A brief add-on - the post yesterday was prompted by the scandal at Mid Staffordshire NHS Trust, a body that provides services to patients. Neglect and abuse led to hundreds of needless deaths from 2005 to 2008, Over 400 hundred people died who should still be alive today if they'd been in a different hospital. 

Prime Minister David Cameron announced this month that five other hospitals with persistently high death rates would be investigated too.

If that was your loved one who needlessly died, how would you feel?

After my botched operation in November, I almost died. Three pints of blood flooded inside my from a cut vein, and they sent me home, even though I complained of being unwell. Four pints of blood, and statistics show I'd probably have died too. 

The next blog will be weirder. But for now, if you need to go into hospital, ask for prayers.      

Doctors get away with murder. Did you know that laws in some countries prohibit anyone saying they help illnesses unless they're a medical doctor? Even in the UK, laws "protect the patient" against "bad" therapists. 

Let's get some balance here. How many people do you know were damaged by bad doctors? How many people do you know where doctors gave them bad advice, inappropriate treatment, or wrongly prescribed drugs. How many people do you know where doctors caused damage indirectly through drug side effects, or directly by botched operations?

Countless stories show cover ups. Doctors get away with murder. Don't take my word for it. Search the Net. I did.  

Here's one website. 
http://www.naturalnews.com/021206_gun_control_doctor_errors.html
It shows doctors kill more patients than guns in the USA. And that's saying something! :-(

'ACCIDENTAL' DEATHS CAUSED BY GUNS
-- There are 80,000,000 (80 million) gun owners in the United States.
-- There are 1,500 accidental deaths from guns every year, regardless of age group
-- Therefore the accidental death percentage per gun owner is 0.0000188.

'ACCIDENTAL' DEATHS CAUSED BY DOCTORS
-- There are 700,000 (less than 1 million) physicians in the United States.
-- There are 120,000 accidental deaths in the United States caused by physicians every year
-- Therefore the accidental death percentage per physician is 0.171.
      
For non-statisticians, this means that doctors are 9,000 times more likely to kill you than a gun. Not reassuring. 

There are laws about murders with guns. Even accidental deaths by guns are often taken to Court. Where's the law to protect patients against bad doctors? If your loved is killed by a doctor, and you complain, the complaint is buried in a mountain of doctor-jargon and medical excuses. Doctors get away with most deaths they cause patients, because most relatives are too in shock with grief to take the complaint far enough. 

It's not enough to say accidents happen. Why don't police automatically investigate doctors who kill say 10 patients? Or should they investigate every single case, as they would any other murder?  
Sometimes, taking private Court action against a doctor seems the only option.

Conversely, out of all the many millions of Reiki and other energy therapists around the world, how many have you ever heard has caused a death? I did a quick search, and can't find one! 

Isn't it about time doctors were punished more harshly for damaging or killing patients?
Isn't it about time safer options such as Reiki and other energy therapies were accepted.
After all, statistics show we can safely help 71% of the patients doctors can't help. With no known deaths.  

Regular readers know I usually blog about helping others, weird happenings, or relieving suffering. As last week was my birthday, here's 10 thoughts on why birthdays are worth celebrating.

1. You still have one 
It's yet another day to live and love. :-)

2. Birthdays are good for you. 
Statistics show that people who have the most birthdays live longest!

3. Celebrations
I love celebrating birthdays. To laugh and joke with someone, and treat them annually as they grow up and older, is a great celebration of their travelling around our sun for another 365 and a quarter days. 

4. Variety of ways to celebrate
In earlier decades my birthday was just another day of fun. Later it became another day to do good work. My best birthday memories are surprise parties thrown by friends (embarrassing but fun!) or sampling delights of other country's birthday protocols, such as Denmark's traditional cake and song.  

5. Facebook birthday invites
Last week's birthday was different to most. Facebook reminds friends and acquaintances around the world to send good wishes, without remembering hundreds of birth dates. To be invited by friends to 12 different countries on my birthday meant one holiday a month until my next birthday! :-0 Thank you!  

