"The
choice between love and fear is made
every moment in our hearts and minds.
That is where the peace process begins.
Without peace within, peace in the world is
an empty wish. Like love, peace is extended.
It cannot be brought from the world to the
heart. It must be brought from each heart
to another, and thus to all mankind."

FIRST
ITEM: I
received a powerful letter from Arnold of Arnold's Way in Pennsylvania that
I would like to share with you. Arnold was moved to write about Matt's Kidney
Failure and how Matt was told by 2 medical doctors that one of his kidneys absolutely,
positively had to come out. According to the doctors there were no other options.
But through a series of seeming coincidences, Matt ended up at Arnolds Way where
he got the idea that it wouldn't hurt to change his diet. Please read the story
below to see what happened.
January 10, 2003
- Kidneys
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
GREETINGS AND SALUTATIONS from Arnold's Way!
Within the illusion of time,
Stark realities of darkness and light cross paths
Choices of truth - choices of no one knows why
A glimmer of hope
The scalpel awaits its first cut
Glaring light - white sheets - everyone supposedly cares
An instant of repent draws closer to one's self
A choice is made to follow the love of God - the love of self
A choice for truth rings out loud
It's a Tuesday morning but it could have been any other day. The outcome of
this newsletter would still be the same. This week's topic is one of great pain,
one of great joy. It's one of those topics on what was supposed to be becoming,
exactly that, what it was supposed to be. I speak quiet gratitude of Matt who
was given choices, choices that were not easy to make. Who in his quiet way
went with a deeper knowledge, a deeper commitment, a deeper respect of who he
is from where his roots are to what are the possibilities.
Matt's story is that of choices, up until three months ago when he dealt with
getting one of his kidney's removed. The medical community gave him his options
- NONE. He was diagnosed as incurable. It is on that note that we delve deeper
into his story, deeper into the miraculous operation of what our kidneys do.
What are the implications when two, so-called medical experts quietly inform
you that one of your kidneys is no longer functioning and as quoted, "it
has to come out". These are the words I first heard when I met Matt. So,
I sit in quiet reflection admiring my inner strength for I know what to do.
I sit in quiet respect, for we as a people as a human life have the innate knowing,
and the innate instinct to take a proactive movement when we hear such dreaded
language. My friends there are no accidents that happen within our human body.
I frantically search for the right words, the right reference that would give
Matt the due justice of doing the right thing, right, not only for himself but
as an inspiration to thousands of others when they too are told by expert medical
opinion, "there is no hope - it has to come out".
According to Dr. George H. Malkmus, in "Why People Get Sick", "This
physical body temple we each dwell in is a living organism designed by God to
be nourished with living food. The genesis 1:29 diet given to mankind by God
at creation was a 100% raw and vegetable diet". It is on this basis we
have health; it is on this basis we have disease. It is on this basis that the
tests and diagnosis by the medical establishment should be heard with caution
rather than acceptance. According to Robert S. Mendelsohn M.D., "Confession
of a Medical Heretic". He quotes, "The diagnostic tests themselves
are dangerous. The stethoscope is nothing but the priestly doctor's religious
badge. As a tool it does more harm than good". These are the words I am
reading on the first page. As we scan more sentences as quoted, "I don't
advise anyone who has no symptoms to go to the doctor for physical examination.
For people with symptoms, it's not such a good idea." These are words that
Matt did not know. He trusted his doctors, he trusted the tests, and he would
have done anything they said, almost, to the point of giving up his kidney.
Matt's story goes back five years prior when he began having stomach pain. This
pain not only got progressively worse, his stomach area began protruding almost
an inch. Matt had to do the only thing he knew to do - visit his local doctor.
I'm writing Matt's story and I'm drinking water......lots of H20. As much water
as my body can hold. The reason is my body is 70% water-not an accident. It
has to be at 70% water, for my body requires that much daily. The book by Dr.
Batmanghelidj, "The Body's Many Cries for Water" states, coffee, tea,
or soda all contain caffeine. Caffeine is a dehydrating agent. It gets your
kidneys to flush more water out. It has a direct effect on the renal tubes.
