Day 7

Tonight, we had dinner at church. So no cooking tonight! However, as you can imagine there are never too many vegan options at a church supper. So, we brought our little bag supper and tried not to look conspicuous with a big bottle of carrot juice, a canister of Barley green and a big pile of salad. I have to hand it to Sam, he is really taking his diet seriously.

Not long after we met Bill Irwin, he began sharing his vast knowledge of diet and its relation to our health and healing of disease. He has made it a lifelong study and has taught many people
how to restore their bodies to perfect health. After hiking the entire Appalachian Trail through some of the coldest months of the year, Bill's body was suffering with arthritis. Through the vegan diet he has completely healed himself.

We have passed on his story and diet to three people now who have taken the "bull by the horns" or perhaps a better vegan term would be "taken the apple by the stem" or the "carrot by the top". Anyway, today they are arthritis free. My sister-in-law is the most incredible example. She was diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis and told that by fall she would be in a wheel chair. She began the diet in July and by fall she was completely free of any symptoms arthritis. That was several years ago and she is still pain free. More on this tomorrow........
