Story:

In April 1977 I was diagnosed with Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia. In October 1977 I had a heart Bypass. in December 1993 I had angioplasty. In December 1982 the doctors told me that I might have two good years left so I took early retirement.I felt so good after that I went back to work until I was 65 in 1990 when I retired again.I take one pill for my heart ,no statins. My oncologist thought I should have some of the new chemotherapy for my CLL, but the Moffit National Cancer center in Tampa Florida said I was doing fine continue what ever I am doing. My cardiologist says to continue what ever I am doing. Question? Am I just lucky or are the vitamins I have been taking since first reading about their benefits In Prevention Magazine in 1978 doing the job. My Doctors laugh when I show them what vitamins I take and say I am wasting my money. When I look at the statistics and life expectancy for my diseases I laugh all the way to the golf course. I am now 79 and only wish that many of my departed friends had listened to me. The number of people killed by mistakes in hospitals and by wrong prescription drugs far outways any hurt by natural medication.
