Wow! I just realized that it has been over a week since I posted a blog. A lot has happened since I returned to Houston a week ago last Wednesday. I’ve started writing a couple of blog posts about lessons I’ve learned, but stopped in process because the lessons are still unfolding and my ability to describe them continue to evolve. As soon as I’m clear, I will definitely share with you.

It dawned on me that maybe some of you would be interested in an update in what’s happening. I’m at Robert and Cynthia’s, just outside Huntsville. And I have invitations to come live with others. The generosity I am being offered is heart-warming and life changing.

I’ve spent the week hiring and training caretakers (actually Robert & Cynthia have done most of that), meeting with my family, hosting visitors, arranging for organics and generally settling in.

-, , July 30, 2010 at 2:02 PM | Reply Michael - so great to see your new post and know you are back in Texas, safe in the loving arms of Cynthia and Robert. I know Philip is just a hover away and he is my all time favorite healer. So things are looking good. Praying, praying, praying. Jan

Reba, Chattanooga, Tennessee , July 30, 2010 at 1:51 AM | Reply Michael, you continue to uplift and inspire us with the heart and spirit you pour into your writings. Thank you for sharing yourself and your life with us. Now let me tell you something I know you will love to hear, as did I. Our pastor has been asking for prayers (from long before I knew of your plight) for his brother, who had been diagnosed with end-stage pancreatic cancer and had not been "given" long to live. He had some tumors removed and was then sent to another clinic for follow-up. At this clinic, the previous tests were reviewed, and he was told that some comparison tests were needed, to determine the difference between his previous and his present condition. When it was reported to him that, for some reason, the new tests detected no cancer, it was recommended that the testing start again from the beginning, to be sure that nothing had been missed. After the full battery of tests, he was told that there was no cancer to be found, anywhere in his body. HalleluYah! Knowing that his brother's church had been praying for him, he called their other brother and told him, "Those people's prayers WORK!" You are in the heartfelt prayers of many people, Mike. Rest in those prayers. Keep up your diligent endeavor to forgive, to heal, and to allow yourself to be forgiven and healed. And know that you are loved... most of all by our Father in heaven, who "made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is...." (Exodus 20:11) Love in the holy name of Yahshua the Messiah... Jesus the Christ, Reba & Gladstone "Bless Yahweh, O my soul: and all that is within me, bless his holy name. Bless Yahweh, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits: Who forgiveth all thine iniquities, who healeth all thy diseases; Who redeemeth thy life from destruction; who crowneth thee with lovingkindness and tender mercies; Who satisfieth thy mouth with good things; so that thy youth is renewed like the eagle's." -- Psalm 103:1-5. "Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and show thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not." -- Jeremiah 33:3.

Jane Jones, Atlanta , July 30, 2010 at 12:30 AM | Reply Yes Mike - I am and I'm sure all who follow this blog are both interested and relieved to receive this new post. Thanks to our mutual friend Judy I am reading and almost through with "Healing the Gerson Way" and am now convinced more than ever that you've made the best possible decision for your recovery. This is sent with my sincerest best wishes, and I look forward to each new post and report of your progress.

Carletta Noble, Camp Verde, Az , July 29, 2010 at 11:02 PM | Reply Glad to finally hear something from you.....I knew you were not out.....just maybe down for the time being. Continue to heal. You are in my prayers....

Steve Van Nest, Washburn, TN , July 29, 2010 at 8:01 PM | Reply This post reminded me of a movie quote from Clint Eastwood,"Now remember, things look bad and it looks like you're not gonna make it, then you gotta get mean. I mean plumb, mad-dog mean. 'Cause if you lose your head and you give up then you neither live nor win. That's just the way it is." Outlaw Josie Wales. Stay tough. Regards, Steve

Susan L, brevard NC , July 29, 2010 at 5:10 PM | Reply Oh Micheal, So very good hearing from you again. My conscious thoughts are with you everyday and my unconscious all the time. As you know my love and trust of Cynthia and Robert, for me you are in best hands possible. No more loving, caring, supportive people could you have. My heart is full knowing where you and who you are with. I am excited about your healing. Much love to the three, Susan

An Invitation to participate in an Intention Experiment

The healing power of thoughts and their ability to influence and change matter has been widely discussed for many years. Our intention is to put this information into action by setting up a specific time to send the following intention to Michael Mead:

“My intention is for Michael Mead to experience robust good health spiritually, emotionally, mentally, and physically. I join my mind with all minds holding this intention, and it is so.”

