Here is an inspiring true story of a brave lady who had so many misfortunes and refuses to surrender to 10 years of pancreatitis and cancer with her determination to use nutritional regimen and the spiritual guidance from God. Her diet is much harder than the Gerson diet for cancer patients. Her name is Judy Sim. She operates the largest clinical laboratory in Manila, Philippines since 1968. Like a cat with 9 lives, among her 9 misfortunes were the following:

(1) Born blind for one year, later nurtured and took good care by her mother to recover her eyesight
(2) At the age of 8, fall from the third floor of a building to the concrete pavement that luckily only injured her knees
(3) 20 years of dysmenorrheal from which the drugs destroyed her thyroid gland at the age of 18
(4) Car accident in 1964 when she was going to graduate school in US with 5% chance of survival in which she went into a coma, and after recovery from the coma had 8 operations from 1964 to 1981 due to many fractured bones
(5) Osteoporosis and osteoarthritis in 1995
(6) Two attacks by pancreatitis that led to all kinds of problems in adrenal gland, digestion, assimination, colon, heart and lung
(7) In 1995 in San Francisco when getting off a bus almost got killed by an entangled strap around her neck attached to the moving bus
(8) By mistake, drank a highly corrosive 50% hydrogen peroxide solution
(9) In March of 2005 her entire digestive system stopped functioning possibly due to the residues of pesticides and other chemicals on the foods she ingested for many months


Testimony of Ms Judy Sim
November, 2005, Manila, Philippines

Before I start my testimony I would like to thank and praise the Lord our God for my food, health, friends, and freedom to worship. He has forgiven all my sins past, present and future. He has brought healing to almost all my sicknesses. I will never forget (morning or evening) to all my brothers and sisters. My testimony is divided into the following two parts

Part #1 Testimony

I was born in a Buddhist family. I practiced Buddhist rituals this was so that I could please my mother although I did not believe in any of it. I also attended Stephens High School and joined every Sunday Church Services. I practiced Christian rituals but I did not believe in any of it as well. I went to University of Santo Thomas for college and became a Catholic, but not to the extent of being devoted follower. It was on December 2004 where Sister Felisa Chua of Parkway Love Fellowship invited me to attend the December fellowship that started my revival to Christianity.

I would like to thank the following people who helped transform me to becoming a happy peaceful and blessed Christian.

(1) Rev. Jeremiah Cheung - He changed my life tremendously, his sermons touched me every Sunday. I can feel the presence of our Mighty Lord upon me. He prayed for me and gave me inspiration.

(2) Sister Rose Go of Makati Gospel Church - Evergreen Fellowship who shared her care and love by picking me up to attend MGC every Wednesday morning. She has also helped in making and maturing my Christian faith. She has always provided encouragement and guidance.

(3) Sister Felisa Chua - My mentor, bosom buddy, friend, cumadre, and kinderclassmate. For 41 years I did not attend church services except during my schooling at St. Stephen High School. Despite attending church services at my high school I still did not know who God was.

(4) The last person I would like to thank, but not the least, is my older brother Philip. For the past two years he help save my life. Expressing his love and care to his dear sister! There is nothing I can do to repay all that he has done for me. During the time of my pancreatitis problems and other previously said hardships, he was there for me, every step of the way!

I used to live without faith but now I am filled with the Holy Spirit! I have been diagnosed with multiple diseases for more than 10 years now. If it were not for Sister Felisa I would be lost. She guided, instructed, advised, taught, and prayed for me through 57 years! She has never failed to help anyone, not only me. Now I can prove to the whole world that God has given me love and strength. He has given me more than 10 years lives! Without God's mighty power I would not be here today to tell you my testimony. Let us praise and thank our Lord. This is my story but I can't go into much detail since we are time-constrained.

I was born blind for one year, but with my mother's love, she nurtured me to having two functional eyes. It reminds me of the hymn "God's Amazing Grace". I was once lost but now I am found. I was once blind but now I see. I was once lame but now I walk.

