Burn Survivors -God's Special Children

Hi. I'm Mikey, I'm a burn victim. We call ourselves the Krispy Kid’s Klub, my parents always cringe when I say that.  I'm in the "terminal" group, that’s what the doctors call it. That's not a train terminal, it means I'm might die before I get to be a grownup because so much of my body was destroyed and injured by my burns.

My parents cry when the doctors say that.  AND, they whisper to all the people that visit me, “DO NOT mention it!” But I KNOW! I’m gonna be fine! God told me so!

Getting well is a trip!
First you're really sick and smothered by all the dressings, then you get a little better. That's when everyone smiles a lot and starts making more plans for the future.   Then you get sick again, and on and on.  You stay in bed a lot. The good part is you get PLENTY of time to talk with God and all the Angels.  My friends and I all know God and our Angels on an up-close and personal basis. They told us burn survivors that we’re in God's Special Kids Club. We know more about Heaven than most people do.

Since I was hooked up to IV's with nowhere to go, and recovering from ANOTHER treatment for skin grafting, I decided God and I needed to talk AGAIN!!!!  Mom had just gone home from sleeping in her chair. She's always there during these times. She's my earth Angel!  I wanted answers that will help my parents understand this recovery, reconstructive and rehabilitation process from God’s and my point of view.  I had plenty of time to ask God questions in between the times the nurses were checking my signs.

As I started talking to God, my whole room filled with Light and POOF! This awesome Angel came and sat right down on MY bed! Way cool! She told me that she was MY Angel, and that God had sent her to watch over me, and to answer all my questions.  She told me that everyone has guardian Angels assigned to take care of, and watch over them.  Did you know that your Angel is with you all the time?  WELL, I thought that was really special!   GOD sending ME an Angel of my very own!  I mean, God has the whole world and Universe to tend to.

You're probably wondering how to get your Angel to visit to you.  Welp, just ASK God to send them.

You place your order and POOF they arrive within a few minutes!   A lot of people never ask for their Angel’s help so they just stay invisible.  Even when you don’t ask to see them your Angels are always there.  But for those that do ask, it’s like ordering at the take out window,  Ta dah, your Angel appears!

Wanna know what Angels look like?  That's easy!  They look real nice, soft and safe.  There's lots of pretty colors floating all around them (especially when they move).  Angels sorta glow like you’ve seen on TV.  My Angel said that glowing Light comes from God.  God's “Love Light” is like a nightlight that watches over you through your darkest hours.   Plus that glow lets you know where the Angels are.

Wonder what it feels like when your Angel is there?  Well, an Angel feels like a warm hug in your heart and warm all over like a fluffy purring baby kitten.  Angels radiate that loving happy, peaceful feeling you get when you're smiling and hugging someone you like, a LOT!

Would you like to see your Angel?  First, believe that you can! and the neat part…, even when you think you can't see your Angel, sometimes you still can!!!  So place your order!

Why don't you draw your Angel on this page, so I'll know what YOUR Angel looks like. I'll draw Poof on the next page so you can see her. I bet they know each other.

Now let's get to the reasons that I called her (Oh, by the way, Angels come in "hims" too and in all sizes!). 
I need more answers to help Mom and Dad deal with my burn treatments, infections and reconstructive surgeries and therapy.  They aren’t doing good although they tried to hide it from me.  I know if they can understand God’s plans, they would worry and cry less.

So I began my questioning at the top with my bald head. I hate my bald head. I used to have thick red curly ringlets. Now I feel SO ugly and stupid looking!

"Oh no," Poof said (that’s what I call her); "Your bald head is beautiful!  That's how God watches over you.  Without your hair God can pick out of a crowd better.”
“But all the kids here have bald heads” I said.........

“God can tell the difference.”

“How?” I asked.

“By the top of your ears, every person has a very special set of ears.”
But some us don’t even have ears, and some of us have so many bandages that God can’t even see our ears, I said.
Poof replied “God can see you Soul shining, whether you have ears or not, and you’re never lost in God’s eyes. Since He made you, He can always find you! ”

Hmmph! God must see something that I don’t.

Well how about my swelling up and getting puffy from all those pills and procedures?

