Broken Bones while Raw

[Guest guest]

Happy Holiday Greetings to all ~

 

My sweetie and I were enjoying a nice hike near Coeur d'Alene on

Veterans' Day when I slipped and broke my ankle and tore some

ligaments. I didn't have pain at the time, and instead experienced

what someone has called " synesthesia " -- I saw a picture of my foot in

a bright sunshine yellow in my mind's eye. Then my foot felt as though

it was asleep. I have experienced virtually no pain.

 

I wasn't able to have the surgery until this past Friday because I

developed " fracture blisters " from the swelling happening faster than

my skin could adapt.

 

Immediately after the surgery, I had some pain which seemed like it

was probably from the incision. That was only until late evening.

Since I have again been pain free. (I now have a plate and six or

seven screws holding my ankle together.)

 

Other than fresh grapefruit juice in the morning, I have been having

green smoothies, occasionally with comfrey and usually without banana

for lunch and dinner.

 

Have you or anyone you know experienced breaking a bone while being

raw? Are my experiences usual? Is pain something that for the most

part disappears when our systems aren't clogged up with toxins?

 

I'm curious to hear all ideas.

 

Thank you.

Annette! I wondered where you had disappeared to. Sorry about the ankle

and yes, what you described fit my shattered wrist to a " t " . I took about 2

pain pills and was out of my cast in 4 weeks less than the doctor predicted.

 

The less pain medication we take the faster we heal. Pain is the signal to

our brain to start doing some healing. People just don't understand that

pain really does have a function.