A few simple suggestions listed below will assist in creating a more effective transmission of your intention:

• choose a space in your home or office that is quiet
• rehearse in your mind the intention so it has a smooth and strong quality
• visualize a golden state of health in every cell of Michael’s body
• relax and calm your mind with a few deep breaths
• send your intention with love

At the assigned time Michael will be open and receptive to your intention.

We will join in a single simultaneous intention at 6:00 P.M. daily.

Today would be a good day to begin. (Day out of Time)

Luis Bautista
Philip Rothenberg, M.D.

Nila Velchoff, Pagosa Springs CO , July 28, 2010 at 9:55 AM | Reply I will join in, too. I also wanted to tell people about a book called "The Healing Code" by Alex Loyd. There has been a Healing Code "system" out for awhile, but this book just came out and is much simpler. AND it can be done for others remotely. I have been doing it for three weeks on myelf and Seth and WOW. It's very simple, very effective (it can cause a healing crisis however and temporarily make things worse). It's easier than EFT and for me personally, very powerful and deep. I will do a remote session on Michael at 6 central on the days that I can. I invite others to get this book for themselves and to join in doing it for Michael remotely.

Zimbabwe, Poland, Canada, the United States—we came here to the Gerson Clinic from all over the world for one reason. That reason is to heal. Most all of us are here for healing cancer, some for other degenerative diseases, or so we thought.

But as I've watched our healing process, I'm discovering that it's not about the cancer, it's not even about the body. The healing goes much deeper than that. And all of us in our own way, expressing it our own way, know it deep in our souls.

What are up to heal are our broken lives. Our hopes are broken, our dreams are broken, our relationships are broken, and our futures are broken. Perhaps the most broken of all is our hearts. Life does not turn out. It evolves, it's organic, it can even be delightful, but it does not turn out—at least to what we expected when we dreamed dreams as a child.

-, , July 27, 2010 at 2:59 PM | Reply Hi Michael, I just wanted to say "hi". I am still watching your blog for updates, and I hope that you are doing well. I know that you must be overwhelmed with visitors. You are in my prayers, I have not forgotten about you. Take care of yourself. Radie

Becki Schwarz, Munich, Germany , July 27, 2010 at 12:57 PM | Reply Thank you Mike for being such a good communicator of thoughts and for believing that everything is so important and for wanting to help others. Becki Schwarz

Allie, Houston, TX , July 25, 2010 at 3:07 PM | Reply You bring tears to my eyes on this one - it profoundly touches to the core! Thank you for sharing it, for your authenticity through all of this process, and plainly, just for being! Much love to you, Allie

Jacquie, Grand Travese Bay, MI , July 23, 2010 at 10:29 AM | Reply Oh my...reading this blog entry was the most delicious experience I have had in a while. I feel as though I am sitting under a big flow of love lava...thick and warm and wonderous. Three nights ago, I had an experience of the most profound connectedness...to all, to everything, seen and unseen. The clearest understanding that it is all one, sickness/health, love/hate, connectedness/separateness, life/death...they are all just perceptions. It was so clear, so simple and so profound...but the feeling/thought could not be held on to. It was slippery, like a ball of mercury. I like your "new" forgiveness. I get it...it is cellular and organic and I love that you can put it into words. Thank you, Michael for sharing this journey of yours so articulately. I read it with such joy and wonder. Hope your trip home was smooth and you are getting settled for the continuance of your healing journey. You are in my heart and mind always. I love you. Jq

Reba, Chattanooga, Tennessee , July 22, 2010 at 10:30 AM | Reply Michael -- Wow. This brought tears. Wonderful, welcome, joyful, healing tears. Move over, Jampolsky and Kubler-Ross! (And this is not a joke, Michael; they nor any philosopher have anything on you.) Okay, I forgive you for not asking me out in high school. After all, I might never have met my Gladdie! Or DID you ask me out, and I had to wash my hair that night? Ahh, the mind is the first to go, some say, and I am living proof. ;) Keep healing, my beautiful brother. You remain in our prayers. Love in circles, Reba & Gladstone "But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed." -- Isaiah 53:5 "For Elohim hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind." -- II Timothy 1:7 ("...sound mind"... see, there IS hope for even me.) You rock, Michael.

