I AM NOT DONE LAUGHING
I AM NOT DONE LAUGHING
I am still here after managing my cancer for five years. There is a purpose, something that I has grown as my passion. I am not done smiling or laughing for I have a lot of work ahead of me. What I know now has made me a better person and wiser ~ KNOWLEDGE IS POWER. This statement is so true because this is what has pulled me through and healed me. Perhaps, if I listened to my surgeon five years ago, “IT IS WHAT IT IS” I might not be writing this piece.
Almost a month ago I started a petition http://www.thepetitionsite.com/552/608/740/stand-up-to-cancer/, which is so dear to me, for this is the type of treatment that turned my live around without side effects. I am tired of seeing and hearing sad stories of how one suffers and all the side effects that go into chemo and radiation. We need to open our eyes and minds to see that there are other options out there in this wide world of ours. With the modern equipment such as the internet we can see beyond our little corner.
Let’s change the way we treat people, lets not use Russian Roulette and forget that we all have a choice on our quality of life and stand up to our government and have insurance companies pay for other options other than surgery, chemo or radiation.
I have written a book http://121586.wix.com/-myjourney. The purpose ~ I wanted people to learn that in order to cure cancer one has to change their lifestyle. The first step is prevention and finding the core of how it happened in the first place. The book is an easy read and provides a lot of information, please check it out.
To expand the KNOWLEDGE I have also created a web site with treatments that provide options on how to treat and manage cancer without surgery, chemo and radiation. http://www.thejourneytogoodhealth.com/ it’s a Scientific Approach which creates personalized programs that are customized for each patient, helping them to fight their cancer their way. Because everyone’s blueprint is different.
So you see I am not done living my life and I will be smiling and laughing. This is what I would like for all cancer patients ~ not just a few. Please stand with me and change the thinking toward cancer and let every cancer patient have a option toward a quality of live.

TRIP TO ZAMORA CITY
TRIP TO ZAMORA CITY
Last Friday Dan and I took a tour to the city of Zamora where our first stop was the Cathedral and then some R & R time where we went to Camecuaro Lake.
Zamora de Hidalgo, is a city in the Mexican state of Michoacán. The 2010 census population was 141,627. making it the third largest city in the state. The city is the municipal seat of Zamora Municipality, which has an area of 330.97 km² (127.79 sq mi) and includes many other smaller communities, the largest of which is Ario de Rayón (Ario Santa Mónica). The municipality's population is around 186,102, which makes it the second most populous urban area in the state.
The city of Zamora is an important economic center in the state and the most significant population center between the cities of Morelia and Guadalajara. The city is located on the Tarascan Plateau in the northwestern part of the state, at an elevation of 1,567 m (5,141 ft) above sea level. Zamora is surrounded by the fertile Tziróndaro Valley which is an important agricultural area that exports large amounts of produce to the United States.
The Cathedral of Our Lady of Guadalupe is a gothic revival Catholic cathedral located in Zamora, Michoacán, Mexico
The cornerstone of the cathedral was laid on February 2, 1898, the feast
of Candlemas, by the second bishop of Zamora, Don Jose Ma. Càzares y Martinez. The architectural plan is attributed
to the Zamoran architect Jesús Hernández Segura. The diocese had been established in 1862 and needed a cathedral.
Beginning
The
construction started in 1898, with a crew of more than 300 men working on the
site. It was designed in the neogothic, or gothic revival style with an unusual twist, a dome over the crossing. The cathedral would contain 5
extensive naves, 4 of which had been roofed over by the end of 1910;
vast amounts of quarry stone were required in order to accelerate the work.
The Mexican Revolution brought problems to Zamora, and to the country as a whole. In 1914 the work of construction was suspended due to the revolution and later, the Cristero War, for an indefinite time.
During the intervening years, only half of the cathedral was complete, including 4 of the naves, and all the pillars were in place. Unfortunately, due to the continuing conflict, the original drafts were lost; all that remained were a drawing of the original facade and a general plan of construction. Also, much of the original quarry stone disappeared, and the cathedral was damaged when the army decided to use one of the stone walls as a place of execution; many died by firing squad for their faith. The evidence still exists in the form of hundreds of bullet holes etched in the wall; a silent memorial to those who died there.
After many fits
and starts, in 1988 His Excellency Josè E. Jiménez Robles, eighth bishop of Zamora, was able to
plan for restarting construction and in 1989, it was decided to dedicate the
building to Our Lady of
Guadalupe. Its
completion seemed almost impossible to him; the lack of economic resources and
the time needed to complete the project being the most daunting tasks. He only
knew that he and the faithful were up against a difficult but noble task.
The work of
reconstruction began in 1990, with a new facade instead of what was originally
planned, and bearing a resemblance to the gothic cathedral in Milan, Italy. A spire was placed at the crossing instead of the planned dome, this
being an element more in keeping with pure gothic architecture. The walls were
cleaned of debris then cracks were repaired and the walls reinforced. The
towers were redesigned to make them more spacious and the patio was paved in
order to lend greater stability to the building.
At the moment, construction is on the verge of completion and last details are being finished. The organ, by Alexander Schuke Orgelbau of Potsdam, Germany, is complete and was installed early in 2009. With the newly installed spires, the towers now reach a height of 105 meters. The inner illumination is completely finished and in niches on the pillars, images of the saints have been placed, with plaques with their respective names underneath
On to the lake we go for some relaxed R & R time. The Park consists of 9.65 hectares (23.8 acres) of protected area including Camécuaro Lake which is supplied by a series of natural springs. The lake is popular due to crystal clear water and the beautiful vegetation that surrounds the lake. Even though the lake is relatively small, many photographers from all over Mexico come to take professional photographs that capture the parks picturesque views.
Over all the trip was fabulous. Just riding along the roads of Mexico gives you another outlook of life and the history that took place here.

The crucifixion of Jesus
The crucifixion of Jesus
This occurred during
the 1st century AD, most
probably between the years 30 and 33. According to the accounts in the New Testament,
Jesus,
whom Christians
believe to be the Son of God as well as the Messiah,
was arrested, tried, and sentenced by
Pontius Pilate to be scourged, and finally crucified.
Collectively referred to as the Passion, Jesus' suffering and redemptive
death by crucifixion are the central aspects of Christian theology concerning the doctrines of salvation and atonement.
Good Friday the Passion of Jesus in Ajijic
In many
towns and villages the trial and crucifixion of Jesus Christ is remembered
through a passion play, or a recreation of the Via Crucis, (the Way of the
Cross) on Viernes Santo -- Holy Friday. This may be an all-day event involving
a cast of hundreds of amateur performers playing key roles in the Biblical story
that reaches its climax with a simulated crucifixion. In other places there may
be some type of solemn procession in which most of the populace participates as
penitents. In addition, the Virgin Mary´s pain and suffering at the loss of her
son may be recalled with the display of an Altar de Dolores--an Altar of
Sorrows.
Dan and I
went to this Friday and were surprised to feel like a part of the reenactment. It’s amazing dedication that was put into the
play. It brought tears to my eyes seeing
the suffering that occurred during the 1 century AD. I learned this as a child, but as a Catholic
it never dawned on me the sacrifice until you are involved in the actions of
what happened back during that time.
We were so
involved that we walked along with the person that represented Jesus and saw
the sorrow in his eyes, the pain that he endured. Through my pictures and the movie clips, I
hope you can capture what I saw and appreciate the Christian theology
concerning the doctrines of salvation.
