My grandmother sat on the couch the last few years of her life. Her hips were so painful that she had to use a walker just to move around. She was an Iowa farm-girl and to see this once vibrant woman immobile was painful just to watch. Grandma has since passed away but the arthritis that put her on her sofa has affected my mother, my sister, and yes, myself.
I am only 53 years old and already a joint in my hand was frozen stiff. My feet, hips, hands and neck were sore and daily activities were more limited than what they used to be. If I wanted to back up my car, I had to turn my whole body around to look because my neck wouldn't rotate. I couldn't quilt any more and to hold my husbands hand was not something I looked forward too. How sad it that? My hips hurt all of the time and I could see where I was going to follow all of the special women in my family....right to the old sofa one day. I didn't want that. Who would? I will not take prescription medication, if at all possible, because with my medical background I know the damage that it does, in the long run, to your liver and kidneys. I was looking for an alternative.
It was my husband who found it for me and the answer was Reliv. Now, my arthritis didn't happen overnight and I was willing to be patient while Reliv's Arthaffect worked within my body. It took almost two months before I started seeing anything happen and it was the hand-holding where I first took notice. It didn't hurt! That joint in my hand that had been frozen for two years now moves and my hips are flexible and I am down on the floor playing with my grandchildren. I can fully turn my head to look from side to side and I am able to quilt again. Now that I am active I am losing weight and I feel better than I have in years.
No, my arthritis isn't cured, but it is not painful any more. I get out of bed in the morning with a hop, skip and jump and a smile on my face....not a grimace! If you would like more information you may email me or give me a call. I enjoy helping others feel as good as I do.
