Prior to 2003, I thought my life was perfect. I had my dream job in law enforcement, working with children, two beautiful daughters and overall healthy as it seemed. In October 2003, I noticed a rattle in my lungs that just seemed to never go away. I went to the doctors for what I thought would be a trip for antibiotics that ended up in emergency with congestive heart failure due to complete kidney failure. In an instant, my life had changed. The kidney failure was due to stress and high blood pressure. I was instantly put on dialysis for twelve hours a day. My home became my hospital room. Tired, frustrated, and removed from my everyday routine and my daughters activities I found myself depressed. In January 2005, I was blessed with a gift of life. My niece had donated a kidney and it seemed that all was back to normal. The transplant was successful and I was back to work and once again able to be fully involved in my daughters activities. Life was blessed.

In March 2006, I noticed my energy level started to decrease and went to the doctor for a checkup. I was given the news I had developed a blood disease of leukemia either through dialysis or the many blood transfusions during the process. My options were start chemo and high doses of steroids or go home and live my life, which would have been easier than treatment but they gave me less than a year. So treatment started and I was blessed once more going into full remission. My daughters graduated, I was promoted at work and in 2009, married the man of my dreams.

Shortly after our wedding, I noticed energy level started to decrease. My blood pressure was off the chart and I was in and out of the hospital. I chalked it up to moving, the wedding and such. Within weeks, I was told the leukemia was active again and moving rapidly through my body. My options were the same, but this time they added I had a 99% chance of losing my transplanted kidney. Being the stubborn person I am, I did a lot of praying and research and opted for an alternative treatment. Which begins my experience with liquid fucoidan. I was part of a study that gave high doses of the fucoidan orally and intravenously daily for sixteen weeks to reduce the cancer cells and build immunity against the cancer. Blessed by determination, family support and prayer and what I consider a miracle treatment in May 2010, I was in full remission. Sadly the pharmaceutical companies and FDA will not approve this treatment because of cost. This brings me to the present and my experience with LIMU.

In the beginning of September this year, my doctors noticed a tumor in the right side of my neck. Though tested negative for cancer, the tumor was increasing in size and shape rapidly and my doctors wanted to operate. Feeling very unsure of surgery, I hesitated going through with it. I immediately asked the doctors if I could put it off until after the holidays. They agreed if I would go in for an MRI weekly to be monitored. In the beginning of October, I was approached with LIMU. Knowing the benefits of fucoidan from my past experience, I didn’t have to think twice. Feeling confident about the product, I decided to do an experiment for myself without telling my doctors. I started taking 8 to 12 ounces a day of LIMU on Oct. 9, 2011. On Nov. 2, I had an MRI that showed the tumor had decreased and on Nov. 8, another MRI that showed no signs of the tumor. In addition, my blood pressure has been stable and I’m off of blood pressure meds. For the first time since my kidney failure, I was again blessed or some may say lucky. I say both because I have LIMU.

Another perspective of the product is the business opportunity, which I feel has helped my overall health and mental well-being. My dreams and goals that seem so out of reach are closer in hand. Though my life has had many blessings, because of my health I could not return to the career I loved so much. Since 2008, I tried four other MLM companies. Though great products, the business model was not duplicable and left me feeling as if I had failed and failed those I brought into the companies with me, leaving me depressed with a lack of confidence. LIMU has given me back the want to succeed and the feeling that I can help others. The product stands alone, but the business model and the people behind it make me feel like I’m a part of something that believes in me, gives me confidence, endurance, and you can say an inner smile. To me that is the best treatment for anybody. So in closing, these are not just words but what’s in my heart.

I AM LEAH DONATELLI AND I AM LIMU.
