Update on Gustaff’s Health
Beloved Friends,
Good day!!
First, let me extend heartfelt Thanks for your continued prayers, support, and best wishes for my recovery. I am truly grateful.
After many tests, we’ve not determined the cause of my illness. At this point I am turning to alternative medicine for some solutions, more on that on the next update.
Most of the symptoms have improved. I am able to go for walks everyday (30-45 minutes), exercise at the gym three times a week, and spend about 10- 15 minutes on the computer without irritation as was the case before.
I still suffer from total exhaustion and fatigue. Mental concentration is much improved but not to optimal.
As the shortness of this note indicates, I still cannot type as fast as I used to and it takes me longer than usual to do anything from brushing my teeth, taking a bath or helping out.
I am glad for the improvements thus far and pray that I learn, be strong and come out of this a transformed person with a better appreciation for Health.
Additionally there has been tremendous progress in the production of the new CD and Book I had been working with some friends and I am looking forward to sharing those with you very soon, hopefully by the end of the month for the CD and sometime in May for the book.
I am in Florida recovering.
Please do keep me in your prayers and I truly cherish your Loving Support.

PS. For those who did not know I was sick herewith are some of the symptoms I had been under since October 2008
-Muscle weakness, from lower to upper extremities (could hardly walk)
-Skin irritation, rash on my hands
-Fatigue and exhaustion
-Poor Vision, could not read for more than ten minutes without feeling weak
-Coughing, shortness of breath, panic attacks, sleeplessness
-Frequent urination.
-Irregular diarrhea, upset stomach and constipation
- I could not do anything without the assistance of someone e.g. putting on a jacket.
-Holding a cup of tea was a task
-The feeling of loss of sensation of certain parts of my body, especially on the left side.
All these after I was diagnosed of acute bronchitis and took some medication for it.