Poof said, “You know those big round balloons that float to Heaven? Being round and puffy is practice for your float and maneuvering ability. When your soul soars to Heaven, with all your practice, you’ll be an expert in flying and floating through the clouds just like those balloons.”

But I'm really tired all the time.

"Hey, by resting, you'll have saved enough energy to play 24/7 in Heaven.  Heaven's playgrounds are always open, all the time!”

WOW! When I think about playing ALL the time! I don't mind these naps at all.

What about throwing up, hurting when I breathe, and all those infections..... It’s YUCKY!

Poof says that’s an “earth thing that only humans do who have been through your experiences.”
You NEVER throw up in Heaven, that's why they don't have crushed ice up there.
And you can breathe as far as you can see, and angel skin is perfect.
So here's a tip: when you're sick, hold your thoughts on Heaven and KNOW you'll never have to throw up again, and no more blisters, changing dressings, no more tub rooms, taking deep breaths, skin grafts,  or physical therapy either!  Won’t that be great!

I said, “Look at me with all these tubes and attachments!”

My Angel just smiled and told me the scoop on these uncomfortable IV's!    
Do you remember in space movies, where the space ships hook up with hoses to get fuel to go out into the Universe?  Those IV lines hold God's fuel for your health.  They're YOUR special hookup to provide everything you need on earth to get better.  Cool huh?

Now let's talk about wheelchairs..........

I used to be mad at my body for having to be in a wheelchair.  I mean wheelchairs can't do wheelies, not ever the electric ones.  My Angel said wheelchairs are like sitting in the hand of God who is always taking care of me.  God and the wheelchair take you where you need to go while your body isn't working quite right or is too tired or unable to walk.   Think about them as an all terrain vehicles (ATVs) for the halls and elevators.

Moving right along with my questions, I asked about all these ugly holes in my body, my missing parts and my scars from reconstructive surgery, graphs, lasers and other procedures.  Poof just smiled. She said, “When a soldier gets disfigured or burned in battle, they are awarded medals of honor for their courage.  God looks at you with His heart.  He thinks your scars are beautiful badges of courage for dealing with your victors against the ravages of fire.”
How can these ugly things be cool? Sometimes I don’t understand God’s thinking at all.

“God loves you a lot,” Poof said, “As a matter of fact, I brought you a heart shaped Badge of Courage made just for you to keep as a permanent souvenir to let you know that God thinks you are very, very brave and He’s proud of you!  Your Badge of Courage is a reminder that you’re very special in God’s eyes.”
Wow, I’ve never earned an award before; ………..God must REALLY love each of us a LOT!

Finally we got around to questions about my friends and family.

My Angel said to be patient with my family and friends because they're doing the best they know how.

Poof and I discussed my parents worrying about my pain.  Let’s get one thing straight, pain is NOT fun!  Then the medicine kicks in...WHEW!!.....

However I KNOW God and my parents are really proud of how brave I am each day! Both of them told me so.  I even have my badge to prove it!   To tell you the truth, sometimes that fact doesn't matter at all. Being sick is not a fun thing but I’m NEVER alone!  During the really rough parts even if I’m too sick, or too raw, tired or don’t ask, Heaven’s help is still right there.  If you could see what I see, my room is always full of Angels.  Poof and her Angel friends are around and protecting us all the time. It’s like an Angel club in here. Big ones, little ones, and lots of wing feathers everywhere! Have you ever seen an Angel wearing a fire hat? It looks too funny!

Now back to hurting.  What Mom and Dad don’t know is that when I'm with God, I don't hurt at all and my skin is all smooth, and everything in my body works, and there’s no missing parts. Sometimes when they think I'm in a deep sleep, I'm just visiting God so I can take a break from my pain.  When I get well or all of this earthly stuff is over, I won't hurt any more at all! YEAH!  Heaven is nothing to be scared of, it's an awesome place.

Now here are the details about when you go to Heaven. You’re not guaranteed to die just because you have been severely burned.  Many folks, just as sick as or sicker than you get well. They stay healthy for the rest of their lives.  Doctors may use that “prognosis” word, but God determines when you come to Heaven, not them! Only you and God get to decide when you go to God’s House. Unless you know in your heart that you are going to Heaven soon (and God always let’s you know first).  NEVER give up hope!

