I also thank the Lord for the existence of that generous man, Dave Rietz, with Dorway. He helped give me information that would not have reached me in time to save my vision, if it hadn´t been for him and two other friends.
I live in Mexico. I had been a daily user of Diet-Coke and Canderel for about five-six years, when one January, 2000, a friend from a big Medical Center in Mexico City called me and said, “Katina, stop drinking Diet-Coke. It´s poison.” A fellow worker of hers also called me about the same time.
On February 14, 2000, I got on internet and started navigating. I couldn´t find anything wrong with Aspartame, until I started looking for “Fenilalanina” (the name taken directly off the last Diet-Coke container in the house). It was like opening a Pandora´s Box of worms.
The Lord has been generous to me by leading me to various changes in my life so that my health continues to improve. My list of ailments due to Aspartame could fill a book. I am lucky to be alive, sighted and with much to live for.
I should mention that, since Valentine´s Day, 2000 [February 2000], I have not taken any Aspartame. I had been going to a General Hospital here to be checked out for different situations of health that I couldn´t put my finger on why I was feeling sooooooooooooooooo bad.
Among the Doctors, I dealt with a marvelous Ophthalmologist, with 40 years of clinical experience, who checked me out thoroughly. He sent me to Tests of Visual Fields many different times. Each time he checked me out on his apparatus to see inside my eyes. Each time he would shake his head and send me off to another test.
This went on from August, 1999, to November, 1999. In November, my friend, the Hospital Social Worker and I cornered Dr. Durán to ask him what was up. His answer was interesting.
He said, “I simply don´t understand. With 40 years of experience I´ve never seen anything like this. Her (mentioning a part of the optic nerve) is so deteriorated that she shouldn´t be able to see, but the Vision Fields Test says she sees. I don´t understand. She should be blind.”
In April, 2000, I went back to get a prescription for new glasses. He checked me again. I asked him how my eyes were. He said, “You don´t have anything wrong. You´re O.K.”
That is one of my adventures with this junk.
Please send me a copy of Dr. Blaylock´s article so that I can continue to improve. I have a lot of work I want to get done and definitely want to be completely well to do it.
I´m sooooooooooooo excited about the suits in California. I pray for all the people involved every day so that the TRUTH will out.
God bless you.