It tells them to get rid of water.
I wonder if Matt knew that, I wonder if his doctor knew that. I asked Matt what
were his dietary habits. The first question I always ask. His local doctor never
asked. Was Matt drinking plenty of water? Was Matt on a high protein diet? Was
Matt taking supplements to increase his weight lifting? Was Matt eating food
that was water deficient? Were all these things happening so the body had no
choice in the matter but to inflame itself? Did his local doctor have an alternative
option, an alternative solution that would supersede Matt's biological genetic
need for more pure H20 and more raw food? Yes, in his opinion food did not matter-water
did not matter-the only thing that mattered was a CAT scan. It costs $6,000
per test! What would Dr. Robert Mendelsohn M.D. say to that? What would Dr.
Batmanghelidj say? What would Dr. George H. Malkmus say? It doesn't matter.
Matt only knew of the standard medical procedure, which advocates diagnostic
tests, x-rays, and medication. These are the options. So.......Matt took the
test. In less than an hour his wife was called of his grave situation. He was
told they needed another CAT scan at the rate of $6,000 per test. Matt's problem
as quoted, "Hydro-Nethrosis", a bladder urethra blockage-cannot drain.
What were his options? Water......maybe drinking 8-10 glasses per day as a treatment.
How about getting rid of all those foods that cause a kidney blockage? Could
that be an option?
Matt was referred to a urologist who looked at his test, who looked at the CAT
scan, looked at the results with his many years of experience in the medical
field. He quotes, "This is pretty serious, the kidney stone which is caused
by some unknown reason has left your kidney not functioning". The urologist
further stated the kidney had to come out right away and that he would do the
operation. My estimate, an operation of this nature would cost around 30-50
thousand dollars.
A kidney removal is not life threatening. Matt could continue having a life,
supposedly. Once again never even breathe of other possibilities other than
what he {the doctor} was diligently trained for. Matt also never asked about
different options. He was also led to believe that the doctors were working
in his best interest.
So.....what do we do? Do we continue the story or take a suspended animation
break. Do we talk about the kidney, talk about inflammation, talk about how
the by-products of a high protein diet can cause this blockage?
The kidneys are only 4-5 inches long, weighing approximately 6 ounces. Unbelievable
based on their size, based on their weight, what they do and their importance.
It can only be called a miracle, and we have two of them!
The kidneys are the body's filtering system. According to "World Medicine"
by Tom Monte as quoted, "they identify everything that is in the blood
and then decide what to do with it". That simple; everything that circulates
through our blood is recognized, separated into what is needed and what is not.
The kidneys operate continually, flawlessly and in perfect harmony-there are
no mistakes. In Matt's case, what would cause them to swell? Based on the expert
opinion of the urologist as quoted, "no known cause". Matt's dietary
choices were never an issue.
According to "World Medicine" as quoted, "the primary waste products
that the kidneys filter are those resulting from protein metabolism, such as
nitrogen and ammonia". The fact that Matt was on a high protein diet, the
fact that Matt took protein supplements, the fact that Matt ate maybe too many
protein bars, perhaps made Matt's kidneys a little over protective. In defining
inflammation by Dr. Herbert Shelton as quoted, " a local response to toxemia
on a cellular level characterized by capillary dilation, leukocytic infiltration
and or pain as a mechanism to start the elimination of the noxious agents".
At this point I don't claim to be a doctor but Matt was in seriously bad shape.
His primary urologist's consensus was for removal of the kidney. Matt, his wife,
and his family were searching for a better way. Maybe a 2nd opinion, maybe God,
maybe the internal wisdom that allows us as human beings to exist. Matt chose
the 2nd opinion. This time a top notch specialist from a major hospital in Philly;
the same opinion, the same option. All the tests, the CAT scan, the renal scan
that determines flow and function can't be wrong, or could they? Does the responsibility
of who we are make us responsible for ourselves? Does Matt who is crazed beyond
belief allow the medical field to remove his kidney?
