I am Penny Battjes from FL
My background is health science. God gave us a big family with 7 children, and 6 adults in our Adult Foster Care.
I worked on surgery, pediatric, & Geriatric wards. It hurt when patients passed. There must be hope somewhere. Then we bought a nutrition counseling business, and loved teaching people how to be proactive with their health. So you can imagine it felt wonderful turning around their lives toward health, but my health still struggled.
I was tired, dealing with severe headaches, acute nasal & chest congestion for 28 years. I'd miss my grandchildren's birthdays, ballroom classes & dances. I was missing life. I couldn't work in the green house, outside in the yard, around dust & mold even with a mask. I changed my environment removing all fabric, carpeting, adding allergy filters to the furnace system, change to a water bed, Still I was struggling all the time. I had a breathing disorder.
I prayed: "Please God, I believe we're created in your image. I believe this body is a healing machine. I need your help." THAT DAY my prayer was answered in my daughters life as she was praying for a job with heart [another story]. Later, she called me saying, "Mom, you gotta take a look at this!" and came over with a story and a can of hope.
After taking Reliv the first week, I felt a wellness and energy. It was food. I feel LIFE again! The first month on Reliv, I trimmed 10 years of grape & wisteria vines full of dust/mold - no problems. I felt wonderful! So this is how we're supposed to feel. I wasn't tired all the time. Healthy is a lot more fun!!
My 16 years on Reliv has helped me with a serious skin problem, muscle & tendon injuries, & pain with kidney stone surgery. Vision forward: Paul & I dancing in our 90's. That’s easy to imagine now as I'm 76-years young because of Reliv. I've been given a gift of hope and I am so thankful!!