6. A timely reminder of how much time we left
Birthdays remind us how much time we have left - or how little - to achieve a soul purpose, and leave this planet more healed than when we arrived. If we all tried, we'd leave a happier world to our grandchildren. 

7. Opportunity to review the past
Birthdays are opportunities to review the previous year. Use Reiki healing, or other therapies, or move away from what didn't work. Expand what worked, with spiritual and Godly love..

8. Opportunity to plan the future
Birthdays are like my New Year's Eve blog - a time to set 7 goals for success in the coming year. Gosh, have I set some goals! Watch this space...

9. Wisdom comes with age
Wisdom comes with age. You can still be silly, but there's less silly mistakes.

10. Love
It's a time to assess who and what and how you love. How much love can you share daily? It's the reason, apart from chocolate, to be alive!

11. Chocolate
Birthdays are nature’s way of telling us to eat more chocolate! 

A miracle cure is a cure a doctor can't achieve. If doctors can't cure a patient or condition, and something else does, it's a miracle!! Actually, maybe it's not a miracle - maybe it's normal!!! :-)    

It's documented that Complementary and Alternative Medicine (CAM) achieves 'miracle' cures. Search the internet for 1) any common condition, add 2) a specific CAM therapy, add 3) the word "cure", and/or add 4) the words "scholarly article". It's surprising. Most common conditions have adequately researched curative options that doctors wouldn't dream of. 

Doctors are limited in their scope. In the 1920s Dr Kondo, a medical doctor said in the Japanese Parliament that doctors know everything about the nature of a disease but don't know how to cure it. Dr Usui, the founder of Reiki, responded that Reiki practitioners know nothing about the nature of a disease but know how to cure it. This still holds true almost 100 years later. 

Reiki or other CAM 'miracle' cures are weird, because no matter how great a 'miracle' it is, even some friends and family won't believe Reiki or CAM created the miracle. Even if they do believe, even less would try that CAM therapy themselves.

It's almost as if some people's minds are brainwashed against believing in cures, unless a doctor does it.Why believe only a doctor can achieve their cure, and it can't be found elsewhere? It's unrealistic.

Sceptics are strange, sad creatures. Their main delight in life is to knock CAM down without seeking evidence of the "miracle's" truth. I love sceptics if they seek balanced evidence. Most people I know can't stand sceptics who refuse to even look at evidence, but vociferously promote self-opinionated negative views.     

I researched Attention Deficit Hyperactive Disorder (ADHD) with a PhD student at the University of London. Under strict research protocols, and nine measures that cross-validated each other, we showed that the CAM therapy I developed - ADHD-TriPlan - achieves 90.9% success within 3 weeks. Success increases to 96.9% after one year. That's academically researched. So people should soon be bashing my door down to be cured of ADHD?

It seems as a race of beings we are too complacent about health, and rely on doctors as the only option available. If a doctor can't cure, that must be that, huh? The evidence though is that sports stars and the rich and famous regularly turn to CAM. For example, Prince Charles is a fervent backer of CAM. England's soccer team had a healer under the manager Glen Hoddle. (We played well under him!) Pat Cash, the tennis star, became a Reiki healer after he was helped by Reiki. I reckon Manchester United employs the best healers, because Man U's doing great! :-) 

If someone has a chronic condition such as asthma, back pain or arthritis, and doctors can't help further, many don't seek help from CAM. They accept their disability and suffer, along with their family and society suffer for the rest of their lives. Some though try CAM therapies. Research studies in doctors surgeries show that 71% of chronic patients doctors can't help, can be helped by healers! :-) If only all patients with chronic conditions saw a healer. There would be sooo much less suffering!    

It's worse if people have a condition such as cancer, and wait until doctors can't help any more before seeking CAM. By then it's too late and many die. But some are cured by CAM. A miracle? No just normal. Like the anti-cancer program on www.cancertherapyprogram.com (website almost finished.) If only all cancer patients received CAM soon after diagnosis. There might be sooo much less suffering!