Rick Church, Houston , July 22, 2010 at 12:52 AM | Reply Well Mike, your letters just keep telling a deeper story - thanks. Hopefully we will learn from your figurative “whack upside the head” and intensely life/love directed focus (I’m too much of a chocolate soldier to replicate your physical/emotional ordeals these last four years!). Yogananda said. “A saint is just a sinner who keeps trying to be good.” So according to your letter, you’re qualified!

-, , July 21, 2010 at 9:23 PM | Reply See you in H Town brother...safe journey...

Martty Groves, , July 21, 2010 at 5:58 PM | Reply My cousin, my cousin, my cousin! Welcome Home! By now you should be in your city, in your surroundings, and feeling glad to be there! I'm excited about all the thoughts you have encountered, the realizations you have learned, and the writings you have shared! I hope to be able to see you this weekend. Not certain yet but working on it. I love you dearly and have spent the past numerous days in prayer for you - for your healing of any and all ailments, be they physical, spiritual, social, emotional, or other such as you have expressed. God has been faithful. He is good. Through His Son we see Him. And that separation you spoke of - remember at times when you have felt separated from God, you perhaps were by your choice or mind or heart but never by His. He has been there through thick and thin - something to remember and to be grateful for - and I know you are. Now life continues in Houston ... Love you! Praying for you! Can't wait to hug your neck!

-, , July 21, 2010 at 8:16 AM | Reply Michael, I'm wondering whether your childhood dreams imagined just how many lives you would touch, enrich and heal through your own talents and gifts? You're right, life does not run according to best laid plans, perhaps because they would be too limiting. Safe journeys my friend. Steve

Carletta Noble, Camp Verde, Az. , July 20, 2010 at 11:40 PM | Reply Some of the things you have said tonight are a little deep for me. I have always lived with unconditional love and forgiveness for myself, my friends and my enemies. So it is difficult for me to imagine that there is another way of living. (Maybe this is just because I am shallow, who knows...). But, I am glad that this is part of your healing process. This is a greater achievement than your body healing. It is a peace that will consume you. Miracles never cease happening....physically and spiritually. All of our physical bodies will eventually die....it is our spirits that live on forever. None of us have the promise of tomorrow so we can make notes from what you are feeling and hopefully get all our ducks in order... Your road will be bumpy but it sounds like you are on the right one. God Bless and keep you.

Do I look the same or different from my picture first posted after arriving at the Gerson Clinic here in Mexico?

In this picture are members of my healing team—me, Charlotte Gerson, Linda Kirby and Dr. Phil Rothenberg. By the way, make no mistake about it, because I sure haven’t, you are a big part of my healing team.

I am on my 3rd week here and will be returning to Houston early next Wednesday, July 21st. That’s when the healing program takes on its own momentum. I’ve been preparing, learning the program and clearing some initial challenges since I’ve been here. More on the challenges I’ve faced the last few days in a moment.

Joan McKirachan, Houston, Texas, USA , July 20, 2010 at 8:14 AM | Reply Dear Michael, Thank you so much for your love and your wonderful coverage of your process. It is enlightening and guiding. I have just returned from seeing my cousin whose husband, Michael, so close to me, died six months ago from an "incurable" auto-immune disease, scleraderma, which attacked his digestive and respiratory systems. He was in a place where he received good medical care. He studied Buddhism and died peacefully at age 57. Now I learn from you and your sharing a way to understand the Gerson approach applied to you when those medical doctors who treated my Michael would have deemed you "incurable". So, thanks, dear teacher, once again for changing me. My love to you, Joan

