I am a mom. A mom who works full-time as a cancer researcher. I became a mom 4 1/2 years ago now, and having my daughter changed my life in more ways than I ever could have anticipated. I love her more than anything, and as her mom, my main job is making sure she is safe, happy, and healthy.
My life has become very spiritual since I was pregnant. I wanted to have a natural birth so I started taking a meditation class. My spirituality has continued to blossom, and I am so grateful to my daughter for that. There's something to be said about having a direct connection to God, and knowing that I am in control of my life through the things I think about and the things I believe. It is very empowering. I also believe that everything happens for a reason, so I am always aware of the things that are occurring around me. There are no coincidences in life. Every occurrence has meaning. Sometimes it is hard to understand the bad things that happen, but there is always a lesson. Always.
I have always been a very sensitive person, but very emotional, and very willing to help other people. Having my daughter made it extremely difficult for me to imagine any child suffering, or being sick. I was so grateful that my daughter was born healthy, and remains healthy. However, I felt a calling to help others.
One day, I took my daughter to Bounce Magic. I was feeling all *mothery*, when I came upon a business card. It had to do with Moms Helping Families. It was odd, since I had just finished reading an article about a mom in Hollywood or something who gave up her career to help families with ill children who had to travel to other cities for treatment. Coincidence? Nope. It was a sign for me.
I contacted the woman, and became a part of the M.O.M. team.
So, what is the M.O.M. team?
It stands for Mothers on a Mission.
We are a group of moms (mostly.. there are some dads too!) who reach out to families across the country (and Canada too) to raise awareness about raising healthy children in a healthy home.
I'm sure youare aware of the increasing incidence of a number of diseases. Asthma, autism, ADD, ADHD, allergies, cancer, eczema, and so on.
Yet no one seems to know why they are increasing! Well, the reasons are finally emerging, and even some politicians are starting to take action.
http://www.ewg.org/node/27137
Through the MOM team, we help people eliminate the hundreds of toxic chemicals their families are unconsciously ingesting daily.
Day after day, these toxins accumulate in the body and cause damage.
Children are most susceptible to these chemicals because their bodies are growing so fast. The elderly are also at risk because they spend most of their time indoors, surrounded by a toxic home!
Believe me, I could go on and on. I have become very passionate about this. What can be worse than having an ill child, and not realizing that you contributed to the illness? Nothing could be scarier, at least to me.
I would love to tell you more. I would love to help you help your family be safe and live long, healthy lives. It is really that simple.
You simply stop buying all the chemical laden items that are currently all over your home, and switch to using all-natural, USA made alternatives.
These products are not only healthy and safe, but many are a better value than the ones you are currently buying. And these days with prices going through the roof at Tops and Wegmans, any chance to save money is a good one.
It is truly an amazing opportunity.
And there's even an added BONUS: If you should decide to help other families do the same, you can develop your own home-based business. Everything is provided for you to get started, even a website. This is especially perfect for stay-at-home moms, who would like an added income while working around their own schedules. Or for those who would like to become stay-at-home moms!

Please, get informed, even if it is without help from me.Make healthier choices.Our children and their futuredepends on us.
