Thanks for having the courage to share your story with the world. The people who allowed this to happen to you know who they are, and there will come a time to balance their accounts in the Karma Bank. Peace, loving energy and healing to you.
I just returned to Maryland after spending a week with Lupe and Margo.
I have Systemic Lupus also. My family came from coal mine country in the Appalachians of PA. I absolutely believe the polluted water caused my problems, and those of my family. Bless your heart--I know what you are going through. Chemotherapy was one of my treatments also. Stay strong. Judith

Thank you. My partner also grew up on the south side of Tucson and, like you has lupus. Her grandmother died of liver cancer though she didn't drink. I can't wait to show this to her
Last year I was diagnosed with an extremely rare liver disorder called Autoimmune hep. It affects one out of every 100,000 people. The cause is believed to be environmental. In my neighborhood there are seven other people with this disease (including my sister). For the past ten years my water utility has violated the Trihalomethane rule by a multiple of eight (80ppm). When I stopped drinking tapwater and began taking cold short showers my disease virtually disappeared. Coincidence?
A Very powerful video. I often wonder/worry about the quality of water everywhere. It's such a valuable resource that most people take for granted. There are too many stories where industries destroy or pollute our natural resources and then get local governments to pay for the "clean up." Plus the bonus is that another industry gets rich because we have to pay for "safe" bottled drinking water.
