The Wellness Dictionary is the summation of my life s work. I wondered why I had so many illnesses in my life and why I was so allergic to medicine: At birth I was allergic to my mother s milk and cow s milk. I had painful earaches and had my tonsils and adenoids removed. Age 7 I had Rheumatic Fever and was in Children s Hospital for a year. Was left with a heart murmur, Migraine Headaches, 137 food and environmental allergies, asthma, and rheumatic aches and pains which would last most of my life. Was thrown from my horse at age 50 which shattered the third vertebra in my neck, broke the bone of my ear and eardrum. Had pancreatic cancer at age 55. Now I know I had all these health problems so I would research natural ways to remedy these situations. I am like old wine, the older I get, the better I get. Founded The Myrtle Tree Health Clinic at age 57. Ran, Walked a 26.2 marathon at age 65. Started The Myrtle Tree Online at age 70. Started H.I.M. Writing Letters and giving Bible Studies to Inmates at age 75. I am certainly not finished with this life, and I will gladly share all my great adventures as time goes by.
