I have to leave a note here..I recently had a doctor tell me that I might have a serious tumor. At that point my mind took over…it was no longer MIGHT HAVE..it was I HAD…over the weekend I literally made myself sick..the outcome was I did not..NOW..if I could literally make myself sick..why can’t I make myself well…if it works one way…why not the other…I don’t think there is any doubt..it is how do we unlock the mystery.