In my Harley Street clinic, international clinics, and Margate residential therapy centre, my patients were mainly ones doctors could not help further. My success rate, bases on a triangulation assessment of quantitative, qualitative, and limitation data, showed almost everyone improved, and many were cured. 
This week I'll publish some of my cases, to show miracles are normal.

My objective is not to have a queue of patients. Been there, done that, with queues from 8.30 in the morning to 1.30 the next morning. No, my objective here is to say, just because doctors can't help you any more, don't give up. 

Don't suffer - Google and try something. 

Your miracle may be only a few clicks away. :-)

Warning: this blog is not for vegetarians...

Kentucky Fried Chicken's secret ingredient has long been wondered at. Maybe it was a special combination of spices. Perhaps it was the new device Colonel Sanders pioneered for his recipe, the pressure cooker, which kept the flavour and juices in. Or it could have been the LOve Colonel Sanders put into each portion?

Years before, Colonel Sanders was baptised by his pastor Waymon Rodgers, as a Christian in the river Jordan. Before that, he swore a lot. After, he never swore again, and consequently became more LOving. 

Colonel Sanders also had a mystical healing. He was due to have an operation to remove a growth on his colon. But after his pastor prayed for him, his growth disappeared. LOve for God, and love of healing became part of his life.

He gained in Christian LOve and faith, which gave him faith to travel around the USA, sleeping in his car, trying to sell his pressure-cooked chicken to restaurants. He had many rejections, ate his own chicken on the road, and loved it. 

It's a great blessing that LOve can emit from someone dedicated to their version God. LOve pervades everything around them so much, it becomes tangible. LOve can be felt in their aura, in their home, in their belongings. 

I teach this in psychometry, where a gifted psychic feels a stranger's energies in one of their belongings. The person's energy has pervaded their goods.

I also teach this for house clearance, when a house or room has a horrid energy. The person living there might seem nice, but they do not pervade everything around them with LOve, so negative energies become dominant. 

If you visit my therapy centre one day, you'll find only love and peace. It's the secret ingredient why people feel at home there, because LOve is the energy pervaded to patients and students and guests. 

Colonel Sanders LOve of God probably pervaded everything around him, even his chicken! Apart from a vegetarian, who wouldn't want to eat a piece of his LOve?  

THE WORLD'S OLDEST LOVE POEM 3,000 YEARS OLD
In the 8th century BC in Ancient Babylon, this inscription in the Istanbul museum shows the world's oldest known love poem. The poem was probably written by the bride of Shu-Sin, the king. It shows that women in love 3,000 years ago were little different to women in love on Valentine's Day today. 

Love poem translation
Bridegroom, dear to my heart,
Goodly is your beauty, honey-sweet,
Lion, dear to my heart, 
Goodly is your beauty, honey-sweet.
.....................
Bridegroom, let me caress you,
My precious caress is more savoury than honey.
In the bedchamber, honey-filled,
Let me enjoy your goodly beauty.
Lion, let me caress you.
My precious caress is more savoury than honey.
Bridegroom, you have taken your pleasure of me,
Tell my mother, she will give you delicacies,
My father, he will give you gifts.
.....................
You, because you love me,
Give my prayer for your caresses.
My lord god, my lord protector,
My SHU-SIN, who gladdens ENLIL's heart,
Give my prayer for your caresses.

More proof that little changes for humans on planet Earth, except technology.

On Valentine's Day at least, let love be your guide, your saviour, your friend, and your life. 

Wow. Hope you don't mind me sharing this.

For me it's simply a matter of offering therapies, Reiki, psychic intuition, or spiritual love, individually or in groups, locally or internationally. And that means helping everyone, from sick and destitute people, to angels on earth needing to achieve their soul's purpose. 

Currently under discussion are trips to teach in Philippines, USA, and Barbados, to help many before 2014.
And much more. Watch this space!

Stay happy

PS Blogs to come soon on "Remarkable Reiki Cures", and "Astonishing Angel Sightings" :-)

Below are paintings, sculptures and tattoos of Angels with Scrolls from the 12 century to the 21st. 

