Over dinner at 6 PM at Tokyo Tonteki, UP Town Center, QC, I had a very serious discussion with my bff who turned 69 nineteen days ago while my son Aljon listened intently to our discourse. My bff was very concerned at what transpired during our Cenacle of Divine Mercy earlier in the day, that went from 10 AM to 1 PM. While about to take my lunch with my Cenacle Sisters, my blood pressure shot up to 223/111. I always have my bp reader with me wherever I go. We were alarmed, particularly my son who ended up not having lunch at all. I took catapres 75 mg sublingual, swallowed 2 cans of unsweetened pineapple juice. I was made to lie down in an old dental chair while Aljon and Clarita our P.A. took turns in monitoring my bp. The Cenacle sisters prayed over me and I believe that has aided the effect of catapres and unsweetened p.a. juice in the gradual lowering of my blood pressure to 197/100, then down finally to 165/81. Had to rest the whole afternoon at home. The incident was not ordinary according to my bff. For two weeks, my bp was erratic. Too high often, then low when meds were taken. Had to rest for several days, then do things in normal pace, afterwards my bp goes berserk again. As I asked for a break from it all,by way of having dinner at the resto of my choice, my bff agreed to be with us, thus we went to UP Center. My bp was 165/86 and I felt safe enough to go out and enjoy the company of my son and my bff over Japanese food. One important fact that we realized, is the efficacy of Life Enzyme, also taken sublingual, in that my bp settled at the aforesaid count and my muscle pain along with chest and back pains subsided. Atty. Tatit was very firm with her words, rather came a bit strong to pound in my head the matter of lifestyle change. She was right in describing the relief from a high bp as a miracle. She blames my penchant for good food that are actually not healthy nor right and my love for work as the sources of my malady. To the point of even telling me (just so to finally open my eyes to the stark reality of the dangers that could claim my life) that I am stupid or smug to throw away logic in the way I run my life! Thus, starting tonight, not tomorrow but that very moment I was supposed to take the food I love to eat, I was forced to promise in front of Aljon and my bff to STRICTLY adhere to two things only: Not to over tire myself, and eat only the right food. Rei Uychiat from Bacolod sent a private message yesterday that I should view the films Fork Over Knives and Food Matters as the guide/info he learned and applied from there changed his life around, insulin free and med free for 2 years now. I will follow Reis advice. It took one friend, a bff who cares too much, and the concerned face of a son to finally make me realize that I am already a walking time bomb that could explode anytime.. Thank you Aljon...thank you dear Tatit.. when I pray to God, I will include this: I pray Lord for healing, by your stripes Jesus, I will be healed..I will do my part, I will do what I promise.. amen.
