Sinusitis Testimonial

At the age of 7 my daughter developed asthma and sinusitis. The years that followed were filled with pain and anguish. We removed the carpet from our home and got rid of stuffed animals. Diana was put on Albuteral, Intal and Prednisone. These drugs, like many others, have horrible side effects. Holidays were spent in hospital rooms. School days were spent at home. She would watch other children play outside from the window. She walked around like a zombie. Years went by and her condition grew more serious. Diana's doses increased. It was as if she did not even have a life. Finally, I asked the doctor, "When is Diana going to stop taking this medicine?" "Never" was his cold response.

I do not blame the doctors. Most just do what they are told. They are not taught to explore permanent cures. Well, you should never tell a mother her only daughter will be sick all of her life. I went on a rampage of research trying alternative methods from all over the world. When I was ready to give in, I tried one more remedy. I was persuaded to try a remedy with bee pollen and Aloe Vera. Diana and I used it half-heartedly. There was an immediate response. Slowly we replaced the "traditional" treatments until she was completely off of them. Natural remedies did not just attack a symptom; they boosted Diana's immune system to fight its own battles. I was never able to look at her run in cross-country running meets. I was so afraid for her. She went from a girl who could not laugh hard for fear of an asthma attack, to a competitive runner with strong lungs. She still hates Christmas time and has trouble talking about her experience. To her, Christmas is a time spent in a hospital room. Diana now has a normal life.