Besides removing the waste products, this little 5-inch dynamo also regulates
electrolyte balance as quoted in "World Medicine", (I love that book)
"retaining those minerals that the body needs". The kidney also converts
vitamin "D" into a usable state. Should I go on? It also controls
our blood pressure. Matt was beginning to realize all this. He studied, he prayed
to God, somehow, someone, looking for the right answer-he had 5 weeks. The clock
was ticking but Matt's frantic search came to an end. What had happened by chance
became his answer. The fact that the bad kidney was only working according to
all medical procedures at 21% made no difference. The fact that two urologists
after careful exam, extensive testing gave Matt no hope made no difference.
Matt called upon a higher source. His answer had come; what to do, what to eat,
how to be. As what started as a tiny little incident became major insight to
Matt and the possibilities.
For whatever reason, Matt placed a "For Sale" ad in the local newspaper.
For whatever reason, as these entire test results came crashing into Matt's
supposedly safe world, his thoughts turned to juicing. He went into his basement
and saw a champion juicer that had been sitting there for years. What does one
have to do with the other? What does picking up the local newspaper; checking
for your ad and seeing the front page of a man using a champion juicer have
to do with each other? To some people nothing-but not to Matt. This was, in
his opinion, an act of divine intervention. He read the article about me, Arnold,
about my store, Arnold's Way, about my wife, who when diagnosed with fibroid
tumors all over her body, about her having a mild mini-stroke. Her choice of
treatment became lifestyle changes, focusing on switching from a mostly cooked
food to mostly raw food diet. Matt read the article and saw the results in the
picture. He came to the store and presto, like a dark magic bullet did not get
it! Surprise! Matt was not fully convinced. He saw the correlation of disease
and diet choice, he did his research, and he heard the words of God banging
into his saneness. In spite of all these realities, there were the other realities
of the impending operation. Matt looked, Matt thought, and the words of you
have nothing to lose by changing your diet came roaring into his consciousness.
Like white knights that beg for mercy or flames of untold fortune, Matt's decision
of what to do became very simple. After leaving Arnold's Way, after much deliberating
thought, Matt went on a mostly raw diet and decided to do just that for four
weeks. As soon as these thought processes became clear, all desire for cooked
food vanished. Matt had no desire to eat the chicken, the spaghetti, and the
steak. Nada. His internal wisdom became his internal doctor. His request for
God became his heartbeat of joy and life. His breath ran strong as a guiding
missile seeking a better way, a healthier way and a way to restore without internal
intervention.
The days began to unfold, salad was king and juicing became like hot wings with
every sip. Matt felt the difference immediately. As quoted, "right away,
more energy, more alert". By the third week the bulge in Matt's stomach
that became his major concern was no longer. What did this mean to Matt? What
does this mean to the millions of people who are diagnosed with the same prognosis
of no hope other than removal? Quite clearly, it meant victory! To say that
Matt was overjoyed was an understatement. To say that Matt's strong belief in
God became stronger would also be an understatement. To say Matt had to reevaluate
his medical condition with only two weeks before surgery, before his kidney
removal, was also true. Matt requested another CAT scan with his local urologist.
These tests are not cheap, the test, if one could believe the words of God,
if such a possibility exists, are miniscule to the making of our existence.
Nevertheless, the test indicated that the kidney inflammation was reduced from
17-1/2 cm to 10 cm. The kidney that was almost stagnant, almost non-functioning
was for some unknown reason actually working, doing all these unbelievable tasks
that it normally does. The primary urologist who recommended the operation was
taken back! The urologist from his standpoint could not medically accept the
fact of the turnaround. In his understanding diet plays no significant role
on kidney failure. In his opinion the once imminent removal of his kidney may
not be necessary. He told Matt that if he still wanted his kidney removed he
would perform the operation.
Matt left the urologist office totally disappointed. There was an inkling of
hope that the other urologist from the big city hospital would find these results
miraculous. In his mind the medical profession should do no harm and always
work for the patient's benefit. These were the facts; this is what TV is all
about. We as a benefactor of TV influence are addicted to the fact that knowledge,
wisdom, and years of education and experience are taught, not imbedded in the
sanctity of our human cells. The simple fact is that a man or woman who goes
8 years to medical school should know way beyond our internal intelligence of
what healing is and what proper medications are needed in order for this to
occur.
