Stem cell Therapy Delhi 2010

In August I am heading back to India for another round of Dr Geeta Shroff's stem cell therapy. This time my aim is to gain more independence from my ball and chain, my ball and chain is my ventilator and tubing thats connected to my neck.

During my first trip to New Delhi i was spending anywhere up to 8 and 12 hours free of the vent, nothing would be better than to increase those times..... Maybe I can think of one or two things!

India is a world of its own, chaos everywhere you look, noise that never stops and smells that bring tears to your eyes. The best way to describe it is being in the middle of an ACDC concert, at the end of a runway whilst on the toilet!

As most people are probably aware the therapy provided by Dr Shroff is not approved by conventional Western medicine! But what is conventional medicine? The journey has to begin somewhere.

If you ever get the opportunity visit India, take the car trip to the Taj Mahal and live life to the edge, the view is way better!

Mental strength




I often get asked how I stay motivated in such a profoundly debilitating state. I cant move a muscle below my neck and I rely on a team of great carers to assist me for every need.

The answer is quite simple, I keep a positive attitude towards life. Now that may sound simple, but humans specialise in complicating life. The way to stay motivated and keep a positive attitude is to focus on where you are going in life, not where you have been or what you have lost.

Eliminate any complaints or winging and become a mental bear trap of strength. There is a famous quote and it goes something like this 'grow some b#%*s', I'll be the first to admit that life's tough but the only way to overcome the challenges and obstacles is to take a spoon full of cement and harden the f%#k up!! Get focused on where you are going and what you want from life. Once you have accepted the fact that things just don't get handed to you on a platter and that you attract into your life what you think (The law of attraction).......then your on the right track.

There is no doubt that attitude is everything and once you have the right attitude, 'everything is possible'!!
