
was obvious to me that it would be based on faith. This book has become a workbook from my personal experience on how to live,
step by step, a promising, healthy life, for all who choose to implement the suggested information. I am grateful to everyone
who has touched my life with advice and blessings, and to those yet to enter my life.
My journey will continue
bringing me something new each day. The training I have had through life experience has resulted in my having a joyous and
fulfilling life, looking back now. I'm living on top of the world.
Sharing my experiences with MS, including
the list of symptoms I have overcome, has but one purpose. Education. I believe it's important for people to know just
how disabling the disease really is. I also believe that anyone who has this disease and any other can do as I have done.
We don't have to “learn how to live with it” anymore. MS has and can be defeated!
Detailing my
journey is also to reveal my discovery of the widespread discrimination that exists against disabled persons because of a
sad lack of knowledge of the law. The Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (ADA) was created to prevent this
very discrimination.
In my own journey, I often found that even law enforcement, judicial, and other public
entities were ignorant of the ADA and its contents. This ignorance often had painful consequences to me, but was necessary
for my own refinement and growth for others. I would not trade my experiences for anything. My desire is
to pave the way and facilitate access to public entities, goods, and services for the disabled and their service animals.
By no means do I suggest replacing orthodox treatment with the simple methods that helped me. I am not out to “prove”
or debate anything, nor do I suggest for anyone seriously ill to work toward improved health without the guidance of a health-care
professional. I simply know for myself that alternative methods work.
I have my second chance at life. This information
is my gift to you. I hope and pray that it will bring joy, health, spiritual satisfaction, and creativity into your life .
. . and that you too may desire to live life to the fullest. I am fulfilling my destiny and I found my purpose. Now, won't
you join me and discover and fulfill yours.
