Congratulations on 50 years of good health and living eating vegan! That is fantastic! My philosophy is very similar to yours–I do very much believe food is medicine, and learned that along the way, I guess, the hard way, not having anyone show me that per se when I was young. You are very lucky. And yes, sadly, it seems the further away from most doctors I stay, the better! 🙂 Eating vegan has changed me slowly and profoundly, from the inside out. I like that very much. Romeo is not a Saluki, he is a Silken Windhound, and a rather “famous” one in those circles. I am very lucky he came to be with me. Thank you so much for your warm and kind words!

in good health, always,

cynthia

a lovely article filled with hope for everyone. and i thank you.

so, you have been a VEGAN for eight years now. any comments you are willing to share?

this past december i entered my fiftieth year of veganopia…unlike your self, i really cannot say there have been many/any health changes because i began eating/living a vegan lifestyle so young; i can say my ‘philosophy’ has always been to stay as far away from doctors as possible – i use natural remedies, like food, which is the true medicine. cannot say i have had any surgeries nor do i stock any aspirin, pain killers, etc. in my home. so, in conclusion one could claim an attitude of health by eating a plant-based diet.

i could go on and on and on…however, i just wanted to pop in and wish you continuing success climbing the ladder to health, an ongoing endeavor for us all.

is romeo a saluki?

again, thank you for the stories and the adventures.

Anyhow, happy belated birthday, and thanks for sharing your gorgeous pictures! Rainbow aside, I especially love the one of you and Romeo examining the ebbing wave together. So fun!
