Jeff's Story
Life seems to STOP, when you here the word Cancer and then a family members name.
When we got the word of my brother-in-law's diagnosis we where, as would most people, completely ahw struck. Then the process of learning what he was fighting, and then what we could do to help him and his family. Will, as most people who where close knew him by, was one of those souls that became a good friend the moment you shook his hand. And this character trait showed when you started to see all those who came to help with the house, meals, and tons of incidentals, to assist the entire Lewis family. This out pouring of help showed me the good in people. This greatly helped Will and his whole family in their quest to get through the ordeal. This is when I discovered the importance of supplementation. In Will's struggle he was the ever giving and caring person not wanting to be a burden or a problem till the day the almighty called.
If I learned anything in his battle it was how to be a good person, and to take care of yourself, because that is what will carry on way past the day you get called. I lost a true friend back then, but his memory is never far from thought.
Then, on Oct 10th 2005, I discovered what felt like a lump on Marianne's rib under her right arm. Now Marianne at the time worked as a medical secretary for a Cancer Center. Needless to say the WHAT IF'S, for the entire weekend set in. On Monday morning she consulted the head Doctor of the Cancer Center, who immediately sent her to get a MRI. To make a long story short, it was Breast Cancer. Now all those stories of Will (Charles Lewis) came to be my stories. I saw the good nature of fellow workers, neighbors, church, people we didn't even know come help us in our time of need.
When you see someone you love lying on a table getting radioactive injections that light up their entire blood stream and the injections are discomforting just so they can analyze area's of concern more thoroughly. All the stuff in life ceases to exist. All the stuff you worry about, the times you got mad becaus...Expand for more
e your neighbor who didn't mow his grass often enough, your children didn't clean their room again, all those little things, because that is exactly what they are **** little ****. Life is too short to focus on what others are not doing, but one should always look at what good people ARE doing. And better yet on what you -- yourself -- are doing.
So now we have every day to we wake up and enjoy and cherish, and we live day to day.
The reason I say day to day, because we truly do not know what tomorrow brings, so live tomorrow today.
What I learned back during Will's battle was that 98% of all disease can be traced back to a mineral deficiency.
I tell you this because I do not want what we have endure, and to give you the information to look forward.
I LOOKED for an affordable and body friendly source and found Newvision. Their are many sources and more every day coming to the table, what I found with Newvision was a good solid track record and established debt free company. Back then I saw the need for supplementation for me and my family because you can not get your daily need through the foods we eat in today's fast paced life styles that most people and my children and my wife and I live. Then Newvision developed a subsidiary company taking it's #1 and #2 sellers and combining them to form a new product called Vemma.
This is when I saw the possibility to help others so they can help their selves with nutrition, and if they choose their finances. I see this business as both, to help my family both physically and financially and I'm putting the information out their for those who see this as I do!
I Hope you JOIN me in getting the word out and helping as many people as we possibly can! For I wish no one to experience a Family members name followed by the word Cancer!
God Bless you and yours,
Jeff
