Thoughts of Thomas: Healing

In past articles I have mentioned the healing of my daughter. I would like to give you some insight as to how this came about, and how it was accomplished.

Healing has never been a part of my studies of The Art. Truth is it is a large part of my power. I think healing is more a gift than a learned talent. My father was a healer. He was a fundamental Christian pastor on a totally different path than mine. Healing is one of the gifts mentioned in the Bible, and healers have been around forever and in every culture. All this makes me think healing is probably a gift and can only be enhanced, not learned. Enhancement can only be achieved through the building of personal power and belief in yourself or your deity.

Now back to the purpose of this article. I do tend to wander if you haven't noticed.

First I must make this disclaimer all times and dates were according to my wife and mother of said child. Any similarity to anyone living or dead is purely an accident (I can’t spell coincidental).

This all started in 1974 or '75 when said female child was ten or eleven years old. That was when we first noticed a slit curve in her spine. We took her to medical and chiropractor doctors, then to an orthopedic surgeon. He got her an appointment at the Scottish Rite Hospital for Children. This started a long series of treatments and surgeries.

We started this journey full of optimizing that we had finally found the answer to our prayers, our daughter would be made whole. But this was just the beginning of a long journey of hope and sorrow that only a parent can understand.

Let me make one thing clear before we continue this journey . If there are better people in this world than those at the Scottish Rites Hospital, I think God would take them to be with Him.

We took her as soon as they had an opening, hoping they would find that what we had been told was not true, that our daughter didn't have Scoliosis. This was not the case, she not only had Scoliosis she had an advanced case for her age.

First was a Milwaukee brace, (she could only remove for bathing) to hold her spine, because she was too young for surgery. It didn't work, they had to do surgery, and as soon as possible.

This started me and my wife on a journey that you would not wish on anyone. It was up lifting to see the care and compassion that was administered to the children, but the innocence in the children’s eyes and the grief on the parent’s faces, will live in my memory forever. All the while trying not to show the same in my face to my child, is something no parent should have to do. Looking back on everything now the most amazing thing I saw were the mothers. If you want to see strength and self control, watch a mother protect and comfort her child to the very end. Even today I have to harden my heart to write about it. How those nurses do it day after day is beyond me.

Next was the ward where she waited for her turn in the O. R. (Operating Room). Believe it or not this can take two to three days. The room was used not only for patients going to O. R. but it was also used for those coming from O. R.. It didn’t take long to notice that all that went in didn’t return. One more thing not to show on your face, as you're telling your child not to worry they do this everyday, everything will be fine and she was for awhile. Then we went through the whole thing again, two years later. After that one she was stabilized.

As the years passed there were flair ups but nothing bad. She grew up, married, had two lovely children and found a great job. Life was good. Then about four years ago things started going bad. She started having pain in her back and numbness in her arms and legs. X-rays showed a gap between her spine and tail bone. The Doctor said surgery was the only option and planned surgery in three weeks.

She came to us upset and crying about the surgery. This not only opened old wounds in me and her mother, it was a dagger to our hearts. I remember thinking, how much pain should this child have to take. No matter how old they get they are still your child and you want to take the pain away.

After she left my wife came to me and said two words that hit me harder than anything in my life. What she said was “fix it” and walked away.

I know I have been long winded but it is important for you to understand the circumstances that led to the most astonishing use of The Art I had performed to that point, certainly the most important one to me.

After she left I let her words sink in and tried to get a grip on the immensity of what she had said. She had just turned everything over to me, the outcome of our daughter's life (as far as she was concerned) was in my hands, and she believed I was capable of handling it.

The gravity of it all made me feel small. I started to think about all I had done in the past, things I had been proud off. They all seemed so insignificant compared to what I was facing. So I did what any red blooded American man would do, put it out of my mind up to the last minute.

That minute came at 1:00 a. m. on a Monday seven hours before her pre-op X-rays. I intended to perform the rite at 12:00 a. m. twine time but my sister and her husband came over and would never leave.

