TESTIOMONIALS:Ed from Goodson, MO: I will start this testimonial by giving a little personal history. I am 57 years old and for the last 20 years, I have had allergies that have progressively gotten worse, especially the last three years, to the point I was going in for shots to help relieve the symptoms. I was also about 10 to 15 pounds overweight. If I had to bend over, I would run out of air. I also did not seem to have any energy and could not get enough rest at night. I figured this was just the way it was when you were in your fifties. I was not looking forward to what it would be like in my sixties.

Jessica Price, Orlando, Florida: After a normal pregnancy, it came time for us to schedule a version and induction at 39 weeks. Labor and delivery went wonderful without any complications. On May 9, 2007 at 6:05 p.m. we learned the gender of our newest baby. Congratulations it?s a boy! We were so thrilled. He was 20 ? inches long and 9 lbs. The on-call pediatrician detected a heart murmur right away. By the next day it was gone, and relief overwhelmed me. Our little Travis Drake is the youngest of our four children. We have one girl, Tori Dawn is 5 ? yrs, Toby David is 4 yrs, and Tony Driscoll is 2 yrs.
On Father?s Day, as we were sitting in church I noticed that Travis wasn?t breathing while he was asleep.
