Beloved,

I know my newsletter is later than usual. Have you ever had an AHA moment which kind of
leaves you in another time zone for a while? That is what I feel happened to me. I had a series of events yesterday and today which has caused me to get this out later than usual.

Yesterday I went to a doctor’s appointment with a knee replacement surgeon. My knee was injured 11 years ago and believe it or not, yesterday marked exactly 11 years since I had
arthroscopic surgery for a torn ligament in my left knee. I was left with a lot of pain and could barely walk so they scheduled me for a knee replacement. Spirit stepped in and I found out
about John of God in Brazil so I made the trip there and was healed enough so I could walk without as much pain. In my heart I know that I not able to surrender enough or believe that I was worthy enough for a full healing but I was so grateful for what I received.

I canceled the knee replacement surgery when I got back because I believed that I would heal more in due time. I do believe in miracles and know that our bodies can heal themselves if we
just love ourselves enough. Do not our skin cells replenish themselves? Our hail and nail cells? Even our liver grows back if we donate part of it. In fact, all of our cells are replaced in a 7 year period as our body was created to renew itself but our foods, habits and exercise prevent a lot of it from happening the way our bodies were designed to. I know and believe that in my heart and soul and yet my mind keeps hearing all the commercials about pharmaceuticals that have
brainwashed me. So my mind and heart are fighting each other.

I went along with the restriction and the pain as I kept hoping the medical profession would come up with a better way to fix my knee than to saw it in half. I was in fear of the unknown and not wise enough to go to the expert who would have been able to ease them. Perhaps that is how it was done 11 years ago because I must have received that impression somewhere I am able to go shopping but I have pain whenever I walk and cannot GO for a walk as it is too painful. I have passed up many opportunities to be with people or go on trips or even attend functions where there is any walking involved. Please don’t do what I did, face that fear and get the information that will set you free at least mentally and emotionally and most likely physically.

I am finally finished with being in pain and in a prison of my own making. Sooooo, I made an
appointment with a surgeon at the suggestion of an acquaintance who does yoga where I do and has had two knee replacements and still is able to do yoga. All the other people who had knee
replacements have not come back to yoga so I knew this must be a very special doctor.

I went to him with a long list of questions which he graciously answered with much patience. While we were talking I mentioned how scared I was of him cutting my leg in two places and
putting an artificial knee in between. He explained that they do not cut your leg in two places and proceeded to show me a before and after Xray of one of his patients and told me that they do cut some of the bone and shave some of the bone but the picture showed that the knee
is kind of just capped on both sides. I let out such a breath of air that it startled him. I must have been holding my breath and when I saw the reality of the surgery compared to what I had envisioned in my mind, it was like night and day. That AHA moment just took me to another
zone and I am slowly coming back to this reality.

I am glad that I realized that close to the end of the appointment because my mind was having
a hard time being there, it was that much of a shock. How many decisions do we make on
facts that are not accurate, that we just “believe” to be true? I raise my hand on doing that.
I am reminded of a TV show or maybe it was a radio show when this man would always say:
“Just the facts, ma’am! just the facts!”.

It’s not that I have not ever seen the advertisements for an artificial knee or any literature on it but in my mind, I believed that my whole knee was going to be removed. I was talking to my son today and he said he believed just like I did until he saw a program on TV that showed him
the surgery. Then I did not feel so gullible to have believed that inaccuracy. I was called today with the date of December 3, 2013 for the surgery. This is another opportunity for me to practice my mantra from the Great blue Heron given to me last week of: “Go forward. Allow and Trust?”

In fact, another meaning of the Heron from the Animal Speak is: Legs enable animals and people to move about on the earth. They are symbols of balance, and they represent an ability to progress and evolve. The long thin legs of the heron reflect that you don’t need great massive pillars to remain stable, but you must be able to stand on your own. Wow, isn’t that a great message for what is occurring in my life right now. Don’t forget to look for and appreciate the messages that you are receiving from the animals or any other form of communication from Spirit and your own Higher Self.

I still believe in miracles and I still believe that our bodies can regenerate themselves but perhaps it will not be proven in my lifetime. With stem cells (which come from our own bodies) they are
creating miracles, someday we will look back on this time and feel that we were in a caveman’s time. Isn’t life exciting, there is always something new and I marvel at man’s ingenuity and inventiveness which of course comes from Spirit and Spirit’s guidance.

Guidance comes in many forms when we believe. Humans are vessels for God’s miracles.