Matt sought out the second urologist with pride, with glory, with victory, as
a conquering war hero. Little did he know that the urologist did not want to
hear the healing possibilities of food, the healing possibilities of Matt's
belief in God. Nor did he want to hear the destructiveness and consequence of
what can happen when eating a high protein diet. The expert urologist hearing
Matt's results, seeing the second CAT scan was also taken back, not by the results,
not by reduced swelling, but of the audacity in trying an alternative option!
With all his schooling, with all his experience, the fact that the kidney was
returning to its original size, its original function was only a slight aberration.
These things just don't happen, and by changing one's diet certainly will not
cause these changes. He offered Matt further invasive tests, further evaluation,
and further medical diagnosis. Matt felt betrayed realizing the medical practice
was not open to hearing an alternative possibility for healing. Matt politely
said, no thank you and quietly walked away. That was the story as I heard it,
as I wrote it, as I relayed it to you, the reader.
In summary, Matt did not have to choose an alternative approach but he did.
Matt did not have to go then and still continue on a mostly raw diet, but he
did and is. I feel honored to be a part of Matt's story.
Thank you for your time,
Arnold

From Rhio: I spoke with Matt today (2/7/03) on the telephone. His story is powerful
in many ways. He and his family were praying to God for his safety in the impending
operation and/or for some alternative solution. Matt does not believe it was
a coincidence that brought his attention to the story of Arnold and his wife
in the paper that fateful day.
After Matt's improvement and subsequent visits to the doctors, he was shocked
and disappointed to realize that they had little interest in finding out how
his diet changes had impacted his condition. The two doctor's reactions show
clearly that many of our medical men and women do not want to let the light
of truth shine into their consciousness. They have been so indoctrinated by
the medical paradigm that any "facts" that interfere with their "absolute
knowledge" are not even looked at or evaluated. Some of them become defensive,
as Matt experienced with his second doctor.
NEXT ITEM: I have another story to tell. This
one happened to Leigh and me and a friend of a relative. It is interesting because
it shows that where people are praying - insight, information and solutions
are offered as answers to prayer, but it is still up to the recipient to let
the information in.
One day I got a call from a relative who said that a friend of hers had been
diagnosed with cancer of the tongue. The doctors wanted to do an experimental
operation on him, take out his tongue, reconstruct a tongue of sorts from other
parts of his body - and all at no charge. He was 27 years old. My relative asked
if I would send a copy of my book manuscript (this was before it was published)
and other information to her friend (I'll call him M), including information
on the Optimum Health Institute of San Diego which was about 2 hours from M's
home in LA. On Sundays the Optimum Health Institute, at nominal cost, provides
an open house, dinner and video and live presentation explaining the premise
of the Raw/Live Food Diet and Lifestyle. Last time I checked it cost something
like $5. Here M would have been able to learn all about raw and living foods
as an alternative option.
So I sent all the information out.
Then something very unusual happened. Leigh, my companion, was walking down
the street in our neighborhood and on a loading dock he saw a Champion Juicer
with all the attachments next to it - just sitting there with no one around.
At first Leigh walked by it, then he did a double take and walked past again.
Then he decided to sit next to the Champion while thinking what to do. After
1/2 hour, when no one showed up, he picked up the juicer and brought it home.
He thought, "Rhio will know what to do with it."
When he came up the stairs, he said "Rhio, you'll never guess what I found!"
I said, "No, What? Really? Let's see if it works." It worked beautifully.
I thought, "This juicer has been sent from the universe for M in California."
So we sent it off to M.
I wish I could tell you a wonderful ending to this story. I wish I could say
that M gave Nature's Way a chance and fully recovered. Instead I have to report
that the doctors were successful in convincing M that his only option was to
take their experimental surgery. Of course he would never be able to taste any
food ever again. Of course, no enzymes could be secreted from the artificially
reconstructed tongue. Of course his physiology would never have a chance to
go back to normal functioning. Within months M was dead. The prayer had been
answered but the recipient was not ready.
NEXT ITEM: In the Sept.