Did you know that God has a Miracle Club? A Miracle Club member gets well against all the odds and stays on earth representing God’s Love and healing abilities.   As a Miracle Club member, you provide hope for everybody who is battling having been burned.  The bad part is that you might experience more intense stuff so God can show off how great He is!  Who gets to be a miracle?  Only God knows, that’s His secret.  Remember all things are possible through Him!

My parents don’t want me to die.  They’re real scared which makes them act strange and hover over me way too much.  They want me to stay here because they love me so much.  My family has trouble understanding that we'll all be together later anyway.

Here's how it works if I don’t get in the Miracle Club and go to Heaven first. I get to check the place out!  After they finish their lives, they get to come to!!

And when I'm in Heaven, if I want to, I get to watch what my family is doing every day.  I have a front row cloud seat (like my Dad's front row seats at the football games).  You can't beat God’s view from up there!

After our talk was over, Poof suggested that I write a letter with all the answers that were given to me.  Then my family and friends won't feel so bad, sad or afraid for me if I go to Heaven.  I’ll tell them I won't be going far and I'll only be a heart beat away. All they have to do is think of me!  I’ll explain that I’ll visit them in their dreams and hearts, send cloud messages and other signs to know it’s me saying hello. Plus, I can even hug them from up there! If they pay close attention they can feel my hug in their hearts!  I'll explain that I'll be waiting at Heaven's door to show everyone all the neat places.

PLEASE don't tell anyone. For now, I'm hiding my letter in my special secret place, until my Angel comes to take me to my other Home or  I won’t need it when I’m chosen to be a member of the Miracle Club.

and PLEASE don't look AT my burned body...... Look INTO my eyes!!!  

Can you see my Love?  It just goes on and on and on.  
Perfect, forever and ALWAYS!?!  Just like me  J

Tips for Choosing Your Support Group  

You are invited to visit Brent Atwater’s Blogtalk Radio show featuring “Support Groups”
         in her radio archives at   http://www.blogtalkradio.com/brentatwater   
in our Radios archives

Support groups come in all sizes and flavors, in person and online.  Whether you're looking for a divorce support group, a cancer support group, depression, grief, or weight loss support group, the elements for providing you with substantive and positive emotional, mental, physical or spiritual support are still the same.  There are two kinds of support groups: positive and negative. 

Positive:
A pro-active positive support group is one that promotes learning about new medicines, new procedures, new clinical trials, new books, CD's et al about your disorder.  This group promotes going forward, and helps facilitate your research and personal empowerment as a blessing.

When you are introduced to the group they do not spend endless hours recounting the disease story about why you are here. It's a fact that does not need to be addressed again and again that you have a disorder story.  YOU live it, so why keep going over it and over it and over it, to activate all that negative energy? That's WHY you joined that particular group.

 The positive group leader is not intimidated by your unanswerable questions, but is inspired to become more educated about your topic. Your leader encourages you to ask current unanswerable questions and challenges each member to think beyond disease limiting conditions and current horizons. They promote all of the members to participate by delegating various positive assignments for everyone. If this is a local group, you take "glad to be alive, share life" field trips that have absolutely NOTHING to do with the disorder, and EVERYTHING about feeling good about yourself, seeing the world, laughing and having a balanced life.  This group supports taking care of your appearance, sharing new ideas, resources and adventures about makeup, hair, wardrobe, personal hygiene and physical rehabilitation and exercise. This group wants you to care about your personal appearance, so when you look in the mirror and are seen by friends, you look alive, and as healthy and refined as possible for your condition.  They discourage maintaining a "sick" image.

 Negative:

It should be a great concern to be in a group that does nothing but recount what was and all that is unhealthy and unhappily going on in the life of it's participants.  Inevitably this will negatively impact participant's minds and spirits.  This is often seen in online Internet groups. Research tends to support that recounting your horror story and reading the countless venting of others, does not support a positive attitude that promotes physical healing and healthy emotional and mental responses. This group meets only to go over and over and over your tale of diagnosis and personal devastation, from your introduction "story" to your tale of weekly woes.  This is a disorder "victim" group.  It is commiseration of negative energy at the highest level of disguise.  No matter how much you think that this group is helping you, they are not.  They exist to talk about and share negative experiences creating a "stuck" atmosphere.  It’s bonding by perpetual "downers." 

