You Will Heal, We Have Proof

If you are new to this blog, please see the post link Reflection which will lead you to the start of our journey.

If you're interested in our lifestyle and the food I make for Jake, here is my Facebook Page
Tone Up Your Lifestyle - Feel free to private message me through my page.

Again we just wanted to shout out to my parents for being... and still being so supportive, we love you and couldn't have gone through this without you both!
Jake still has the best skin he feels he has ever had. Not only does he have nice skin, he also has an immune system which is not suppressed, bowels, kidneys, a liver, a heart, and a gut that are now extremely healthy, functional, and not at risk of brewing diseases.

Below are articles worth reading for those who are still trying to find the answer to their worsening eczema. There are more links as you scroll through previous posts.

Acknowledgements

We would like to send our hearts to the people who stuck by us and helped in Jake's healing.

We could not have done it without you x

Doris Were - (my mother) Clinical Nutritionist and father Robert Were

My parents took Jake into their home with open arms; cooked, cleaned, bathed and held Jake 24 hours a day. They gave so much of their time and love to Jake and I. You made all of this possible, and we are truly grateful. Thank-you xxx

Margo Field

When Margo consulted with Jake, Jake was in the worst stage of this process. Margo's loving nature helped Jake to accept the condition he had, and she gave us strategies to deal with this mental and physical pain as a couple.

Dr. Fred Swann

Fred has supported us both unconditionally. I can't even think of the words to thank Fred or explain how amazing he is. We love you Fred.

Dr. John Turner (& Super Team Members)

Coliban Medical Centre - It's hard to find people who genuinely want to help you and support your cause. This team is an exception, and have supported Jake in his rehabilitation with the utmost care and attention.
