Did barbed wire ever tear into you? Health boundaries are worse.
Health boundaries can permanently impair and range from misdiagnoses
to stress. Luckily our fingernails reflect our health and show us warning
signs.
When you look at the Health Boundaries Bite picture (above) you see
hills with corn and grain, a mountain with snow, sunshine and a rocky
area as well as the barbed wire fence. The barbed wire "health
boundary" is a small part of the picture but a health boundary can
dominate our lives. For instance, a prescription drug may keep us from
pain but it may also addict us or do unforeseen damage.
Each time we have stress to deal with, whether it's IRS, our job or
toxins, our bodies send B12 to our nerves to help us cope. When there's
a lot of stress our bodies begin to dig deep for more B12 and that begins
to take away what we need in our tiny peripheral nerves, our spinal
column nerves, and our brains.
Because we and our lives are miracles to be marveled at we do not have
to remain entangled in barbed wire stress. We can turn to the hills and
grassy meadows of our lives and focus on feeling the sunshine and
watching how it melts the mountain top snow.
In a way, B12 is like a compass: it can get us and our lives back on
track. Though if we've worn out our supply we may need replacement
therapy for the rest of our lives. On the other hand, a change in
perspective or friends may allow our bodies to function normally again.
On my slimming page I reflect on how both B12 and warm, supporting
friends have reduced plaque for me. Yes, it sounds strange, but it's true,
a fact. If you don't have a supportive family, then recognize that you
are at a disadvantage and if you show signs of low B12 get
methylcobalamin for yourself. It will feel good.
A recent lesson (2007-2008) in supporting myself came from being
afraid of cold weather (because I have solar and no utility company gas
or electric) until I discovered that I have a major source of heat in
myself: I made a tent over my bed and found I stay warm in my tent
even when it's 6 degrees outside and my room is 5 to 10 degrees
warmer than rooms where I don't spend time. Incidentally, the more I
relax and the more heat I make. (2008-2009 - I used a series of candles
to heat my rooms so I don't need to use my tent.)
Fear is the opposite of relaxing. Fear emanates a chill.
We have been taught that it is okay to deprive people of water,
electricity and gas if they don't have money. But that teaching is wrong:
it puts the value of money before the value of life. People need a living
wage; CEOs don't need obscene salaries. We should not be voting for
people who legislate huge amounts of money for drugs and nothing for
vitamins. (2/5/09 - I can see why our financial system collapsed.)
At this point I can see why my blog is a useful thing, though sadly, I
have not kept it up since Tim Russert died. When I saw that he had
wonderfully defined white moons on his fingernails, I realized that there
are other things besides low vitamin B12 that threaten our lives.)
Below are illustrations of some of the pages on my site.
Research shows that cobalamin heals damage done by low vitamin B12.
Methyl-cobalamin is the form of B12 made by our bodies and is as
effective as B12 injections. (Read research excerpts.)
In the early 90s IRS was constantly
threatening me; the stress caused a painful
vitamin B12 deficiency.
In 1996 I sent the Congressional Committee
on Taxation and IRS Oversight a copy of
dozens of my letters, all unsuccessful in
getting IRS to sort out its error which had
destroyed my business as a Realtor. (US
News & World Report used some of my
experience in a piece it ran on abuse by IRS.)
After years of abuse by IRS I noticed that my
fingernails had become ridged. I also had a lot of
pain, memory problems, and I was depressed.
After learning I had a vitamin B12 deficiency and
after B12 replacement all of these things
decreased. So, one focus of my site is how to
repair the ravages of unavoidable stress.

It's a lot like Termites. You may
look fine, But!!! Without enough
vitamin B12 your body has a
problem making new red blood
cells needed to carry oxygen
around your body; as a result, if
left untreated, permanent nerve
damage may result.
I had no idea I was living over an
outdoor toilet pit. I had bought my
home from the developer, Santa Fe
Properties broker, Wally Sargent.
While living there I began to fall a
lot. It turns out that the pit had
subsided and broken the sewer pipe,
releasing hydrogen sulfide which
affected my balance and memory.
When gardening becomes life
threatening, and, causes of
inadequate treatment:
I couldn't get a lawyer to take the privy pit
case, as I could not get one to take my IRS
case years earlier when IRS took my money
in error. So, I have done foreclosures and a
successful Chapter 11, but recently ran into
extreme prejudice.
Q: Do courts discriminate against lawyerless
parties?
I call on the Angel of Divine Love to
reduce stress... often "miracles"
follow.
I give this burden to the Angel of

I traded stocks through TD Ameritrade until
they changed Command Center and it no
longer showed dollars as well as cents. I
asked for help but got misinformation. When
I couldn't trade to cover my mortgage I used
my principle, which is gone now.

