Miracle

Hi guys

You may remember me as the girl who posted about my suicidal mother who had not been off the floor in nine months from excruciating back pain. She had to have someone lift her to go to the bathroom. It was just under a week ago that I wrote my first post on this forum, the first day my mother seriously asked me to help her end her life.

I cannot begin to describe the changes that have take place. It is absolutely no less than a miracle. Nothing so miraculous has ever occurred in our lives. She has been reading all Sarno's books and writing everyday and doing therapy. Something "clicked" for her. She had several amazing realizations. One was that she was able to really let go of some past traumas in her body. Another happened when she fell out of her wheel chair and the next morning underst00d that her back must not be hurt if she was able to get through that. I walked into her room yesterday morning and she just looked at me said "hi baby" and sat up!!!! I just cried my eyes out. Since then she has gotten up by herself probably 100 times. Today she took a shower on her own and actually walked around the house (with her crutches )!! The most incredible thing is that she is just certain she will be better. She says its all about fear and she is not afraid anymore. She looks 15 years younger. She has a radiant glow to her that I have never seen before. She says through the meditation she can actually feel "the good warm things" inside her not just the pain. She has had many pain free moments. She feels incredibly happy!

I just cannot believe how fast this can happen. A week ago my family was the lowest it has ever been and now we feel truly blessed. I really believed the one thing that turned it around the most was this forum. Just having these incredible people to to provide support and encouragement was priceless. I would like to thank Eric "herbie" Watson for all his loving, incredibly confidant and insightful support and all the other angels who gave such wonderful words of inspiration. Without you I am confident that things would have turned out a very different way.

Thank You from the bottom of our hearts

 

Amazing story!!!!
lost for words...

 

God bless you, You now have the Gift
I love you both with all my heart.

 

Whoa! How wonderful. I'm so happy for you, your mother, and all your loved ones. I also feel personally blessed to witness this, even on an online forum. This is such an uplifting story. Thank you for the happy tears falling down my face right now!!

 

How wonderful!! I am so happy to hear this. This will surely be an encouragement to all of us.
It is a reminder that miracles do happen!!!

I know fear is one of the main weapons TMS tries to use. We must all learn how to dismantle it.
It is awesome that your Mom has learned how to do this so quickly. Please, keep posting. I am so
interested in hearing more.

And now your miraculous story will serve to inspire others. I know it's inspired me!

Thanks for sharing it....

 

Just awesome. I needed to read this! Thanks & keep us posted.

 

Count me in with the others who are inspired by your mother's miracle. I hope everyone reads it.

I'm 83 and recovered from bad back pain by following the Dr. Sarno book and journaling to discover
repressed emotions I never thought I had. I also put my faith in the Lord to heal me, and my prayers
were answered. "Ask and you shall receive," He told us.

Thank you for sharing your mother's wonderful experience.

 

elenimia's mother's success story said she is getting better by conquering fear.

That's a big one in TMS healing. In The Mind Body Prescription, Dr. Sarno writes:
"Fear is another important equivalent of pain that may be more effective than the pain
itself to achieve the mind's goal of distracting attention from repressed rage.
The fear of pain, physical activity, injury, or spinal abnormality is enough to
perpetrate TMS, even in the absence of pain. The mind is interested only in keeping
our attention on the body; the fear of any of these phenomena will accomplish
that as well as the reality of pain itself. That is why our therapeutic program requires
not only the cessation of pain but the elimination of fear."

Remember what Fraklin Delano Roosevelt told the nation during World War II:
"The only thing we have to fear is fear itself."
He helped get us through that war while in a wheelchair with polio,
with wartime stresses that must have added to his pain. But he fought fear and
kept going, leading the country out of that horror.

I have to laugh... I like to laugh... remembering a funny line from a great movie
comedy, "The Palm Beach Story," 1942, when Mary Astor says,
"Nothing is permanent, except Roosevelt." He was in his third term then.

The good thing was, fear wasn't permanent, and it need not be.

 

Amazing story. So helpful. Thanks for sharing and congrats on your miracle. Awesome!