A few points to make before sceptics start scoffing. (They probably will scoff anyway, and won't believe it until they see it.) Angels with Scrolls
1. Appear to all cultures and societies
2. Appear throughout history in every century
3. Art has often recorded when angels with scrolls appear. 
4. It seems common knowledge to those who see Angels with Scrolls that, when the problem is big, angels confirm their message of peace, hope, and healing in writing! 

So it's rather like an agreed contract. The scroll confirms the angel will protect and perfect something that is urgent and important. I mention this because of something I witnessed yesterday.

A video showed a lady crying out to 32,000 people at a meeting. Call the lady gifted, psychic, prophetic (or if you're a sceptic something else!). She saw a huge angel descend through the ceiling into the room. When the angel's head just touched the ceiling, she/he/it unfurled a scroll. The lady called out the words. The message  was long, but here's the gist...

"Terrible dangers for Earth were about to come true. But God heard the voices of those doing good. Angels have been sent to protect Earth from this danger. This, our scroll, is our contract. Instead of death and destruction, there will come times of peace. We angels will start in one country. Our love will spread to the world through the blessings carried by humans. Please do your part of the contract like we do ours. Think and act in goodness and all will find more love."    
.  
That's not word-for-word, but it gives an idea of the message on the angel's scroll.   

The strange thing is, I've heard of angels appearing to groups before. They have on my classes! 

It's an incredible thing  when a number of people all see exactly the same thing, in the same part of the room. When many people see the same size of angel, with the same shape to their wings, and same colours on the scroll, it's truly awe-inspiring. 

Especially for sceptics!

It's difficult to envisage how helping others in a small way could help millions in years to come. 

The 11th century monk who started a small Jerusalem clinic for sick pilgrims couldn't have envisaged the support it gave to armour-clad knights as they battled to protect Catholic hospitals in wars against against the Turks. 

Nor could the monk know it would lead to a unique 21st century global organisation. Members have their own coins,stamps, and passports. They enjoy diplomatic rights with 104 countries, and other rights of a country, without having their own country. (Napoleon expelled them from Malta, the last country they lived in as a group.) 

And that monk would not have thought that 900 years later, the Knights of Malta would consist mainly of rich Catholics who dedicate part of their lives to service. Their annual budget is about $300 million. They are currently opening soup kitchens around destitute Europe, and are responsible for hospitals, leprosariums, laboratories, ambulances services and other projects to help poor, sick, and dying people around the globe.  

I met the Knights of Malta when invited by a Harley Street doctor to become one of their Broncardiers. Wearing black battle-dress, black beret, and 'Great Britain' and 'Maltese Cross' badges, my role was to help about 40 sick and dying persons from England travel to Lourdes, then push their wheelchairs, and help with "porter" type duties.. 

At first sight, Lourdes is not the spiritually happy place one might expect. Spiritual, yes. Happy, certainly not. There are too many sick and dying. No matter how much we may be used to helping sick and dying people, we cannot be prepared for the shock. I met doctors and nurses who travel to help at Lourdes every year - and cry every year.

I met experienced healers there. They said, 'We are not allowed to practise healing in Lourdes. Any miracles must come from Lourdes. Just give out healing thoughts.' I did to the first group of about ten. And the second group of about two hundred. And the third group of about thirty. 

By the evening, it felt like shell-shock. I remember standing on a bridge overlooking the bubbling river that runs through Lourdes town centre. Snow-capped Pyrenean mountains glistened in the distance. Another group of about twenty wheelchair-bound invalids passed by, singing hymns. It felt an impossible task to help so many sick and dying. I remember thinking, 'Jesus was one of the best healers who ever lived. What would he have done?'

And I wept... 

My tears flowed down the river, helplessly. During the first few days, despite helpers having high levels of Love and Acceptance, many helpers cried.

Few places on Earth could be more emotionally negative. Yet, at the same time, Lourdes was inspirationally positive.

Inspiration came from Les Malades themselves. They were so incredibly cheerful, brave, and kind! Their characters and personalities were treasures to find! Despite pains and ills, they never complained!

Within days, helpers' tear-filled eyes changed to looks of admiration. It was a humbling, learning experience. We were there to help them; they ended up helping us!

