Re: Cora

But...I have developed my own understanding of this by adding another's perspective, one with a medical background. The explanation I come up with is how I, my body, decided to defend itself and hide, overlook, etc., the pathogens in it.

#1) It really didn't. It created a different animal in me. I've been myself all along, but something has been "wrong" and I've known it and all that was being supressed/"managed" (I like to call it) affected my personality tremendously. It manifested as intensity, extreme - and anxiety for DECADES. The intensity worked in my favor, and not. The anxiety never worked in my favor, only against it, and finally it was causing severe malnutrition during my period of MOST EXTREME and MOST COMPLICATED exposure (both mold and parasites at the same time...and who knows what else...hurricanes and Florida....a virtual cesspool during/just after hurricane season).

#2) My physical defense/maintainence mechanism has been related to how much I could eat for the past 20 years. This alone, starving the bugs - worked in my favor. And it can be considered an immune reaction.

I'm paying for it big time now. Now I know what "sick" feels like. It was this mysterious thing that lazy people got, I had never a sniffle, sneeze, reason to take a day off in my adult life.

Bizarre.

Nobody gets sick in my family. Ever. One uncle who's drunk his liver to the point of needing a K/L transplant but who has he to blame for this?

I think there is much to be said for those of us who have been exposed and infected - in the Power of Will. It was without a doubt my will power which kept them under control and everything else in my life including m y physical health (but not mental) moving as if orchestrated for so long. But not long enough.

One day I finally said, this is NOT NORMAL. They had taken over. My immune system was obviously f*cked with.

So I sought treatment within months of it becoming an immunity concern for me. That meant a lot of things. It meant medical treatment, lots of naturals, probably way too many, including immunity boosting things (a focus) and it meant absolutely giving in. Not everyone can do this. Or thinks he/she can.

I think I've protected my "first line" immunity by asserting another.

I'd rather have it hit me earlier in life, but all things will come to me as they may. Things happen for a reason because (or particularly when) we make it so.
