In honor of National Breast Cancer Month, Beliefnet (actually, I think my editor, Holly, did it, but I’m probably not supposed to say who) compiled a beautiful gallery of prayers, mantras, and simple words of comfort for those who are living with cancer.

I feel compelled to say this (for whatever it’s worth)
Cancer is produced by our own bodies, in an attempt to correct a problem. It is an overproduction of cells (a lot like a bruise) When something enters your body(either physical or mis-communication) two signals are immediately sent to your brain 1- Is it me? and 2- Is it not me? If it is read as “Not me” your body will immediately attack it (a lot of auto-immune disease, is your own body attacking itself) Your brain realizes that it needs sustanance to survive, and so it accepts things like food, and then converts it to the Me (or is that pro-verts?)
I almost died from a cholesterol problem. Cholesterol is what your body uses to repair damage (cell walls are composed of cholesterol) Trans-fat (anything hydrogenized) causes irritation in your blood stream and your brain sends cholesterol and calcium to correct it. Since we keep ingesting all this trans-crap, the cholesterol cannot correct the problem, and an overbundance collects in the walls of the artery (not in the artery)If it continues it will eventually burst. If it goes to your heart, you may have a heart attack and die. If it goes away from your heart, you may develop diabetes,cancer, high blood pressure, poor circulation, and any other number of maladies. If the bubble bursts on the outside, you will bleed out into your chest cavity and also die. I am the trans-fat generation, and have been eating that crap for most of my Life…You are far better off eating butter (what the hell makes us think that we can do it better than God ?)… Read the Labels … “Don’t eat anything man made ” (Jack La Lane-98)

Let me add this in. There are only 3 States in the good ol’ US of A that trans-fat is illegal in food. It appears to me, when the economy of our Nation is at stake, individual lives become expendable !
