CELEBRATING MY ANNIVERSARY
What a fabulous place to celebrate our thirty third anniversary in Chapala and Ajijic Mexico. Went to a train exhibit and then to a French restaurant for dinner. You ask ~ HOW SAFE IS MEXICO.
We have been living in this area for going on three years and the crime rate and death rate is much lesser then some states in United States.

Mexico is safer than many cities in the U.S.
More than 150,000 Americans safely visit Mexico every day. And while the media sensationalizes stories of violence in Mexico, Mexico is safer than many major U.S. cities. Travelers feel relatively safe visiting popular U.S. cities like Miami, Philadelphia, Chicago, New Orleans, Washington D.C, or Atlanta. Visitors from around the world enjoy these vibrant cities in relative, reasonable safety. Yet each of these cities is statistically less safe than Mexico

DAN AND MY ADENTURES WHILE MANAGING CANCER
DAN AND MY ADVENTURES WHILE MANAGING
CANCER
The shock of
cancer came into our lives as early as December 2010. It was the unthinkable, but Dan and I were
not going to take this lightly. We
started to research and came across this program that was directed from all
over the world. The program was in
Mexico. So
we went for it, this meant no surgery, chemo nor radiation, but it meant going
to another country. I did not even speak
Spanish!! But that did not matter, just
knowing that I would not have to go through chemo ~ I was good.
As I look
back and look over the video’s that I took, I realize how lucky we are, for
both of us went through this treatment and are cancer free at this time. I have learned how to manage cancer while
enjoying life.
I have so
much to be thankful for, while being on this ride, we have been enjoying the
company of our friends. From Washington
to California ~ New York to the Carolina’s ~ even Maine. I would like to thank all for sharing this
time with us. I have reflected this time
through movies and sharing with the world that we can have a change of lifestyle
and still be able to enjoy life without side effects and pain.
The best way
to describe what I have learned is Research and that Knowledge is Power.
Through
these video’s that I am sharing I hope this can change the future of cancer and
that others will learn and open their minds to other options that do not have
every lasting side effects.
Through my
change of lifestyle Dan and I moved to Mexico.
So I have created movies of How Safe Is Mexico. I have met fabulous people from all over here
in this area of Mexico ~ Lake Chapala.
Through the movies and my blog, I am hoping to change the thinking of
Mexico being scary to visit. Much like
the states there are good areas and bad.
I will
continue sharing my life and experiences with all.
It’s
impossible, said pride.
It’s risky,
said experience.
It’s
pointless said reason.
Give it a
try, whispered the heart.
You deserve
to follow your heart and choose your own journey, but first we need to explore
the unknown.
Do the
research and you will find that it is not pointless!
Your mind
will grow full of hope and your travels may continue for many years.

LIFE'S CHALLANGES
LIFE’S
CHALLENGES
Another plus is that most all can speak English and
understand what your needs are. I go to
an organic market to buy my food each week, plus there are local shops that
have gluten free products as well. The biggest part of the puzzle are the
prices. We are living on a retirement
income. Our budget includes supplements
to prevent our cancer from coming back plus helping our daughter with her
student loans. Another piece to the puzzle is Dan has ten stents in his heart. Did
you know that the stents really only last up to ten years. We found this out only here in Mexico. Last
year Dan had a checkup with our local physician here in Chapala. His heart had blockages where the previous
stents were. This meant more
money!!! Even if Dan went back to
America and had Medicare to help pay for some of the expense it would cost out
of pocket at least $6,000.00, for it would be an outpatient service. Thank God
for Mexico because we would not be able to survive in the USA and still enjoy
life without the stress of bills.
So, I am saying that Mexico as a whole is safe and is
just beautiful and I would recommend it for a place to visit or such as us, to
live. In the Lake Chapala area there
are hot springs, mountain trails, coffee shops and wonderful restaurants with a
history of fabulous art work. Wherever
you wake up you can see the sunset looking over the lake or town with the birds
and animals all enjoying it by singing.
It’s a blessing each year for cancer has been part of
my awareness for the past five years and will always be part of my world. I do
this by not only keeping a prevention
operation going, but to keep educating others on how we can control the disease
by both the function of prevention and other factors in fighting it. KNOWLEDGE IS POWER and through the past five
years I have been spreading the knowledge that I have learned. My book I wrote is an eye opener on how one
can think outside the box and control cancer without side effects. It’s another option that I believe that our
insurance companies should cover. I know
that most people would rather try another approach besides chemo and radiation
if they did not have to pay for it as a total expense. I know because I have asked others and they
would have tried other options that did not have side effects. In honoring my Aunt I have started a
petition, my first step to control cancer and for others to have the quality of
life I have without going bankrupt and suffering.
Most of my family and friends are tired of hearing
this, but it’s a passion that I have and will be there until there is a change
in the way the business of cancer is being done. My drive is seeing and hearing stories of
thousands of people that are dealing with this illness and all the sadness that
comes out of it. It’s a war that we do
not think about and is not being won, right under our noses. We all talk about the war we are fighting and
how the soldiers are protecting the USA, but where is the protection right in
our home land. We need the money spent
wisely for education and training for the doctors on treating cancer. So today please help me and sign and share
this petition and give hope to not just the American people, but for all
nations to make cancer a past problem and create a better environment for our
children to live in.
