The first time I was called out in the dead of the night to someone frozen on their couch was a surprise to me. I had treated many other people with Tui Na -- weekly for years even without a formal practice. Those times were mainly orthopedic problems but this was different. The man was unable to move and rolled up like a ball on the end of the couch. There were funny marks on his arms and legs. He was totally unable to function. I was called out by a church group that checked up on people monthly to see if they needed anything.

I washed my hands and began driving energy from bubbling well (Kidney 1) up his feet. I used waves of threaded Qi to pulse up the leg. I kept it up until I could feel it penetrate the knee, the hip, the low back, up the spine, the neck, into the face and up to the point of 100 convergences (DU 20). At that point he opened his eyes and said to me, "what did you do to me, I feel like you woke me up." Yes, I drove essential energy up through your water channel until it could clear your brain. He opened up his body and put his feet on the floor. He was now with us and could function. I didn't ask him what he had ... I had been told by others he has multiple sclerosis but it didn't seem to match the signs and symptoms. I took a lotion with peppermint, menthol, and some great herbs and rubbed it into his arms. The transformation was complete and he was able to operate by himself.

It was the first visit of weekly visits for 1 1/2 years in which I treated him for HIV. On this stack I'll continue to say what I did which helped and made him able to function rather normally during that 1 1/2 year period. In time he came down with pneumonia and in the VA's hospital they kept him on a strong medication in which his eyes would roll in and out of consciousness. He died while struggling in the hospital to recover from pneumonia.

I washed my hands and prepared to leave and he asked me how much he owed me. Nothing I replied, you are a member of my church and I do not charge for helping. Call me anytime. It took a month for him to call back which began a series of weekly sessions. Each session was unique to his current struggle. They brought out various approaches to HIV problems. I hope to create a diary of sorts of those treatments here and encourage others to do the same.
