Rheumatism

Through more than two cathartic years of meditation, I became healthy and mended my relationship with my son.

During my younger years, I worked in the seafood industry. I was very busy, especially during the harvesting seasons. Standing or squatting for long hours put a lot of stress on my knees and prompted the start of my health problems.

For more than two decades, I suffered from itchy legs. The itch started on my left leg and the skin became red. About half a year later, my right leg began to itch too. In 1998, the itch worsened. Although applying anti-itch ointment soothed the problem, the relief was temporary.