You do not receive points on the other side for being a victim of your diagnosis, disease, or plight. You are in fact, contributing to your own demise. Acceptance is one thing, denial another. Being a victim assists your problem in draining your own life force energy. Having a problem and addressing it with the "pity poor me" approach is futile.  It may elicit help for a while, but the keyword here is for a while.  Give up the pity party. Fight! Instead, use that time researching how to restore and regenerate your life.

Do not use the fact that you are having a terrible reaction to something in your treatment as making you special or as your identity. I have seen many cancer clients who wanted attention, and used the negative occurrences in their illness as a banner to set them apart.  This is not productive.  It frustrates your healthcare provider. They are aware of the psychological reasons you are using your negative reaction for attention. Understanding that this is a confusing and complicated time in your life, try to take your identity from your positive approach to life. Therefore, when you healthcare provider does not emphasize or respond to your negative identity crisis, it’s a good sign. Their job is to assist your health, not enable you.

Grieving is an area that takes a little more time.  HOWEVER, positive attitudes are essential here also. Although you have lost a loved one, living with a dead memory can kill off your life force energy day to day and breath by breath.  I personally understand this as my fiance was killed in a sudden auto crash. I never had the chance to say ANYTHING!  However, it's better to celebrate their life and remember all the good. Then you keep all the "positive" alive which is contributory to your healing.  By celebrating their life, you never have to bury their memories. You can take them out at any time, like a special gift and savor all the wonderful thoughts and feelings. 

Weight loss is just that.  It takes times.  However, while waiting, you can focus on the light at the end of the scale, instead of the chocolate bars and emotional traumas creating your health issue. You CAN tell a health story that presents your "learning opportunity" as a learning opportunity to help heal the others in your group, rather than a commiseration band aid. 

If your group is not continually teaching you new and progressive things, and supporting your positive emotional, mental, spiritual and physical and appearance growth, leave.

If your group doesn't embrace having an open mind and awareness without censorship other than that of your personal intuition, leave!

UNTIL you take your knowledge gained from any group and turn it into a positive learning opportunity that you do something about! you are not going forward.  Unless you choose to grow forward, you will remain in the same condition that brought you into the group in the first place. 

Research continues to affirm that being a part of a positive support can add quality and quantity to your life.  Although the intent of most support groups is to be contributory in helping it's members, a negative group can ultimately do more harm than good.

Choosing Your Cancer Caregiver & Tips for Cancer Caregivers
Part of a Series from "Positive Attitudes, Affirmations & Actions to Help Survive Your Cancer Experience"

10/10/2007 - Caregivers & Support groups How to choose who is best for you

  Battling Cancer is an individual journey that takes all of heaven and earth to combat. Choose your caregivers well!!:

Your Caregiver walks a fine line between reality, support cheerleader, hand holder, master "hugger" and "inspiration machine", and friend, who must give that medicine, drives you to treatment, and fusses at you to keep you on track for your healing journey.

 Below are excerpts from "Positive Attitudes, Affirmations & Actions to Help Survive Your Cancer Experience" ISBN#: 978-0-9766370-0-4. Brent Atwater a Medical Intuitive and Distance healer, developed and implemented these for her clients, that used them to improve the quantity and quality of their lives.

 Your Cancer caregiver is your primary filter and monitor of your visitors, both family and friends.  They should only allow POSITIVE PEOPLE!!! and ONLY people who are emotionally nourishing for you.

YOUR LIFE DEPENDS ON IT! 

They should encourage you to be surrounded by individuals who treat as if you are living and expect you to have a future. No "what if'ers,' no "maybe that won't work", or "oh you poor dear", or any others who say negative things.

If ANYONE ever says to you "before you were living with cancer, now you're dying with cancer."
Remove them from your life until they can be respectful and empathetic!  Not only are they unable to determine your death, they are also unkind to make a remark like this.

If they say to you, "I was just making a realistic statement so you won't be in denial and we can address your will, funeral plans, and future provisions."  FORGET THAT justification!!!!!  NO ONE who truly cares about your heart and soul, would ever say anything like that.

Do not be so needy for attention, that you allow yourself to be the "victim" of comments that are TOTALLY inappropriate!! no matter how sick you are.  As long as there is breath in your body, you have the right to be treated with respect and dignity, and as if you are going to live!!!