I have had several misfortunes throughout my life. Let me explain my hardships and misfortunes. At age 8 I fell from the third floor of a building to the concrete pavement with injuries on my knees. Then I had 20 years of severe dysmenorrheal for which I needed lots of antispasmodic, analgesic and morphine to allay my pain. My monthly pain lasted from 3 to 4 days, sometimes up to 7 days, the drugs destroyed my thyroid glands at age 18.

In 1964 I got into a serious car accident in the United States with 5% survival rate. I went into a coma, I had physical pains beyond words! I had to use a walker, wheelchair and was fitted with a body cast. I had a fractured right clavicle (shoulder) and fractured Thoracic Vertebrae (back side of my body) from that accident. I had eight operations from 1964 to 1981. But these things have not kept me from playing bowling ever since! Praise the Lord for giving me the determination and strength!

In 1995 I got osteoporosis and osteoarthritis. I could not walk for many months. Doctors here and abroad prescribed steroids, aspirins, and surgery. They also instructed that I be pushed around in a wheelchair. I refused all their medications and instructions. I bought and read more than 100 books on alternative medicines and started treating myself with prayers, veggie and fruit diets, stress reduction techniques, herbs, juices, exercises, and detoxification procedures. So far I got by.

But the worst came in 2003 with a second attack of pancreatitis. I lost 30 pounds. It left me at the brink of death. The attack resulted with me having adrenal, digestion, assimination colon, and heart and lung problems. I refused again all kinds of prescribed medicines. I followed the same treatments I disciplined myself to following the time I had osteoporosis.

My younger brother passed away at age 45 with the same pancreatitis attack 20 years ago. We were only two years apart in age. He was confined at Metro Hospital. If it were not for God's magnificent power I would not be alive to tell you my story. Thanks be to God!

In 1995 during my stay in San Francisco God again showed how much He cared for me. While I was getting off a bus during rush hour the bus driver accidentally closed the door on my bag. My purse's strap was somehow entangled around my neck. What came worst was that the bus went on speeding past its stop, unknowing to the driver I was entangled outside. Clinging to dear life I had to keep up with the bus's speed to prevent myself from choking to death. Thank God, a passenger noticed me outside and stopped the bus!

In 2000, I attended tha YMCA Manila Asian Conference held in Hong Kong. The meeting was held in the Convention Hall. That night I was the last to leave the conference. I had a lot of stuff to carry home with me that night. As I was crossing the street to my hotel, I accidentally dropped my materials on the road. As I was picking up my stuff I realized I was in the middle of the road! There were cars waiting for me to pick up my things and cross over! God was with me and my foolishness that night.

In September 2004, my maid, by mistake put a very corrosive and poisonous concentrated hydrogen peroxide solution beside my coconut juice. This solution was used to clean wounds and cuts. That night after coming home I inadvertently drank a little of the solution, thinking it was my coconut juice. All of a sudden bubbles started coming out of my mouth!

I immediately asked the maid what I drank. She told me it must have been the solution. I knew I was in trouble, so I decided to drink a liter of alkaline water till I threw up six times and discharged four times. I was later confined in Makati Medical Center for three days to clean all the toxins from my system.

God has continued to show His love and care for me through these life-saving miracles. I just cannot stop thanking Him for I know God wants me to be healed. All power is in Him for me to regain my health. I must go on serving Him.

I want to be a good Christian, to follow Sister Felisa's footsteps, to be humble, thoughtful, respectful and helpful. Right now I can feel God's presence. I am committed to do good deeds to become a true Christian in order to strengthen my faith and belief in God's love for me.

I have accepted God as my Savior and my Master. I have accepted His gift of eternal life. He makes me the kind of person He wants me to be. Thank you Lord for entering into my life! You have given me eternal life. I confess I am a sinner Lord. You have died on the cross to pay for all my sins Lord I thank you for that. People, God gave me many chances to come back to Him. Despite all that I ignored Him many times.

It was in 2003 that God gave me the biggest trial to wake up to worship Him. Praise Him to spread His gospel, to do good deeds and to help the poor, elderly, sickly and needly.

My final word for everyone here is if you have the Lord what more do you want?

