First of all, I would like to express my heartfelt gratitude to God, for without His mercy & great love to my family and I, I wouldn’t be where I am today...”A DEDICATED CMD DISTRIBUTOR”.
I am Mr. Joel Llavan Solatorio, former Ambulance Driver of Hagonoy, Davao del Sur, under the administration of Former Mayor Jose M. Superales, Sr. One of my responsibilities was to make sure that the ambulance vehicle was in good condition at all times because my skill required speedy driving and the fate of my passengers depended largely on the shortest time we reached the hospital. I loved my work because I was able to help countless patients for 9 long years. However, there were occasions where I felt desperate especially when my passenger succumbed on our way to the hospital. How I always wished I could contribute more on saving their lives. But my role was just as a driver who knew nothing about emergency management. All I had to do was to step on the accelerator pedal down to the floor whenever the relatives demand that I “fly” the ambulance.
Last September 2006, a friend introduced CMD to me. At first, I was in doubt of what my “Bro” declared: that CMD is very helpful in emergency cases. What if the cause of death of the patient was me? Patay!!! So I tried it on myself first. I go for almost 24 hours of work every duty and it is a very exhausting job because often times we end up disappointed for the reason that despite our dedicated efforts to render them our full service, patients often times become helpless in the hospitals due to financial constraints that hinders them to purchase the necessary medicines to be saved. Worst is when the patient expires merely due to financial problems despite the success of taking him to the hospital. Most of my conveyances were cases of heart attacks, strokes and traumatic injuries due to accidents and mostly occurring at night.
I started trying CMD in one of my night trips. Its effectiveness was real! I was wide awake and I felt good in the morning. After a couple of days, we had a patient with heart attack. I rushed immediately to the residence since I was the driver on duty. I found Nanay already lying flat on the floor, semi-conscious and having difficulty in breathing. The relatives were crying and screaming that she be rushed to the hospital immediately.
In my long years of experience, patients of this condition have 50-50 chance of survival. Adding to the woes of survival was the perennial lack of finances. So what I did was to request for a half cup of water and mixed 15 drops of CMD and forced the patient to drink it. I was praying hard and at the same time, I was very nervous since it was the first time that I administered CMD to a critically ill patient. With God’s grace and mercy, Nanay recovered 5-10 minutes after intake of CMD. She was more conscious and so we made her sit on the chair. Her first words were: “What did you give me?” My response was: “Shall I take you to the hospital?” She replied: “Not necessary! If I would have money, I will purchase your product!” I was so joyous that day that I did not charge Nanay anything. That day was the beginning of my being an “albularyo.”
I experience lots of wonderful testimonies as an ambulance driver. We were not merely conveying patients to the hospitals to save lives but touching lives of my sick passengers as well. My belief in CMD gave me enough courage to administer it to my patients prior to transporting them to hospitals. With God’s miraculous help, CMD always treated my indigent patients. CMD is NOT a DRUG but it can relieve symptoms of every diseases. Dr. Linus Pauling, the 2-time Nobel Prize Awardee declares: “You can trace every sickness, every disease & every illness to a mineral deficiency.” This was my working principle. If the mineral deficiency is the cause then correcting the deficiency is the best solution to the sickness or the disease that the patient is suffering from.
Within 5 months, I noticed that my life had changed so much because of CMD. I confronted my wife Meriam that I will resign from my job and focus on sharing CMD to people. I was helping more people and I found a new fulfillment in my life.(TO BE CONTINUED NEXT ISSUE . . .)