About 12:45 I started my ritual. Once that was completed I faced the East, raised my arms in a V pattern and opened doors in my mind I had locked years ago. I thought of the months she spent trying to compete with the other children while in a full body cast. The look in her eyes when she couldn't keep up. I watched in my mind's eye as she never gave up.

Emotion started to build and a large dark circle formed. I reached deeper, opening more doors. I saw the children, the innocence in their eyes, knowing some would never leave this place, and I saw her among them. My mind screamed "Not again. It will not happen."

At that moment a bright blue oval appeared in the center of the black circle. It was the most beautiful color I have ever seen and in the center was a spine. The spine was twisted and had a gap at the base.

Gathering all the emotions I felt, I concentrated on the gap (at this moment you can't lose control), my total focus was on closing the gap. There was nothing in my world but the gap, my only purpose in life was closing it and I watched in euphoria as it closed.

When the gap closed everything vanished I was alone in a dark living room. I was empty. I felt nothing. I cared for no one or anything, I only wanted to sleep. As I crawled into bed I told my wife it is done. Her response was "Ok." I remember nothing more.

The next morning I went to work never giving a thought about what happened the night before. I don't remember when I got the news the surgery was canceled. I do know I was still not myself. It took a while to recover from the emotional drain of that night and I can't lock the doors again. I can shut them but they open just a little from time to time.

Nothing is free; you have to pay for what you receive.

Note from Alex: This is a phenomenal story about the Healing Thomas brought down to his daughter's spine that used all of his unconditional love, his emotions, fears, and healing skills to achieve. Love can do anything.

Healing is actually achieved by sending unconditional love and thoughts for that healing to the person you love so much, as you draw it down from your Creator God source. The more pure that love is, the more powerful the healing. It is the self-less thoughts, NOT the selfish thoughts that do the healing.

The Bible is full of miracles that God sent to His people and He is still doing that today. It says He works in mysterious ways. I totally find that to be true. Sometimes they seem outright bizarre. This of course is called Supernatural.

Thomas believed his daughter's miracle would come. He intensely used every healing gift ability he had to summon that healing for her while at the same time feeling the pain of the emotions of all that she and his family had been through with her Scoliosis, to raise the power of the healing to its highest level. Through this he created the healing he sought for her.

God allows us to use our power of our own personal Holy Spirit to do with as we please. Using the Light of God to create miracles is something He freely gives to us. Using it for the higher good, especially healing for others or ourselves, creates more Light.

As Thomas said in his last line of his article about Healing...

Nothing is free; you have to pay for what you receive.

He knew that without this healing his daughter would lose her life as she knew it and be a prisoner of the Scoliosis, and his memories of all the suffering and sorrow she endured fueled his intensity of desire to "raise the power" for the healing; to "fix it" as his wife had requested, for their daughter.

He was successful because he believed he had to be, for the sake of his child. His faith, coupled with his wife's faith, is tremendous.

This is an incredible story of one man's refusal to accept the Scoliosis circumstances that existed in his daughter's body and how that would affect the rest of her life. Desperate circumstances create desperate solutions. This is one of those solutions.

Think about it. What do you create? What do you need? What do your loved ones need? Your faith and the Power of God in you can do all things. Jesus told us we could do greater things when He went away and sent back the Comforter, His Holy Spirit to help us. Your miracles await you.

I sincerely thank Thomas for writing this story and sharing it with us all. I want to thank his wife for her faith and complete trust in his God given abilities and the assurance she placed in those abilities with her unconditional love for him and their precious daughter and her future.

I am sure you are as awestruck as I am about this story. It truly was a miracle Thomas "intended to create" and did so with the most miraculous results. Use your Holy Spirit power of God to create your own miracles. You will be amazed what God will do or help you do, as you follow your own personal faith. All of life is a Faith Walk. Start walking to those victories you desire. They are waiting for you. Godspeed.
