My friend and colleague of close to 30 yrs, Sheila Bath, who is a gifted Intuitive Life Coach-Healer, as well as a talented Chef-Nutritional Consultant, who has spent her life, happily in service to others, in her personal and professional Life, needs your help. This is her story.
Sheila's interest in healthy clean eating came at a young age, as well as her love of cooking. She also found that as a teenager, she had a gift of knowing practical solutions, mixed with empathy, that made her the "go to" for many friends seeking help in their lives, a natural if you will, so her original college stint was Social work.
She found early on, that the model used in traditional therapy, was more heavy medication, and years and years of weekly appts. for patients, "talk therapy" in which only the patient talked, and no solutions given. Knowing the system might never change, she turned to her 2nd Love, cooking, and went to Culinary school, after which she started her career as a Chef. 4 years later, after dining out with friends, she woke up sick with food poisoning, that never went away, Crohn's disease, attacks the digestive tract, very rare in the USA in 1984, and very little known of cause and how to treat except with harsh drugs and surgery, which does not cure, and may kill.
She did not want surgery, and the medications caused terrible side effects, so she decided to give natural therapies a try and after 13 yrs battling this painful disease, She went into remission. And life began anew.
At the same time, Life Coaching, Solution oriented therapy was developing, and shifting that old model of therapy, which gave her the dual career that she loves: Cooking and serving clean, nourishing, love filled meals and helping Coaching clients with methods and practices that shift their lives for the better quickly.
During her struggle with Crohn's, Sheila developed and a deep connection with God and his Angels who taught her Spiritual principles that heals Body, Mind and Soul, and has helped countless clients over the years.
At the same time, she vowed to God that when Science finally discovered that contaminated, and mishandling of food was the main cause of IND, (Colitis, Crohn's, etc) that she would go and teach food service, from colleges to restaurants, a simple but powerful Sanitary methods that a. Will cut down the 120,000 reported deaths caused by food poisoning. B. Cut back the long term consequences of food poisoning, IBD, as explained above, that has gone up from aprox 1 in 8,000 in 1984, to 1-10 people having some form of severe gut issues. That proof was published in Scientific journals in 2018, 34 yrs after Sheila's diagnosis. In late December, 2019, Sheila had set up her 1st class with a lg NYC based Resturant. group, then came covid a 3 weeks layer
In April of 2021, Sheila developed a another rare, but misdiagnosed auto immune disease that aggressively attacks the nerves in all area's of the body, and can be deadly if not treated early and properly.
In Sheila's case, it attacked her feet, legs,and lower spine, and now is attacking some internal organs, which has made it impossible to work and earn a living, after working sometimes 12 hrs a day, on her feet, without problem.
Even with classic signs of the disorder, she was sent from one doctor to the next, with no conclusive result, and due to the covid lockdown, it took many weeks to get an appt. with the many specialists that she was referred to, as she searched for answers .
In May of this year, 13 months after onset of symptoms, and desperate for help, heard about a Naturopath-Acupuncturist, who might be able to help her, who saw her the next day, after hearing her symptoms. He knew immediately, by watching her trying to walk, or hobble, into his office, the likely culprit and started to treat her with a homeopathic anti paralysis supplement, and acupuncture to relieve her symptoms, which has brought great short term relief, but not a cure.
Since the proper diagnosis was missed for over a year, it is too late for the protocol of immediate, in patient treatment of removing the aggressive antibodies damaging her nerves and organs, it is going to take time for her body to heal, with therapies, and medicines, that work, but at a cost Sheila cannot meet.
Sheila still has much to teach and serve, as well as keeping her vow to the Creator that saved her Life. Would you please consider donating whatever you can, so she can continue to live, heal, and help others do the same? With deep and humble gratitude, no amount is too small. Thank-you!