 
Family members as Caregivers:

If you have spent your life helping others, and enabling them, it's time to stop that energy drain.  This does NOT mean that you do not love them anymore.  It means that you care enough about yourself to take care of you FIRST, so that you can be around in the future to help them.

   Non-healing: 1. "But he's my brother and he just drinks a little too much, and he wants to come visit"..... His energy will drain you!!!  Visit with him when you are healed!
   2. At this time, YOU do NOT need to hear their problems. They need to support you! 

Friends as Caregivers:

There are several kinds of friends during this time in your life.

The talkers/ Takers: 

They call to see how you are, listen for a short period of time and then spend hours telling you about their life. They ask if they can do anything for you. When you mention that you need a ride to chemo on Thursdays, their answer is, "I'd love to take you, but I have book club."  Do not be discouraged.  This person is interested enough to call, but NOT authentic about truly helping you or they would have taken you to chemo…….. There will be more book clubs, this is your battle with a disease!  Thank them for calling, and get off the phone.

You are not THAT needy to have to talk with someone who won't really be there for you!

The Doers/ Givers:

These are the friends that pick you up, sit through, and bring you home after chemo, and probably add fresh flowers to your home. Be thankful.  They encourage you to live with every dinner invitation, movie, or "let's go to" invitation.  GO!  Do not feel like you are "putting them out", "being a bother", or whatever.  When you are well, YOU can DO for them!!!!!  They are your Earth Angels. 

Being the Caregiver for someone battling cancer, and going through cancer treatment is a job that requires everything you can muster to handle your work and all of your coping skills.
 

Advice for the Caregiver: 
1. Treat your Cancer client as if they are going to live.  DO NOT treat them as if it's just a matter of time. Always speak of their "experience" NEVER a disease. 

2. You will most likely be caught up in the overwhelming environment of caregiving, and handling every life and medical detail and decision.

Try to look at the patient and all of their circumstances as if they are in a healing situation, and in a positive manner.  Don't be a Pollyanna, but try to put a positive spin on everything that you can.

3. Although your patient has "determination to live", that determination needs to be rooted in positive.  Positive energy raises their body's physical energy frequency which fights their disease.

4. Creating a positive uplifting environment: 
     a. Dress in happy colors.
     b. Help create a environmentally pleasant and visually happy care area.  Little touches mean a lot!

     c. Only allow positive people around your patient.  EXPLAIN why the negative folks need to stay away, and help keep them away. 

     d. Be very conscious of how YOUR energy can effect the "patient."
If you view the patient in a "sick" condition, you are sending negative energy their way!
If you have a negative attitude, or irritable responses, you generate negative energy which lowers your patient's physical body frequency and DOES NOT help heal the disease. Your energy field will affect your patient.
      e. Keep your energy field clean. Your patient is like a sponge and absorbs and interacts with all the energy surrounding them and that they are exposed to. 
5. Contributing Life force energy thru Love:

      On numerous occasions, family and friends have asked how they can contribute positive energy to the "patient."  [An educational note:  The hand that you write with is your energy sending hand. The other hand is your energy input receiving hand.]  So follow the directions below according to whether you are right or left handed.

     Take your left receiving hand and place it on your heart, and take your right sending hand to hold the patient's left hand (receiving hand). Then say to the patient, "I send you the love from my Heart and it's healing life force energy to use as you so choose." 

You then become an "energizer" bunny for the patient thru your love for them.

Stroke: Stroke Damage Treatment- Paralysis & Energy Healing

You are invited to visit Brent Atwater’s Blogtalk Radio show featuring “Stroke Damage”
         in her radio archives at   http://www.blogtalkradio.com/brentatwater   
                                           in our Radios archives

     Suddenly you feel a portion of your body pause, loose sensation and stop functioning correctly.  Your eyes may see double, your tongue might tingle, and your arm or leg may drag for few minutes. If these symptoms continue for a few minutes (15-20) you are having a stroke.  Those are the symptoms of a TIA or Transient Ischemic Attack, known as a mini stroke.  The sneaky part is that in both a TIA and a lesser stroke, the symptoms come and go for the lucky individual.  If you can't produce an even smile on both sides of your face, remember the date, or have continued numbness on one side of your body, go to the hospital emergency room immediately. You have a 3-hour window to have an opportunity to reverse any major damage. 

