At times I felt left out of the mix. One of my father’s allergies was cat dander. He had violent reactions whenever a cat was around so our family didn’t get a cat. My dad went on a hunting trip with some of his buddies and my mom seized the opportunity to bring home Keto. Dad was surprised when he got home to find a cuddly new addition to our family. Dad and Keto bonded very quickly and I remember very little allergic response. Dad got inflamed eyes maybe, a hand full of times throughout Keto’s life but for the most part his allergic response was gone over night.
After watching my father’s transition away from allergic responses I decided I would never have an allergic response as long as I live. I thought very early on that people could live without allergies it wasn’t until recently that I wanted to figure out how.
Perhaps I was drawing just a conclusion from based on a correlation I observed but it seemed that allergies do have their up sides. An allergic reaction offers a physical excuse from activities the person might not want to partake in. I thought for sure that allergies started with an individual wanting something their suffering provided and it grew into a habit. Now this didn’t account for people who have allergic reactions and have no conscious control like an infant but that didn’t matter. I was researching the the solutions for allergies. My intention was to work with hundreds of people in order to find a remedy that worked with allergies in general but was effective enough to end all symptoms. I did just that and this article describes one example of what I found.
Recently I met a woman who loves animals with every fiber of her being. All growing up she played with hamsters, dogs, and cats alike until about age 11. That year something happened to her health and she developed an allergy to plants and animal dander. Activities she took great pleasure in were stripped from her with vigor. One time she even had to be hospitalized.
When she and I met she was on 3 prescription medications and she would add an over the counter drug as well to deal with her issues. Getting through the day was more important to her than the combination of chemicals so she took them all despite the health risk.
The allergies were hers, she owned them. She never thought they would ever leave because they were such a part of her life. When she went through a program I suggested she addressed many other situations like anxiety, relationships, stress, her love life and financial burdens were addressed but she not the impossible. She didn’t even consider her allergies. At the end of step 2 she had the same neurological shift that happens for everyone. She felt in control of every part of her life.
The next morning she left her meds in the cabinet. She was fine, there was no need to take them. In disbelief she kept them just in case the allergies came back again. Days passed then months and about 6 months after she followed my my suggestion she finally threw away the medications knowing and feeling that she had full control. She recovered from the allergies, they’re not hers anymore. She now gets to pet animals and go for bike rides without dealing with Hay Fever.
