Chelation Break

Yesterday was an especially stressful day with my students (trauma over the cancellation of Secret Santa). A life lesson learn? Let us be hopeful.

Speaking of stress and all things toxic, my chelation replacement minerals are running short. Given the difficulty and cost of having some meds mailed to me in Tanzania, I emailed Dr. Bruce Shelton (my primary doctor for all things related to chelation). He more or less said, "Take a break". This makes me a little nervous and I'm not certain why.

Given all I've gone through in this new setting, I have officially resigned from my teaching post. I plan to return to the US when summer comes around.

So, I will be going off chelation for six months. It may give me more reason to expand on other means of detox (such as yoga and exercise). I have been steadily following my chelation protocol for 3 1/2 years. It'll be a change. I will plan some major detox when I return to The States.

Toxic Presentation

I have offered to do a workshop presentation on toxicity at the school I work at. I'm not entirely certain what I'll say. I have in my mind a picture of dealing with toxicity at three levels (individually, within the home and regionally). I can speak from my experience with Morgellons and toxicity. I guess the more we share, the more we learn.

I am doing my best to keep myself healthy while abroad. My water filters don't fit the tap or showers. So, for now, I drink bottled water and limit my showers.

With the rains lately the mosquito population is booming. I do use some toxic spray on my netting once each day. I wish I didn't feel I need to (guess I weigh toxins against possible malaria).

Sources tell me the effects of the B.P. oil spill are terrifying! It amazes me in today's world I have to rely on words from a friend and do not hear anything from the media. I guess greed begets greed.