For those who exhibit and experience major impairment and who are unable to obtain immediate treatment, stroke damage may result in paralysis, nerve damage, and other dehabilitating symptoms.  The good news is, usually in time, you can have some form of restored function in the areas of your body that were initially damaged.

 Acupuncture has recently been providing significant restorative results by improving some physical functions for stroke victims.  According to CBC News, "The functional electrical stimulation rowing machine, developed by researchers in Edmonton and England, helps people with disabilities (paraplegics and others) enjoy the benefits of regular exercise." 

As a medical intuitive and distance energy healer, energy healing is another modality that provides electromagnetic stimulation and shows great promise in treating and curing stroke damage and regenerating damaged nerves.  By using directed electromagnetic bio molecular energy healing, we can reframe bio structures, ie nerve impulse generators and their neural pathways that direct your body's physical functions to their initial blueprint of health.  Neural pathways can be restructured so that those with paralysis can move their legs or arms.  Numb extremities can be revived and regenerated to sensation. 

 In several clients with stroke complications, after their cellular and neural connections were restored and regenerated, physical therapy was used to restrengthen their muscles that had weakened due to lack of use during the early stages of their rehabilitation.  To date, various stroke symptoms and complications can be lessened or reversed with energy healing. 

 Energy healing is cutting edge and is being clinically researched as a healing modality that shows great promise in assisting and restoring the physical health of those who have experienced a stroke.

    Dr. Bernard Brucker, founder and an original co-director of the Miami Project to Cure Paralysis,       
         currently directs the University of Miami School of Medicine's Biofeedback Laboratory. 

Spinal cord injury (herniated discs, pinched nerves, collapsed vertebrae) is one of the most devastating catastrophic injuries that one can endure. The spinal cord is the gateway for all nerve paths.  The location of the injury and the severity of the damage determine the complications involved and the dysfunction. Science is discovering that the sooner the spinal cord injury is addressed and treatment begins, there is a direct correlation to recovery of the affected areas.    

As a medical intuitive and "human MRI", when assessing a spinal cord injury, I look at the 360 degree view of the traumatized area.  Failing to "see" the entire injured area can produce further injury, and create neglect in areas that need to be immediately addressed.  It is best to look at each segment of the spine (discs and vertebrae) and spinal cord  nerves in 4 equal quadrants.  When helping to diagnose and evaluate the damaged area, reevaluating every 3 hours for the first 24 hours until the client is stabilized produces more accurate readings and beneficial results, as inflammation, further compression and damage can progress after the initial injury has occurred.

 Although the initial site of the catastrophic injury is your primary source of dehabilitation, the damaged neural pathways can extend beyond that original area and days later create problems of their own. To counter this problem, "tracking" the energy of the affected neural pathways will give you further information of possible deterioration and additional side effects.  If you do not have extending neural circumstances, containing the affected areas in a bubble of Healing energy will usually suspend further exacerbation of future problems.

While the allopathic physicians are providing their treatments, you can effectively use energy healing to complement and integrate with their procedures.

Removing pain is usually the first consideration, unless the client is rendered "numb" by his experience.  Secondly, work on inflammation to help minimize current damage and to alleviate possible secondary symptoms and spinal surgery.

In my experience in healing the spinal cord nerves, vertebrae and herniated discs of a paralyzed dog in 90 days, it is best to work on each issue separately so as not to overload the client's health response system during a time of great stress.  Use energy healing to build a solid foundation step by step to rebuild the molecular structure of the cells and in turn the bodily systems.  It is also best to work in increments and intermittently, so the molecular structures can recalibrate, and regenerate without stressing the physical structures.

 First, regenerate the vertebrae's cellular structure in order to provide a foundation that is capable of holding the disc.  Secondly, reestablish the health of each disc, leaving the neural pathways as your last concern.  Once the spine is stabilized, then revitalize the neural pathways. If you reactivate the nerves before you have a solid base in the spinal column, you might create more inflammation and pain than necessary. Rebuilding a system, inch by inch produces a stronger foundation that will allow the client to rebuild his muscular system with physical therapy without causing extra pain.

 Although stem cell research is providing a gateway of hope for Spinal cord injuries, electromagnetic bio molecular energy healing can and will be a beneficial healing modality