02 hotline I told you about Dr. Rebecca Carley, a medical doctor in New
York being investigated by the Office of Professional Medical Conduct (OPMC).
Dr. Carley has been successfully reversing many of the symptoms of autism using
nutrition, homeopathy, bovine colostrum and other alternative protocols.
For many months now Dr. Carley has been under investigation and repeatedly interrogated
by a panel of three judges who will now decide her professional fate on February
18th. Will they allow her to keep her physician's license? Judging from the
history of other courageous doctors who have broken out of the mold of conventional
medical thinking - NO. But Dr. Carley is still confident. What can we do now
to help Dr. Carley? Please take a few minutes of your time to either make a
phone call, or send an email or letter to Governor Pataki.

Below** is a letter by Arnold Gore - an activist in behalf of the people's right
to alternative forms of medical treatment. You could take pointers from his
letter or write your own. At the very least, PLEASE, call Governor Pataki's
office at and let them know what you think - (212) 687-3580.
It doesn't matter if you are not from New York State, this problem of intentional
harrassment and suppression of doctors who provide alternative therapies for
their patients is happening all over the country. They take a few doctors and
destroy their lives and careers as a warning to other would-be courageous doctors
to tow the line in accordance with allopathic medicine's designated protocols.
In New York State, two other doctors that I am aware of, are no longer allowed
to practice, Dr. Jennifer Daniels and Dr. Corselo.
Why is this such an important matter for all of us?
Humans are only human and sometimes we don't take care of ourselves according
to Nature's guidelines. We slack off, we put off, we go on and off. We
have any number of "good" reasons for not taking proper care of ourselves,
but sooner or later it catches up to us. Those that have not made the commitment
yet to be responsible for their own well-being may get themselves into trouble.
At that point they need to turn to a doctor and they need to be able to get
information from all possible sources so that they can better decide what to
do. People must have access to alternative views, information and treatments
from medical doctors who have diverged from the accepted protocols, and ventured
back into Nature's Realm.
A friend of mine (we'll call her J) recently got herself into trouble. She was
very scared, confused and intimidated by the doctors prognosis and allowed herself
to be talked into having 1/2 of her thyroid removed. After that, her condition
only worsened until the doctors were now wanting to take the other half but
she balked and started looking around for an alternative doctor to help her.
Now this is a person who knows all about raw/live foods, and has been on and
off them for years. In her current situation, she needed expert guidance, help,
support and reassurance. She needed a caring doctor. She could not do it on
her own.
Another friend of mine told J about Dr. Baez, a Naturopathic Doctor, who is
having great success with his patients. How do I know? Because Dr. Baez sends
some of his patients to me to learn how to prepare raw food and they tell me
their incredible stories. Anyway, J found out about Dr. Baez and she immediately
wanted to go to him but he had a one year waiting list at the time. I interceded
in her behalf and he saw her within a few days.
With great trepidation but increasing confidence (Dr. Baez spent three hours
with J on the first visit), J decided to cancel the second operation and follow
Dr. Baez' protocols.
Now, let me backtrack. Before all this happened, Victoria Boutenko, author of
The Raw Family, came to New York to do a seminar entitled "12 Steps
to Raw Food", a program that helps people stay on raw foods. At her seminar,
I did a one hour presentation on GE foods. I was 3/4 of the way into my talk
when my eye went to the name tag of a person I didn't recognize who was sitting
almost directly in front of me, three rows back. I was shocked to discover it
was my friend J. I fought back instant tears to continue my lecture. Afterwards
I greeted her warmly. I began to pray for J. Later the two friends talked and
that's when Dr. Baez' name came up.
Approximately three months later, I had the pleasure of seeing J again. She
had followed Dr. Baez' program, lost a lot of weight but BEST OF ALL, I recognized
my friend again. She was beautiful as ever, feeling better, and on the road
to recovery.

February 3, 2003
Governor George Pataki
Executive Chamber
Albany, NY
Dear Governor Pataki:
The actions of your Office of Professional Medical Conduct (OPMC) have been
unfairly using their unusual control over procedural admission of evidence to
distort the meaning and intent of the Alternative Medical Practice Act of 1994.
