Just after Thanksgiving ’06 I was giving a diagnosis of having an unruptured brain aneurism and advised to seek treatment of it which involved having a craniotomy to have it clipped. Naturally, I was very surprised being a young, healthy mid-thirties woman planning on getting married just after the New Year and start a new family just after. The surrealness of this news was staggering and frightening. I have always been spirtual but I was SCARED. The thoughts of what would happen in the worst case scenarios were hard to put aside.
From the day they told me to the day of my scheduled surgery was 1 month. About 2 weeks after hearing this and dealing with all the negative thoughts in my head I found myself listening to the radio while driving in my car. It was a radio show about real estate and a woman on the show spoke of
“The Secret” and how everyone could benefit from watching it even those who thought they could never be able to afford to buy a house. I was intrigued.
When I got home I looked it up on the internet and watched the video. I wept as I watched. It was exactly what I needed to hear at that moment. I was so inspired I sent the link to most everyone on my email list. I did not tell most of my friends what I was about to go through but I was convinced to use the tools of my mind to get me through this. I was also convinced that those close to me could also benefit from the ideas expressed in “The Secret” so I purchased several of them and gave them away as Christmas presents.
I got a very clear idea of not just what I was about to go through but about the outcome. I envisioned myself perfectly healthy and pregnant! It made me very calm and I had No Fear. I viewed my diagnosis as a blessing. I became very grateful and put aside all my past thoughts of being a stroke victim. I watched the Secret several times before my surgery and I still watch it.
I speak of it often and it seems like more and more people have already heard of it. I really feel as though it came to me at such the perfect time in my life and feel very blessed and know that I have the power to choose whatever I want in my life.
I have fully recovered from my surgery (my friends are suprised I even had brain surgery) and I am perfectly healthy. I’m living my life as I did before, but with an eagerness to share my story and an excitment of attaining all my wildest dreams!
