CHAPTER 1
The Other Side of the Miracle
…. A “new” drug had arrived on the market and the doctor was convinced it would help my pain. There was one concern however; it appears that this drug had been known to cause strokes when it first came out. The doctor assured me that “now that it has been out awhile,” I would be fine. After returning home, I spoke with my husband Mark about it and we began to pray for direction about this alleged migraine reliever. A few days later, Mark came to me and asked me to please not take it. He had a dream that I took it and died. I laughed at him and said that was silly however deep inside, I wondered, was God speaking to Mark in this dream?.......
CHAPTER 6
A Spouse’s Perspective
…..When the doctor told me I would have to radically change our diet, move out of our house and take the necessary precautions to minimize her exposure to perfumes, cologne, hair spray, certain shampoos and other harmful chemicals, I said “WHAT”?!!! I was in shock! I felt like I was in a surreal nightmare and I would wake up at any moment in a cold sweat. However, the nightmare would become worse. I began to hear whisperings of how my wife was having a nervous breakdown, she didn’t really have a stroke! “Allergic to chemicals, how far fetched!” Even so- called reputable doctors told her that it was “all in her head”….

The EPA warns us that most disease is related to our indoor air. Good indoor air quality is certainly vital to our health and general well being. Moisture problems must not be simply tolerated…