Most recently they have abused psychiatry to charge Dr.Rebecca Carley, MD with
practicing while impaired by a psychological problem. We used to think this
kind of behavior was confined to totalitarian states in far away countries.
I and many others fear that a simple message is being sent to all doctors who
think about deviating from the conventional medical orthodoxy that even if they
have clean records in their medical practice, OPMC can get them on highly subjective
"psychological bases." Any doctor, who has the temerity to question
the efficacy of established treatments, usually must have a thought process
that explores beyond the surface and thinks their own conclusions are more valid
than those of the most prestigious top authorities in the field. An opening
for innovation must be encouraged, especially in a case where no harm was done
to any patient.
Dr. Carley is the only doctor I know of who reverses the injuries from vaccination
that have been reported much more frequently than expected. After speaking to
patients and parents of young patients I have been told of the satisfactory
results.
Unfortunately the Administrative Law Judge Dennis T. Bernstein did not allow
any testimony to be entered into the official record by me regarding my contact
with patients. At a time when National Policy is relying heavily on vaccines
with acknowledged severe adverse reactions, it is a disgrace that OPMC will
not even allow in its official record the vital benefit of this doctor's unconventional
detoxification procedure using homeopathic remedies, bovine colostrum and other
nutritional supplements.
Sadly this is not the only case of prominent alternative medical doctors who
have been prosecuted without any complaints of patient harm. Dr. Jennifer Daniels
has been suspended for almost 2 years because she will not allow an unlimited
search of her medical records by an agency that has repeatedly distorted and
limited physician's rights to fully explain the excerpts from the patient records.
Dr.Daniels treated a patient for diabetes using only diet and exercise. Even
though Secretary Tommy Thompson of HHS held a large press conference to announce
the publication of a large study showing diet and exercise to be more effective
than drug therapy in August 2001, the doctor's license remained suspended. At
the conference he said "we have to get this word out to all those doctors."
He should have said to all those Medical Boards. Dr.Daniels received your "Woman
of Distinction" award in 1998. Dr.Serafina Corsello had her license revoked
because her attorney filed the answer after the due date. Dr.Corsello is a distinguished
author and was one of the founding members of the first advisory panel to the
Federal Office of Alternative Medicine in 1992.
Please exercise your administrative authority to see that OPMC does not limit
the availability of alternative doctors by sending these hostile signals to
doctors impressed with the efficacy of more natural therapies.
Sincerely,
Arnold Gore
NEXT ITEM: And while we're on the topic of
doctors this month, below is a letter to the American Association of Retired
Persons (AARP) from Dr. Lorraine Day - a medical doctor who healed her own life-threatening,
advanced breast cancer tumor using natural and alternative therapies. See www.drday.com
AARP Attacks Dr. Day in their Scam Alert column as a "quack doctor"
January 2003 issue of the AARP Bulletin.

Lorraine Day, M.D. P.O. Box 8 Thousand Palms, CA 92276

January 14, 2003
To: Elliot Carlson, Editor AARP
Carole Fleck, author of Scam Alert Column
P.O. Box 199
Long Beach, CA 90801
Dear Mr. Carlson and Ms. Fleck:
I want to thank you for mentioning me in your column "Scam Alert"
in the January 2003 issue of the AARP Bulletin, page 18. Obviously my message
of Natural Healing is having a major impact throughout the country if an organization
the size of AARP, 30 million members, feels the need to attack me. Yes, I am
an orthodox medical doctor who was for 15 years on the faculty of the University
of California, San Francisco, School of Medicine, considered to be one of the
three top medical schools in the country. As Associate Professor and Vice Chairman
of the Department of Orthopedic Surgery, I trained thousands of doctors. In
addition, as Chief of Orthopedic Surgery at San Francisco General Hospital,
one of the premier trauma hospitals in the country, I ran the equivalent of
a M.A.S.H. unit for many years.
For the past 20-25 years, I have been invited to lecture to doctors at numerous
University medical schools including Vanderbilt, Baylor, Cincinnati, Tufts,
South Carolina, Iowa, USC, Minnesota and countless medical societies throughout
the U.S. including the Massachusetts Medical Society, as well as other medical
organizations around the world, including the Royal Society of Medicine in London.
