RE: Final Tally, #foodfightfriday
Good morning my friend. Best spray paint ever, these murals you're talking about must absolutely be off the charts. You've posted so many great pics of street art, it's hard to believe there could be anything better. Next post involving spray painted murals should be a good one, will keep an eye out .
I hope your stay in Israel is turning out to be everything you expected, and more.
The trick with growing Stellas are the 
😊
Thanks for taking time out of your very busy schedule to get back to me.
I'd have to go with @puravidaville with the sweet potato ranking.
For the life of me I can't find beet spelled beat, but who the flock cares. 🤷♀️
I guess that having fingers the size of a banana, there maybe a sprelling eror or 2 now and again.
Stay Safe, Stay in touch, and enjoy @dandays
@thebigsweed.
Dude that’s so funny! Beet and beat. I meant “beet,” nobody ever said their favorite veggie is a beet! <- that’s what I meant. But that sure did work out in my favor, didn’t it?? I thought everyone passed on those things regardless of the spelling—Nope! I know a dude in NYC who says they’re his favorite.
Pura is registering our plane ride for tomorrow as I type, we’ll be en route to Rome tomorrow evening. I’m checking this out while she’s doing that. Oh my goodness, Bob!
Today was amazing. It rained all day or, as I like to call it, we were actively baptized all day today as we walked inside Mary’s tomb, viewed the old city from atop the Mount of Olives, I got a picture inside Jesus’s tomb. And... and... and... Dude.. we stuck our hand inside the rock that the crucifix was planted in. SO much today.. it was a long day. I’ll be sharing it with you soon. And would you believe today is also our 3 year anniversary?! Amazing, right? It’s these types of things that reminds me just how human we are.
Thanks for staying tuned in—that really means a lot. Ima beet the streat now. 😉 Can you Palm a basketball? I can.. my fingers are all over the keyboard, too. 👍🏿
Correct me if I’m wrong, but you guys have an anniversary right now, too, right? I thought I remember you guys being just like one day apart of ours or something. Is that the case?
Blessings to the whole farm! Eh, and thanks for being my listening ear (reading eye—whatever), in case you ain’t noticed, I’ve been running to your phone when I have a free moment cuz I’m so excited to share this experience. I’ve taken over 2,000 pictures dude just of Israel. 2,048 to be exact. Sure, there’s some burts in there but 2k is 2k.... that’s SO much editing and deleting I’ll be doing to make sure ya’all only see the finest.
Ok, she found a restaurant, I’m really gonna leave now!
PS. Man, back when we were radio silent for a minute.. was it as
shiturdy for you as it was for me?! lol! “Guilty.”edit this is like my third edit.... I shoulda known you grow your own F’ing hops!
I'm reading this @dandays top notch reply, after reading what has been going on with pura. By the time this gets to you, I hope you guys have found some sort of solution.
She's way to dedicated to living a healthy lifestyle to have to be dealing with so much.
Send her our love!
So much to share from the Israel leg of your journey. 2,048 pics, heck you've got material for months.
Happy anniversary, three years, I'm sure those three years went by in a blink, that's what happens when your Happy!
The day we said I do was August 30th, do you have anything going on in September. For some reason September rings a bell.
Radio silence, it felt like I had lost a cherished friend.
" we stuck our hand inside the rock that the crucifix was planted in. "
Chilling, something you'll never forget.
Stay Safe!
Here comes another long one, sir.
Our anniversaries and birthdays are so close to each other’s. Thank you for three year wishes. Yeah, my birthday is the day after your anniversary and Pura’s is the middle of September. You’re right, sir, I’m new at this so I wouldn’t have been able to predict just how quickly these three years moved. Your whole life must move at light speed having found @farm-mom so young—way to lead by example you guys.
The only thing I wish I would’ve done about that article is do it sooner. Sir, I think we made some excellent progress. I believe we have it narrowed down to one of two things, diabetes or biome infection. I, honestly, don’t believe it’s diabetes and believe she’s been misdiagnosed for too long. Do you know who @jaguar.force is? If not, I highly recommend following his account, he’s from Argentina and, as much as I knew was, he’s a force for busting people out for plagiarism and stealing other authors content. Well, there’s more to it than that. I’ll be giving him a much more formal thank you in due time once we have a few procedures behind us.
What he does is “image match.” The imagery software he uses is beyond by explanatory realm so I won’t even try but between the pictures and her explanation, I’m like 90% certain he nailed it! We’ll be going back to the UK at the beginning of the year and putting our travels on hold for a minute so she can get into the doctor and get her biome tested. Are you familiar with any of this stuff?
Check out what jaguar taught me. Firstly, our bodies have a “second brain.” It’s not just a weird myth, it’s actual proven science conducted from universities such as UCLA—it’s in the stomach.
Check this out:
https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/gut-second-brain/
And, the further he investigated, he found this article and reading it is like reading Pura’s autobiography—what a trip!
https://robbwolf.com/2017/01/13/what-happened-when-i-got-a-fecal-transplant/
As time progresses, weird things like her inability to throw away trash or feeling uncomfortable when people don’t smile kind of drives me crazy like “what’s up with that?!” Well, according to that article, there’s an explanation for it.
What it means is, the healthy lifestyle of hers is actually “counter-productive.” Fascinating, right?! It essentially means that if your gut biomes are our of whack, everything you do works the opposite—“counter-productive.” When you eat well, your stomach tells the brain you’re eating junk and vice versa, eat junk and the stomach tells the brain you’re eating well. How crazy is that?!
The craziest thing of all is, I learned all of this by reaching out to a group of virtual strangers in less than two days when trained medical professionals couldn’t help us over a 1n1/2 year span.
Our bodies are a trippy as ish and God is great.
What a great community her on Steemit. The outpouring of concern for @puravidaville is amazing, and rightfully so.
Both articles are full of information that is all new to me. I have heard of leaky gut syndrome and the havoc it can cause. The gut, having its own brain sort of speak, seems to play a major role in a person's overall health. "The second brain contains some 100 million neurons, more than in either the spinal cord or the peripheral nervous system, Gershon says." This one fact tells us just how big of a role your gut plays in your health.
That FMT procedure seems like it may be an option.
It just amazes me how standard medicine could be so far off with their diagnosis, it makes you wonder what the heck they're doing.
I hope the information you have garnered over the past several days is helpful.
When the ones we love are hurting we hurt right along with them.
Some answers to Pura's medical issues sure would be welcome, and would give both of you some relief.
We will be keeping in touch, and wish both of you the very best.
