I understandably receive an ongoing number of questions regarding my recommendation to drink bottled spring water. This typically is in regards to the cost. And, i am not a water expert, only an expert on IC. The difference between Tap or filtered tap in outrageously obvious clinically. There are so many issues that revolve around water and many still far beyond my own understanding. Much more research needs to be conducted in this area. This article interestingly illustrates even more issues than the ones i bring up. Please read it!

so it is no surprise so many disease stem from an imbalance in that part of your body. I know it seems I post redundant information, but "repetition is the mother of learning" so they say. This is a really nice article sent in by an active patient, please read it:  http://www.huffingtonpost.com/dr-mark-hyman/is-your-digestive-system_b_3...

There are so many of you out there extending your hands to help others who need support and giving so much of yourselves, your hearts, and your time. This is my dream-to create a network of angels helping one another. Putting good energy into something creates more good energy and this is such a good and wonderful thing. I am trying to plant my seeds at the moment to fulfill my dream of creating a haven for those in need. A place where people can come and get treatment-to stay for a while. A place where they may be able to get help and support and knowledge.

was really wonderful. I thoroughly enjoyed speaking to all of you. We had a great turn out! There were a few newcomers and I hope they felt warmly welcomed. I believe they did. As I always say, I really enjoy doing these meetings and I hope that everyone else benefits from them. Having support and comfort is very important in this kind of treatment and just in general when you are suffering from a chronic illness.  I look forward to next month's meeting:)
