Opening Statement
Peacemaker: Comment ~ Beloved & Michigan, who had found a knot underneath their armpit~ Since 2002 she had surgeries due to a noticeable knot. She went to see a doctor that was refered to her...this doctor stated to come see him after she has taken a bath, BUT do not put on any deodorant. It was later explained, the things we put in our bodies & on our skin is what is making us sick. Our skin is very sensitive and the reason for her lump/knot was because her body was rejecting "Aluminium.":
The Author: Comment ~If you look at the back of a deodorant bottle if you see the "Breast Cancer Ribbion" then you know that it is safe to use.
Diva Girl: Comment ~ A doctor on OM said we have to start learning to read labels. If you can't pronouce it, don't use it!
Admin notes: There was several conversations going on at the same time relating to this topic, however the final comment made by Peacemaker: We should "Eat to Live....Not Live to Eat!"

Hot Chocolate - Jackie: ~Final comments James 5: 13-16
New King James Version (NKJV)
13 Is anyone among you suffering? Let him pray. Is anyone cheerful? Let him sing psalms. 14 Is anyone among you sick? Let him call for the elders of the church, and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord. 15 And the prayer of faith will save the sick, and the Lord will raise him up. And if he has committed sins, he will be forgiven. 16 Confess your trespasses[a] to one another, and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The effective, fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much.
We closed our discussion at 11:15pm EST with prayer from Peacemaker & closing song I'm Still Holding On