This is a page of things that are
working well, so well I want to tell
you about them. For instance, did
you know that plants are 20 degrees
cooler than the earth around them?
and that a planted area around your
home will experience frost weeks
before a barren area? Order some
seeds and try it for yourself. And,
that's just one example.
1. Our minds work better when we
learn new things. (My mind loved
learning about solar.) 2. A most
chilling stress is to be hurt knowingly
by someone when there's nothing we
can do. So after PNM turned off my
power, refusing me two days to get
the money, I decided there was
something I could do, I got solar!
A clever way to replace
MacDonald's with a dynamite

come home to "fast food," all
ready to eat, your house will

healthy!
Memorable romance isn't just
flying for fun in a small plane, or

heart, as they say.
This page was fun to make. I
hope it's so much fun to use that
you order flowers, coffee, gifts

thankful to for years, and it felt
SO good.
How our bodies get B12 from
food is complicated and that
alone makes it easy for us to
have a deficiency. I drew
pictures to help make the
process clear. There are also
lists of symptoms on this page.
In order to use the vitamin B12
in food we need sufficient
stomach acid. Insufficient
stomach acid is a condition
called "hypochlorhydria." Use of
antacids (Tums, Prilosec, etc.)
can cause hypochlorhydria.
Check out the list of symptoms
of low stomach acid.
Labs in the United States report
a vitamin B12 level as "normal"
if it is 200; some report a level of
180 as normal. In stark contrast
there are countries where the
low is 550 because that is the
level at which memory loss and
other signs of deficiency such as
dementia can begin to be seen.
Pictures of changes in the ridges
and moons on my fingernails
show the correlation of vitamin
B12 levels to symptoms. Vitamin
B12 replacement is not fast
because of the depth of the
problem, but it is effective!
Methylcobalamin regenerates
nerves and is the form of vitamin
B12 our bodies make when they
are healthy and can get what
they need from food. (It is such
a blessing for me when you buy
supplements through my site.)

This newspaper story tells of Dr.
Joseph Chandy who has been
treating his patients with vitamin
B12. Impressive testimonials are
included. If you wonder whether
vitamin B12 works, and how it
might work for you, read this.
Vitamin B12 research excerpts
on this page include those talking
about how depression, memory
loss and changes in sensation can
be related to a deficiency of
vitamin B12. It is encouraging to
read the research and see that
recovery is possible.
I love new linens. It's a
wonderful thing to be able to
change the look and feel of a
room so easily. I say, "Fight
depression with new linens and
Methylcobalamin!" Also, I've
tried my hand at a short story,
so short in fact that perhaps I
have it confused with Haiku.

U.S. News & World Report
used some of my experience of
abuse by IRS to lead off their
piece on IRS abuse.
It amazed me that being listened
to during the interview was
healing, and I slept better
afterwards.
It was April 4, 2007, San Isidro Day,
the patron saint of agriculture. It was
still in the twenties at night. I asked
for two days to transfer money to
pay, but no. I was left with no heat,
lights, or phone. By the time I found
a phone on Good Friday, it was too
late to reach anyone... So, I decided
to change my lifestyle in the interest
of health.
The main sources of vitamin
B12 are eggs, meat and seafood.
However, the amount contained
in these foods is small in contrast
to the amount of stress in the
lives of many people. In has
been my experience that stress
depletes vitamin B12.
A woman called long distance to
thank me for my site: she'd
become worried (after a mini
stroke) about her high levels of
homocysteine. After reading this
and other pages she began taking
methylcobalamin. In a month her
homocysteine was normal.
In my experience vitamin B12
was largely ignored by doctors,
so, it took me a long time to get
replacement therapy. The delay
caused some "permanent" nerve
damage. I hope my site helps
people see how vitamin B12 can
help them be healthy.
I didn't rent my condo when I
wasn't sure if there was another
pit. The structural engineer had
said there might be a second pit.
When I had money I completed
remediation and got my condo
ready to sell... and then... this
page tells about the devastating
thing that happened next.

It reminds me of England

weren't feeling up to par.
Red Splotches
on My Goldfish
When my goldfish developed

and, I also noticed that infections

themselves. In the photo you