Within all this is the holy nature of Lourdes. Especially the Grotto where, in 1858, St Bernadette saw the Virgin Mary on eighteen detailed occasions. Place a petition for help here when you visit. Who knows, the next miracle at Lourdes could be you!

And if you start a small project to help others like that monk did 900 years ago, God knows how many people could therefore be helped 900 years later. 

Perhaps it's time to start a small project?

This week the Uk's parliament, the House of Commons, voted to ratify homosexual and lesbian weddings. If the Law also passes through the House of Lords, homosexuals and lesbians can officially marry. The debate split opinion. 

Against
"Marriage is the union between a man and a woman; has been historically; remains so. It is Alice in Wonderland territory for any government to seek to rewrite it."
Sir Roger Gale - my member of parliament (MP)

"Who are we, this government or this country, to redefine the term marriage that has meant one man and one woman across cultures, across ages, across geographical barriers since before state and religion themselves?"
Tim Loughton, Conservative MP for East Worthing and Shoreham,  

FOR
"We will look back on today as a landmark for equality in Britain. Marriage is about love and commitment, and it should no longer be denied to people just because they are gay."
Nick Clegg, leader of the Liberal Democrats

"Labour MPs supported this change to make sure marriage reflects the value we place on long-term, loving relationships whoever you love."
Ed Miliband, Labour leader

Spilt opinion is normal in politics and life. The following statements against gay marriage, and the reasoning against the statements, may be why the vote was passed.

1. “We must preserve traditional marriage.”
Marriage has changed to suit cultural time and place. Interracial couples can wed, one cannot marry a child. 

2. “Marriage is a sacred institution.”
“Sacred” suggests marriage is solely a religious institution. Matrimony existed long before Jehovah was even a word.

3. “Marriage has always been a bond between one man and one woman.”
This ignores the legally married gay couples in 11 countries, and the 48 countries where polygamy is allowed.

4. “Gay marriage will confuse the terms ‘husband’ and ‘wife’, or ‘mother and ‘father’.”
Male parents will both be “fathers” and female parents will both be “mothers”. Not so confusing really.

5. “Gay people cannot have children and so should not be allowed to marry.”
Elderly or infertile straight couples cannot produce children, yet marry. 

6. “Studies have shown heterosexual parents are better for children.”
Studies show two-parent families tend to be most beneficial, but gender of parents has not been shown to matter.

7. “No one has the right to redefine marriage.”
Tell that to King Henry VIII. Citizenship has a right to redefine marriage in accordance with established equality laws.

8. “The minority should not have the right to dictate to the majority.”
What reason is there not to provide any minority equal civil rights? 

9. “Public opinion polls show most people are against gay marriage.”
Most people are not against gay marriage, and anyway, majority will is no justification to exclude a minority.

10. “Gay marriage is immoral.”
Legally acknowledging the love between two consenting adults is not immoral. “God says...” is not an argument. 

11. “I love my best friend, my brother and my dog. But we should not marry them.”
Long-term partner love should not be reduced to friendship, incest or bestiality. 

12. “If everybody was gay, mankind would cease to exist.”
Not everyone is gay, and gay people can and do have children through donors and surrogates.

13. “Gay rights are fashionable right now.”
Nooses around gay Iranian necks are “in” right now.

14. “Gay marriage will lead to polygamy/bestiality/paedophilia/etc.”
Legalisation of gay marriage will lead to the legalisation of gay marriage. 

15. “Gay marriage caused the end of the Roman Empire/September 11th/etc.”
The Roman Empire disintegrated as barbarians from the north overwhelmed them. 

16. “We are in an economic crisis, so we should not be wasting time on gay marriage.”
Is it too much to wish for politicians who can multi-task?

Conclusion
Eleven other countries have already allowed gay and lesbian marriage. The UK and other countries are likely to follow eventually. The main argument for, is that no-one should be denied marriage if they love each other. 

But watch this space. The House of Lords votes on this Law next, and may muster more anti-gay votes...  If the UK votes against gay marriage, I'll blog opposite arguments to the above...Love should be all that matters...
