As a writer for EzineArticles, I appreciate how much time I can save by answering questions from friends online suggesting they read a published article to answer that question.
Otherwise, I have to answer those questions repeatedly through endless emails. Actually, I usually keep an email copy of my first response and then include it as part of an ezine article.
For example, you might be interested in three of the email responses that I just sent to online friends with MS (multiple sclerosis) who have asked me how I was recently cured. I’ll include them below and remove friends’ last names and email addresses.
I was also “cured” of having to worry about money … LOL … I’m pretty sure I’ll address questions about that in another ezine article soon.
Since my “healing” involves a spiritual dimension, I have selected this religious and spiritual section for publication.

Hey “Cathy curious”
I doubt most want to believe the “How” circumstances involving my cure … LOL … They don’t even ask. You did, and God will reward you too π
It is probably best to suggest that you visit my website milesbooks.com for a full explanation. However, after MS forced me to reluctantly retire 5 years ago and trying everything in the world (including LDN) to change things, I continued to be more disabled and spent the last eight months confined to my wheelchair. . I had it all BUT given up …
Read my last two “Rascal Blog” posts to see what happened in the last few weeks before my healing, this week. I feel like you will understand, Cathy, what most “Chained souls” can never begin to accept.
Read my new “Earth Angel” section and on “A Rainbow Reminder” for more answers, Cathy. I suspect that you can also be an angel of the earth. After all, you ARE the only MSer who has even asked. Perhaps the same reason that the Lord has told me to stay in the LDN MS support group?
I trust you don’t mind that I’m sending this explanation to some others ~ who haven’t asked me yet. I feel like you would like to know. In fact, I was just told to use this email (without your last name or address) in a new ezine article to shout “I’m cured” to the world. It will take a few days before it is published, reviewed, and comments posted by my “first team” readers, but if you wish, you can also be a reviewer. Let me know, okay?
I think I’ll go over and make another mocha … LOL … There, I’m back! I even stopped in the bathroom to do what, for a year and a half, I had to do sitting … LOL
You can instant message me via Skype (milesbooks) or Yahoo (milesruss2002) just like anyone else who wants to talk to me personally. Hope I can chat with you, “Curious Cathy” π LOL
Regarding future emails, please change my address to Rascal.Miles at gmail.com

Russ, this has been your best article yet! (Article from the ‘A Rainbow Reminder’ series … Earth-Angel Update “Rascal’s Violet St. Martin Story”) Thank you so much for sharing. I read it with a smile on my face about Violet being raised from the dead. I missed the part where you explained how you were cured of your MS. Please let me know as I am very interested to know.
Love for you,
I replied:
Hello my precious
Thanks for the kind words and valid question.
God speaks to me mainly in my head … It is like a quiet whisper and often through Scripture. Twenty years ago, I spent two years doing practically nothing more than studying the Bible. Everyone thought I had lost consciousness … LOL … I would not work and people were very worried about me … I love it Um π But, I had a job! Studying about my Maker! And my wife and three children at that time never missed a meal. Something always happened at the last minute … LOL
The Holy Spirit had “hit” me and I needed to know what had happened. He was so broke that he knew he couldn’t have done anything about it if he wanted to … LOL
God showed me that He could and would meet ALL my needs according to His riches in glory. And he did! I’ve ruined a lot since then. However, He knew me and never left me. Like a harvest, the biblical seeds that I planted at that time have grown. Yes, I have watered them at odd intervals along the way, albeit in moderation … LOL
Now, He has called it harvest time! Am I ever? I’ve been running for the last two days shopping for things in stores and getting ready to plant a garden. Well, actually walking. Like Violet in the article you are referring to, after being in a cold room it can take a while for my body to renew itself from suffering the effects of MS for so long. But, it is coming. I use my cane and even my wheelchair for long distances. All my days are His π You wouldn’t believe all the people and blessings that He has been leading me too!
To answer his question directly, he whispered to me that he no longer had MS. He backed it up with the scripture: “Jesus was wounded for your transgressions, bruised for your injustices, and the punishment for your sins was upon him, and by his wounds you were healed.”
Am I going to argue with HIM? It may not be the sharpest sword on the battlefield, but I’m going to stab when my Master tells me to throw myself! Regardless, it has provided me with an “army of angels” to cover my butt, catch me when I fall, and make sure I don’t hurt anyone else. Well, at least not “His Chosen One”.
My task is to gather a troop of Earth Angels for a liberation mission, ‘A Rainbow Reminder’! And I am! So get on board. I will also help you lose your MS π We will celebrate in Mexico ~ or on a cruise ~ en route through Las Vegas soon, sweet lady π

PS: I am posting this (without your name) as an Earth Angel update
Updated: 5/11/06 5:55 AM
LDN was not absolutely responsible for my recovery. It almost killed me!
I’m glad that LDN helps some people stop the progression and alleviates some symptoms, but it sure wasn’t for me. When I was taking LDN, I became lethargic and my heart rate dropped to between 30 and 40 beats per minute. Within 3 days of stopping LDN, he had returned to 78 to 82 beats per minute.
God was 100% responsible for my MS cure, Joanie. Read my Earth Angel update this morning for a short specific answer π
I guess I’ll post this answer as another update to the “Earth Angel” section to dispel any doubts, (without your last name), MS friend.