How surprised they will be to find out that the very doctor, Dr. Lorraine Day,
these highly distinguished medical groups invited as a guest speaker, you, the
editors of AARP, have designated as a quack. How could I, overnight, go from
a highly respected surgeon at top of my field, to an AARP-designated quack?
What was my "crime?" Answer: I had the audacity to successfully reverse
my severe, life-threatening cancer WITHOUT DRUGS! According to your business
partners, the pharmaceutical companies, this is the GREATEST crime of all!
Yes, I did reverse my life-threatening, end-stage cancer by totally natural
methods. (You can see the pictures of the huge tumor I had, as well as my biopsy
reports at my web site (www.drday.com) Yes, I did refuse chemotherapy, radiation
and mutilating surgery because, as a medical doctor with years of experience,
I saw thousands of cancer patients die, NOT from their cancer, but from the
painful, maiming, destructive treatments we doctors give them. And Yes, I am
TOTALLY WELL and Cancer-FREE a full 10 years after my tumor first appeared,
and EVERYTHING I used to get well is totally free, except for food, and almost
everyone has to buy that anyway.
But I understand your need to attack me and my reputation. Certainly you don't
want your membership to learn how to get well from Cancer, Heart Disease, Parkinson's,
Lupus, Arthritis, Diabetes and many, many other diseases by natural methods,
without drugs of any kind. After all, one of the main functions of AARP, according
to your own advertising, is to sell drug medications to your members. Let's
see, with 30 million members (all over 55) and each one spending maybe $100.00
per month with AARP for their medication (a conservative estimate), that amounts
to $3 BILLION in drug sales per month. If your organization gets a cut of just
10% of that total, that's 300 MILLION per month for you! If your cut is only
1%, that's still $30 MILLION per month you are receiving, a minimum of $360
MILLION per year! When you have a multi-million dollar arrangement with the
drug companies as you do, my message of inexpensive natural methods of healing,
with NO adverse side effects, could really cut into a truly phenomenal income
such as you are receiving. It's easy to see why you would choose to attack me.
One more thing, in your column you referred to natural healing as quackery,
yet on the back page of your very same AARP Bulletin, January 2003, you promote
a Yearbook" with an advertising headline stating"Ordinary Ailments,
Extraordinary Cures -- Health Breakthroughs and Remarkable Remedies." In
that advertisement are listed SIX or SEVEN points of the TEN Step Natural Health
Plan I used to reverse my end-stage cancer! Why is it "quackery" when
I promote it, but it's NOT "quackery" when YOU promote it? (see ad
in AARP bulletin)
Even MORE interesting is the fact that you CHANGED the headline for the advertisement
when it was published in your Bulletin. Here is the SAME ad found in another
paper. The heading is very different. It includes the words: "Remedies
That Work Better Than Dangerous Drugs Or Risky Surgery." Your AARP Bulletin
obviously required that the ad be changed to eliminate these important words
- to protect your enormous payoff from your drug business. You have deliberately
withheld potentially life-saving information from your membership for your own
monetary gain. In the interest of fairness, I'm sure you will be more than happy
to print this letter in a prominent spot in your up-coming February AARP Bulletin.
I give you permission, but ONLY if it is printed in its entirety. You do not
have my permission to cut and paste portions to suit your own agenda. Just in
case an outside chance you are NOT interested in fairness, I will post this
letter on my own web site at www.drday.com as well as other web sites, as the
public does have the right to hear both sides.
Again, thank you for mentioning me. I could never afford to buy publicity like
this to an organization the size of AARP, and here you have provided it for
me free of charge. You have probably forgotten, or at least have not considered
the fact that there are millions of intelligent and discerning members in your
organization who will be perceptive enough to search me out, to find out how
they too can get well without the torturing pain, surgical disfigurement, and
bankrupting expense of orthodox methods. Thanks for letting them know I'm here!
They may not have found me otherwise.
Sincerely,
Lorraine Day, M.D.
Until next time,
Be Blessed, Be Happy, Be Healthy, Be In Peace
