Wise Nutrition Website Introduction

In January 12 years ago (2014), just after I turned 60, my yearly blood tests showed abnormal red and white blood cells. These are produced in the bone marrow which is severely damaged.

Shortly after Ruth and I went to Uluru to celebrate. I was sick but did not realise it. Shortly after at Easter, I was moving my motor bike and damaged my back.

I was hobbling around with a walking stick. The doctor’s wife and receptionist said I should get a walker instead of realising that there was something seriously wrong. Dr. John and his wife belong to a fundamentalist Christian group.

It took Dr. John 9 months to diagnose. My massage person said that I needed an MRI. But Dr John wrote out a request for an X-ray because it was $291 cheaper (a bargain) – but useless.

After I was diagnosed Dr. John booked me in at the Mater hospital to follow up but then sent me home. He should have sent me to hospital the next morning after I organised my life – my outcome would have been much different. Dr John said that any cancer is not good but if you are going to get cancer this is the best that you can get. Not really true. Average life expectancy is less than 5 years but expected time left is 2-3 years. One friend died within two weeks of being diagnosed.

Several days after I was diagnosed I felt really sick. I arrived at Maitland hospital with a bucket, walked in through the doors and that is the last I remember for the next 6 days. An ambulance took me to the Mater hospital in Newcastle and spent the next 11 weeks in intensive care. No-one told my about ICU psychosis – vivid, intense visions that appear much more real than reality. I saw ambulances arrive to take my dead body away and daughter Jessica was under the bed and changing medication. I could see the night nurse at his PC. He that he “had NO respect for me”. This is the person that I had entrusted my life to.

I have multiple myeloma which is a rather brutal form of blood cancer that damages bones and creates gross abnormal growths. 3 cms of bone added to my chest. All vertebrae have been crushed, each rib broken. I lost 21kg in 4 weeks – down to 47kg. I am now back to 49kg. When I first went to Bali I gracefully slid into their swimming pool and sank to the bottom.

Previously I was super fit and healthy. I kept a skipping rope outside the back door and did 1000 skips each day. I weighed the same I was at school (68kg) – still have my tattered football jumper that I can fit into.

Jessica’s step father in-law was an orthopeadic surgeon in London. He said that the doctor should have requested an MRI immediately. He and Jessica raised a formal complaint but it was dismissed.

I am only alive because I have a great naturopath (most naturopaths are really useless) as well as my weekly treatments at the Mater.

Twice Ruth was told that I would not be coming home. Jessica was living in San Francisco so it was a very uncomfortable time.

Apart from my immuno-logical tests, my pathology tests are really very good. I will not be dying of sex-hormone related cancers (which include prostate cancer), or bowel cancer, heart disease or kidney or liver failure. My systolic blood pressure (the higher value) is usually less than 120 mmHg, cholesterol 4.0 mmol/L and oxygen saturation 100% which is really good even for the general population.

Para-protein which is a reflection of the level of damaged immune system cells which are ineffectual. The last 3 tests showed none detected. So there is no reason why I will not be around when I am 80.

Daughter Jessca lives in Bali with two boys aged 8 and 5 and a girl aged 15 months and a number of cats. The children adore their nannies who a part of the family. Rabies is rampant in Bali. A brutal viral disease. Rabies vaccination – initially developed by Louis Pasteur, is one of the great medical success stories – along with Ebola vaccine.

Not all vaccination programs are equally successful.

Bali is a great society. Much more freedom than Australian society. 4.5 million people living on an island 150km long. They cannot produce all their food because a lot of available land has been taken over by tourist development. A number of tourists especially those from northern Europe do not respect the Balinese people.

I have a great health website that I started before I become sick. Professor Stewart Truswell, who is 98 and still has an office at University of Sydney, says he cannot find any mistakes in all the material that I have produced. He says that I am brilliant. Who am I to disagree?

It would be much more credible if I was well.

I have posters and books at my local organic shop where we do our grocery shopping. I have had a number of people (well 4) approach me and said that they have cured their incurable arthritis, diabetes, high blood pressure and endometriosis simply by changing what they eat.

Two were really, really angry – wanting to know why their expensive and ineffectual specialists could not fix them, when they were much improved by the end of the week.
