Dear Family of Light (Friends,
Clients, Students, etc.):
It has been a long time since
I’ve posted a message on my blog. My car
was rear ended back in February, the 14th late day. Unfortunately, I have not been working since
the day of my car accident and the injuries I sustained created a re-occurrence
of severe pain in my neck and back along with new additional injuries to the
discs in my back and a concussion.
Fortunately, I had not been to a medical doctor in ten years, nor have I
had insurance for just as long; I’ve been healthy. It has been really difficult in getting help
for me since the day of the accident—without insurance or having money to pay
upfront most doctors would not see me or treat me. Yes, it was the other person’s fault and no
their insurance company refuses to pay until I am “done treating”.
As most of you know my story, when I
was 28 I was told I would have to endure chronic pain in my neck and back among
other ailments for the rest of my life.
At that point, I chose to defy the doctors by leaving traditional
medicine, leaving my work and learning energy healing and exploring alternative
healing. My whole world changed: all chronic conditions were healed, and I
remained pain free for several years.
The last several years I performed many activities that I would not be
able to do if I was still in pain. I actually shoveled snow during our record
blizzard the week before my car accident, first time in 20 years, and I had no
pain. That is testament to the healing
that I have done on me in the past.
I didn’t get proper care until early April; so
needless to say, I had still been in acute pain and trauma since February. Thankfully my attorney has been able to get
me in to see good doctors, who are willing to wait to be paid. It has been not
only taxing physically on me, but emotionally, mentally and financially as
well.
Being in pain is not who I am
or a new way of life for me, it is
simply a sign that I still need to take time to heal and do whatever it takes
to make my body physically ready to live life fully once again. I wish to extend my apologies to those of
you, who may have reached out to me and have not gotten a response, but I have
been away from my phone and computer; it is simply that I am doing what my body
needs for repair. In addition, my body
is not used to taking medication; therefore, causing terrible side
effects. I do believe a full recovery
will happen with great care and healing that is necessary over the long term.
I am deeply grateful to those of you
who have helped me with your generosity of time and money. I thank you for the many miracles that
spirit is shining down upon me through all of you. While I know that there is recovery still
ahead of me, I feel your love and support and it gives me hope that all will be
well. While this accident on the surface
looks horrific and a tragedy for me—please believe me when I say, there are
many beautiful gifts that are coming out of this accident for me, and they can
only get better. Many lessons have come out of this as well as new
opportunities for me to help advocate for others that struggle to get proper
care. Please bear with me as I begin to
get back into the groove of things! (Keep watching my posts--I have some new insights/discoveries to share.)
I thank you for taking the time to
read my words.
Love and Blessings. EstaRa (April)

assist me during this time as all my money has been depleted and I do not have
a direct return date back to work. In
