Bad news

     I am 30 weeks pregnant and my doctor obgyn calls regarding my blood work. She said to me that the results are in my glucose test came back negative but my hemoglobin blood count has dropped from 10.7 to 8.7 and they want me to be at least at an 11. The story of my life. Now I am consider anemic and have to do another blood work test on my iron levels.  Dejavú all over again but this time is different.
     I did another blood work exam and consulted with dr.k about what was going on with my blood work results. Now I am back to see him once a week and changing the strategy to treating my blood. My body is going under a lot of stress and changes but as long as I don’t continue to drop I will be fine.
     Yesterday my obgyn called  to informed me that my iron levels are good and that I needed to see a hemoglobin doctor for further testing. I asked if my iron levels are good and normal would that still make me anemic ? She wasn’t too sure what category it would be.
     I related the I formation back to dr.k and he said that is good to hear that my iron levels are normal. I am a special type of anemic that is called autoimmune anemic. My blood is producing more white blood cells which he calls the soldiers than the red blood cells which are the farmers. If you have a village full of soldiers with not enough farmers to work the land for food then the village starves. Weird way of putting it but it makes sense . So his job is to get my blood to start making more farmers to work the land.
     Since I was 5 months pregnant I no longer could lay on my stomach so treatments have been change to fit what I was able to do but since then I have felt different like it wasn’t ass affective. Last week we changed it up and it got me feeling back like I use to feel which was drained and tired, now that I know that my body is receiving it.
     Over all I am bigger and full of mass than what I was with Alejandra which means my body is receiving the nutrients it needs now it’s just a matter of  producing the farmers. I have God on my side and nothing can give me more strength than relying on him. I can and I will beat it till I’m completely healed because I have giants on my team.

Essential oils

     
      Before cancer I was not to aware of the natural ways of living and didn't think it was a necessity. I was young and wild as you would say living like i was unstoppable. My whole world changed in 2015 and it was not just the cancer but so many other things that were going on in my life.
       Mark told me about essential oils when we were pregnant and the first essential oil i ever used was frankincense. I used it with coconut oil as a belly and body rub as well as taking a drop a day under the tongue when we found out i had cancer. There are so many good benefits to oils that i did not know about. Its like a hidden world of wonderful amazing wellness. I began to do more research on others that would help me deal with cancer better and that is where i found out about lemongrass , the second oil in my life changing journey. The benefits are Amazing,i used it for hair loss and rashes which is what i was suffering from with chemo. I go over the details on these oils and how it help me in the past post if you need more info.
      In the past 5 years i have used essential oils more frequently and grown my collection and knowledge on the different benefits. I am thankful to be able to come across this knowledge in the most needed time of my life. Essential oils are forever my to go source for building immune systems, relaxation, depression, muscle pains, etc which  allows the body for better healing without man made chemicals...wow yeah i know right and that is a win in my book. I am not a hippy far from it but oils have been around for decades and its not just a hot thing must have popular trend. Oils are not just life changing but it is a way of life.
     Now i have used a few different brands of essential oils and you really have to be careful on what brands you buy because of the purity of the oil. You wanna make sure it has no fillers and how its distilled, process and handle. The top one that is use is Young living , they are pure with no fillers and handle their own farms from beginning to end. Remember You pay for what you get and if you want the best benefits out of these oils i recommend young living which you can find in this link :  https://bit.ly/2MtrZpx   
The second brand would be Doterra. i recommend to always do research and see what is best for you. I hope to open a new world of great benefits for a better way of living. As i go through my journey of clean living and pregnancy i will be posting my views and its benefits so stay tune.
