Lived To Tell The Tale

6/2/2016

3 Comments

 
I was travelling in Portugal, eating what I wanted and not giving a care about my health, let alone even PACKING any insulin. I ended up needing an ambulance 12 hours into my trip: I had double pneumonia, my kidneys were failing, and I was in such severe DKA that I needed go be in their ICU for the first 4 days. I have no recollection of this, but it happened. Since it was a public hospital I had to share a room with 3 other women once I was released into a regular ward. They all died, and I realized that by some miracle I had been given a second chance. In addition to that, I didn't see a single mirror for the 3 weeks that I was there - I didn't have to wear tight clothes at all either. That helped me the most in dealing with the initial edema. Though I had been to ED treatment a few times before, I knew that I didn't want help then. All the support of people who knew I was ill there (but not knowing about my ED, just that I was having diabetes problems and pneumonia), the lack of mirrors, and the fact that I didn't have to wear tight clothes helped me kick diabulimia and I'm so happy I lived to tell the tale.

ATTENTION PLEASE!!! Am so glad to be expressing my profound gratitude to a man that is so concerned about other people's well being. I was suffering from (HERPES SIMPLEX VIRUS TYPE II) The doctors keep telling me that there is no cure but i believe that there is a cure somewhere and they don't want people to get cured. I tried searching online if i could see anything that will help me and i saw a comment on YouTube on how Dr Osato help to cure herpes with herbs and i also saw so many comments about him on many web pages on how he had helped and cured so many people suffering from HERPES 1$2, HPV, CANCER, HIV/AIDS, COLD SORE. So I contacted him through his email and I shared my problems with him and he sent me the herbs through UPS and gave me instructions on how to use it. It took me two weeks to finish the herbs and after I finished using it, he told me to go for a medical test, behold the result was Negative, now I am HERPES VIRUS free. I just want to use this platform to thank Dr. Osato for curing me from that horrible disease and also for exposing his herbal cure to the world at large, please you can as well contact Dr Osato on his email,website or WhatsApp below.....