-, , July 19, 2010 at 12:31 AM | Reply Thank you...you have revitalized my own "track for health"! I am now juicing again, eating organic and without meat. After 7 days I can so feel the dif. In rereading some of my "cancer info", I came across this quote from M. Scott Peck that I liked: "The symptoms and the illness are not the same thing. The illness exists long before the symptoms. Rather than being the illness, the symptoms are the beginning of its cure. The fact that they are unwanted makes them all the more a phenomenon of grace--a gift of God, a message from the unconscious, if you will, to intiate self-examination and repair." Isn't it fabulous and miraculous that we recieve these heads-up warning notices that there are condiditons that need our attention? I know you are heeding yours and I am heeding mine...may we both enjoy a robust celebration at your 90'ith...which,of course will find me only in my 80's. I love you, Michael Lloyd Mead...as I told you once...(I am thinking about 30 years ago)...We love most those we love first...and that would be you for me. Jq

-, , July 18, 2010 at 8:35 PM | Reply Mike, you have walked through the fire and come out the other side whole and healing. Your recent photo is full of color and life. I know there is still a long journey ahead. I will help in any way I can. You are so blessed to have so many loves in your life! i just dialed your # today thinking you would not answer but just wanting to be closer to you. I was thrilled to hear your voice - deep and strong. You will get through this! Love, Sherry

-, , July 18, 2010 at 12:27 PM | Reply Hi Michael! You look radiant! Wow! I'm amazed at the difference from before. I love you! Namaste, Adine

Reba (Anderson) White, Chattanooga, Tennessee , July 18, 2010 at 2:21 AM | Reply "And the things of earth will grow strangely dim, in the light of His glory and grace." -- from the refrain of the hymn, "Turn Your Eyes Upon Jesus" DIFFERENT! You look immensely better, with such a pink, healthy glow of life! What a thrill to see such progress, especially in such a short time. I only just learned you were in dis-ease, and here you are, HEALING already! Very impressive work, you and your healing team are doing together. Funny... in high school I thought all those good looks you wore around all the time must be only skin deep. (But then, who of us in high school really has much of an inkling about much of anything? Rebels Without a Clue.) Turns out, you've grown into (or, could it be, oy vey, you always WERE, & I just couldn't see around my own "idiot-syncracies" that you are...) a real-live PERSON!... one in earnest search of the deeper things of life, and especially in search of the heart of our Creator, and His gifts and purposes for your life. You are, in fact, one whom (as would best be put in Patois, the beautiful lilting dialect of my handsome Jamaican husband Gladdie) "my spirit takes." We'll be cheering you on and saying prayers with your name on 'em, daily, Michael. Love without edges, Reba & Gladstone White "Rejoice evermore. Pray without ceasing. In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of Yahweh in the Messiah Yahshua concerning you." -- I Thessalonians 5:16-18.

Good to see your smile and I will be praying for your adventure of Health. The Lord is with you and my thought for the week is "Let not your heart be troubled or afraid, He is with you always" Love ya Your friend Kathy

-, , July 17, 2010 at 10:23 AM | Reply Well Michael, this looks a team meeting for At Ease and you just added Charlotte to the team! Good move! I love looking at this picture because I can feel the love and connection we experience together at At Ease events and I feel and see it among you four. At Ease times are always healing at levels which are beyond the power of my mind to articulate. Philip and Linda, Robert and Cynthia thank you for being our representatives and for holding the space for us all. What a powerful family you have helped to gather Michael. Deep gratitude to all of you in this blog family as well. Here's to the healing of each and every one of us including those who have never heard of At Ease - it's not a closed circle. Rebecca

-, , July 16, 2010 at 6:22 PM | Reply Susan L. Oh, Micheal, I have tears in my eyes and heart as I read your recent blog. Your sharing your experience and allowing me to share mine with you is what connection is to me at a deep level. Not only does your sharing connect me to you in a way that opens me up; your sharing connects me to all those in your blog and those you speak about. Your sharing your journey is such a wonderful gift; I feel so blessed to be a part of it. The picture of you is so wonderful - I can see your brightness and I would love to give you a hugh hug! I hold you in my heart. You have done amazingly! Susan L
