Chronic Lung Disease

Meet Kristo—he suffered from pains in his body, fibromyalgia, three heart attacks, and one stroke, and has been using a sleep apnea device since 2012.

After 25 years of diligently following the medications and surgeries prescribed to him, his long-term doctors informed him in mid-May 2019 that they could no longer do anything for him. By this point, his body had deteriorated significantly.

He could no longer walk well. His vision was only 30% after two failed eye operations. Using two crutches, he could move a maximum of 100 meters before losing balance and falling over due to the pain. He had been suffering from chronic fatigue for at least 30 years, dragging himself through each day.

His wife, his caregiver for many years, juggled her job in childcare with an unpaid "job" as a nurse, driver, cook, cleaning lady, gardener, and chef, leaving her little time in her busy, hectic life.

Kristo was told to get comfortable in a scooter for disabled people and a wheelchair because that was going to be his life going forward. Their world fell apart - until a friend introduced him to our program.

See the new man! Kristo’s journey from chronic fatigue and debilitating pain to renewed vitality is just one example of how our program is helping many people get their lives back holistically, without medications and surgeries.

We are looking to talk to 60 men and women, especially those over 50, who have health problems and are serious about finding a proper solution.

Your insights will help us build a program tailored to your needs. Participants will be rewarded with a 10% discount when the program launches. It provides transformative results, by the way.

When you live with a chronic health condition or disability, especially if you’re a younger looking person, young adult, or an ambulatory wheelchair user, there’s a good chance that you will have been unfortunate enough to have experienced some negative & hurtful comments from people.
There’s the classic comments that people living with Invisible Disabilities will have heard, for example “You don’t look sick.” & “It’s all in your head.”
Then there’s the unfortunate comments that people living with Mental Health conditions such as Depression & Anxiety will have heard, for example “Cheer up.” & “Stop worrying about it.”
And if you’re an Ambulatory Wheelchair User? Wow! The looks alone can be upsetting! I’ve lost count of the number of times I’ve been met by judgemental looks from people when we park our car in a Disabled Parking Space (I am a valid Blue Badge/Disabled Parking Permit holder) because I “don’t look sick/disabled” when I’m sitting in a car. These looks soon change when these people see my wheelchair but by then I’ve already started feeling awkward, embarrassed & like I have done something wrong when all that’s really “wrong” is that I have a neurological disorder which causes debilitating symptoms. It may be a brief moment of prejudice but that is still a brief moment too long in my books. It’s so important that we continue to raise awareness of the various chronic conditions & disabilities because it’s only through making people more aware these issues that change can happen & hopefully people with disabilities & chronic illnesses won’t have to deal with such rude, inappropriate & often upsetting remarks. In the meantime, when we heard comments that are hurtful or prejudice looks, we need to do our best not to let these remarks cause us any further damage or embarrassment – which is something that I definitely still struggle with a lot.
Stay strong, stay Mighty & by the best ‘you’ that you can be!
🧡💙💜💝

When you live with a chronic health condition there’s a good chance that you’ll have heard the phrase “Listen to your body” more than once. Which does sound a lot easier than it actually is because it’s not as easy to get your brain & body to agree!