Since that December my first Parkway Love Fellowship, I gained wisdom, became God's friend, live safely, became the most blessed person, I have a long life beyond my expectation. I feel the presence of our Lord. He hears my prayers. I consider my life now a perfect and blessed one.

My health is being restored steadily. I know I will be very healthy and will be as strong as a bull, so I can serve God well.

Let us all praise our Lord God, Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit to the highest glories. I love God. My Lord Jesus Christ, I thank you now for the gift of salvation and by faith, I thank you for the gift of healing and I will give thanks to Him forever. Amen.

Part #2 Testimony

Analyzing who did my testimony, I am puzzled too. It has been several months since the time Sister Felisa Chua, Sister Rose Go and several other sisters at Evergreen Fellowship of Makati Gospel Church requested me to do a testimonial.

I started with both fellowships for around 6 months. Now having to do a testimony became a stress, a problem, an assignment and a burden for me. It had been bothering me ever since . Some nights I can't sleep well because I keep on thinking about what to do share. Then Sister Felisa gave me an ultimatum. "You have to do it on your birthday June 2005, without fail, no excuse", she uttered in one of the fellowship nights.

Then on the last week of May 2005, one afternoon as I was resting after lunch, it seemed someone was talking to me and dragging my two feet to my writing table. Like a robot I got some papers out and a pen. Very serenely and peacefully I sat down and started writing non-stop. It seemed so easy and quick. In 10 to 15 minutes it was all done. I know it is God's miraculous grace to signify that it is time for me to serve Him well.

Before I end my testimony part 2, God, is the most powerful one. He did the greatest miracle for my pancreas. For more than 10 years my cancer markers have been always present in my urine and blood, but God never allowed it to turn into a malignant tumor.

I never went to chemo, radiation, surgery, or took any anticancer prescription medicine which all doctors suggested for me to undergo. I honestly don't know how I could have written this testimony all in a short time without interruptions and without any problems or hardships.

Thank you Lord. I can see the truth in my God my Lord being so kind to me. Now I know why -- because He sent His Holy Spirit to assist me to pen this testimony.

Without God how can I go on with my life? I honestly didn't know how to pray to Him and ask for help to write this testimony, it just happened. Thank you Thank you Lord. You have opened my eyes and my heart to accept you as my Savior. I am praising the Lord for His love and care for me, and believe there is only one God and with God everything is possible! AMEN.

Update of Testimony of Ms Judy Sim
January, 2006, Manila, Philippines

Around March of 2005 I experienced the worst of my life, my digestive system was not working at all. I would move my bowel within 10 to 15 minutes with all the vegetables, fruits, and supplements undigested in its original form and color. I was eating at salad bar 3 times weekly from June of 2004 to March of 2005. It must have been the pesticides, insecticides or other chemicals in the foods that I ingested that caused my system to fail again. My weight went down to 70 pounds.

Thanks to another 3 persons who saved my life again. They were the following:
(1) Sister Grace Ong of Makati Gospel Church who supplied me clean liquid Tibetian kefir grain acidophilus yogurt that facilitated my smooth bowel movement every morning which I had never experienced for many many years without the aid of laxatives, enemas, exercise, massaging of tummy, and lots of fibers.
(2) Bishop Father Howard May who invented the amazing biozapper instrument which electrocutes parasides, bacteria, viruses, cancer cells, etc. and minimized the physical pains that I suffered for more than 10 years. It also gave me a lot of energy too.
(3) Dra. Rashimi Singh of Rakendra Center who was like a mother to me. She healed, loved and cared for me not as a dying patient but as a daughter 10 years her senior. She did Reiki Healing aside from Ayuveda procedures whic I am still under going. She supervised my diet without prescription drugs or supplements, taught me to use ozonator to remove pesticides and other chemicals from vegetables, fruits and water, and to use negative ion generator for my bedroom.

I made myself busy to forget all pains, to make myself to be happy with peace of mind which I have attained now. I have been doing meditation, qigong, exercise; joining several religious organizations; helping medical and dental mission for the disabled and abandoned children; doing hospital's outreach program for the poor; giving inspirational talk to the terminally ill cancer patients.
