Let your feet touch the water
Can you feel that cold surface? 
That’s the beginning of your dive into living water.

Let your feet touch and sink into the ocean of love, 
the waves of the shore, and the sand. 
We live on dry land! 
Can you believe it, we’re invited to swim? 
To become fish in the ocean of love-?

I can’t breathe water, but Oooh God-
He gives me gills so I can go
deeper in the water of love.

Beneath the surface it looks so dark- 
but in the depths are the lights
and …

The Friday the 14th ‘Word of the day’ for January in the Danish UBCmedia little book is, “We get slapped to the ground, but we get up again.” 2 corinthians 4:9 . I read it while I was recovering from my oxepaxam-created panic, and there’s a whole long paragraph here about rising up after a fiasco, to simply continue on one’s way, having learnt the lesson.

“Halle Berry Says She’s Worked Her Way Up From Type 1 to Type 2 Diabetes
Linda von Wartburg
Dec 25, 2008
This article was originally published in Diabetes Health in February, 2008.

No less an authority than the New York Times wrote in May 2006 that Halle Berry has type 1 diabetes, listing her as one of several “stars who have type 1 – Gary Hall, the Olympic gold medal-winning swimmer; Adam Morrison, the Gonzaga University basketball star; [and] Halle Berry.”

Ms. Berry is also described as having type 1 by other sources. Health24.com, for example, reported that “it was during the taping of the television sitcom called “Living Dolls” in 1989 that Halle went into a diabetic coma. Shortly …

Dr. Pendergast on D3

• Article: Diabetes and D3
• Article: Vitamin D, the cure for many Diseases?
• Article: Vitamin D May Protect Beta Cell Function in Adults with Latent Autoimmune Diabetes
• Letters: Patients’ experience with high doses of D3 (May 2010)

Current doses for D3 reccommended by Dr. Pendergast is 5,000 iu a day for normal folk and 10,000 iu a day for diabetics. See the letters.

Research on the importance of D3 in the human body has only started …

After describing the feeling of  ’much better in the sunlight’ and ‘much worse at night’ that I described to him this evening, hubby is still quite sure that it is a mental positive-thinking effect, and not from the sunlight, because the sun is rising very low in the sky at this time of year, right after winter solstice. He asked me if I get the same effect from turning on/being under/looking at the daylight-spectrum tubes we have up in the kitchen, and I reported a very mild effect, but not near the same as the sun exposure.

He’s made sure to research the current danish reccommendations on vitamin D3 dosage, and has said the highest current reccomendation is 1,000 iu …

I’m amazed that my diabetes started as a simple D3 deficiency. I’ve had trouble sleeping properly ever since getting diabetes, and whenever out of the sunlight for days on end, and my health problems are all linked to the deficiency, since D3 protects against cavities, acne, diabetes type 1 and 2, and cancer. If you get a tumor anywhere or have/start to get diabetes, google ‘Vitamin D and diabetes’. The doses need to be between 5,000 iu to 10,000 iu for effective treatment, and D3 is not toxic in high doses, like D2. Researching online says that high doses can improve diabetes type 2 (adult onset) and reverse it entirely, with weight loss. Either way, your problems if you have …
