    About this ebook

    Type 2 diabetes is a monster causing mayhem and misery wherever it has become established. This monster can be stopped, this monster can be killed. I have experienced the deadly grip of this monster but luckily I managed to escape. I call Type 2 diabetes a monster, but it has also become a major terrorist, crossing international borders with ease. Border controls have been neutralised because the population have been tricked. This monster has found a way of sneaking up on the human race and attacking us. This terrible scourge is attacking you and your family as you read this book. This Terrorist has got so sophisticated, that entire towns have become his (her) agents or allies. Remember Count Dracula, how he was able to trick people to help him. Type two diabetes has learned from Count Dracula. I wrote this book to proclaim the message; firstly that Type 2 Diabetes is well entrenched. Secondly he will not give up without a major fight and thirdly to help turn his agents against him. The information in this book is not new. The information is not rocket science. The way to kill type two diabetes is easy if the correct weapons are used. The key weapon is education. If we all know how; we can become the conquerors of this monster. In another time, a horseman called Paul alerted his country by using a horse as leverage. Paul my namesake proclaimed that a major enemy was coming to attack them. Now in the 21st century another Paul is alerting all the nations that a deadly force has arrived and it is attacking. I am not using a horse as leverage instead I am using a keyboard. If the pen is mightier than the sword as often quoted, then maybe in the 21st century “a computer is a mightier than an army”. Most people are not aware about Type 2 diabetes because this monster has special camouflage rendering it almost invisible. This enemy is in stealth mode like a Klingon bird of prey sneaking up on us to turn our bodies against us. Type 2 diabetes can be like a vampire’s bite slowly turning you into another victim. Once bitten by Type 2 diabetes your blood becomes toxic. The degree of toxicity from the first bite is mild, you probably will not experience any pain. In fact you probably will not notice you have been bitten; but slowly, very very slowly; over time your body gets worse. .As you become worse type 2 diabetes becomes stronger. A strong type 2 diabetes invites his nasty neighbours to gatecrash your life. His nasty neighbours include; depression, itchiness, soreness, neuropathy, foggy brain syndrome, misery, and, loss of money. The major problem for us humans is; “we are not naturally designed to combat the bite of type 2 diabetes”; our immune systems have not been configured to cope with the poison which has been deployed against us. Let me alert you to this danger; let me help you protect your family; Let me help you protect your community. Let me help you “Kill type 2 Diabetes”

    Paul has said that Healing is his soul work. He has been involved with healing most of his life, it is strong in his whakapapa or ancestral lineage, and his maternal great-grandmother Tangimangaone Nawaia was a renowned Healer. He dabbled with pain treatment as a young man, self-teaching himself acupressure to alleviate headaches that used to trouble him in his early twenties. He attended his first Bowtech or Bowen therapy seminar in November 1996, which gave him more healing direction. Later he was appointed as a Bowtech teacher with teaching engagements in both New Zealand and USA. He has been an executive member of NZ Bowen Therapy Inc and is a past president. His work as a Bowen therapist culminated in the first medical trial for Stroke Treatment, and he presented the results at the Bowtech conference at Yale University in June 2006. Paul has two published articles in the Bowen Hands journal. Currently Paul lives in Rotorua where he and his family manage a hostel, Cactus Jack's Backpackers.

      Kill Type 2 Diabetes - Paul G O'Connor

      Preface

      After discovering that I had type two diabetes, I was in a state of shock. I guess the shock was a realisation that I had been foolish. Further, a state of anxiety engulfed me.

      Facing up to a major illness highlights many negative traits that affect how you have lived your life.

      I discovered that the story of type two diabetes could be modelled on Hans Christian Anderson’s The Emperor’s New Clothes.

      A vain Emperor who cares about nothing except wearing and displaying clothes hires two swindlers who promise him the finest, best suit of clothes from a fabric invisible to anyone who is unfit for his position or ‘hopelessly stupid’. The Emperor’s ministers cannot see the clothing themselves, but pretend that they can for fear of appearing unfit for their positions and the Emperor does the same. Finally the swindlers report that the suit is finished, they mime dressing him and the Emperor marches in procession before his subjects. The townsfolk play along with the pretence, not wanting to appear unfit for their positions or stupid. Then a child in the crowd, too young to understand the desirability of keeping up the pretence, blurts out that the Emperor is wearing nothing at all and the cry is taken up by others. The Emperor cringes, suspecting the assertion is true, but continues the procession.

      In this case The Emperor is the nation’s government who funds the Health department. The Emperor’s Ministers are the Health workers who advise the emperor telling him there is no cure. There is no profit in curing any ailment; the money is in treating the disease. The townsfolk who go along with this charade are people who are oblivious to what is happening in the health game. The child who does not understand along with those who support his cry are the minority who have realised that there is a cure but despite their efforts the Emperor ignores them at a cost to himself and to his subjects.

      The swindlers of course are those who supply ineffectual drugs.

      I would like to think that this book will help change attitudes. I learned some time ago that

      "For things to change I must change." I guess this book is my way of atoning for my errors.

      I enjoy educating people and a tool I have found useful to help my students learn is humour and fun. It seems when learners are laughing and having fun they learn better. With that in mind I have tried to use humour throughout in an attempt to educate.

      DISCLAIMER

      The contents of this book are not intended to diagnose any medical condition or disease.

      The contents of this book are not intended to prescribe any possible cure for a disease you may have or think you may have.

      This disclaimer is about covering my butt or if you like saving my ass.

      Life before diagnosis

      When I think back about my life, I guess the habits I learnt as a child were instrumental in forming the basis of how I progressed and continued my life. We continue to learn from our parents, perceived things which are good or bad. This fact establishes hereditary patterns that show relationships to diseases or medical conditions that our forefathers have; later the parent’s symptoms manifest themselves in their children. In other words, parents’ diseases can be passed on to their children.

      I remember breakfast was generally cereal or grain based. I would start by sprinkling at least two teaspoons of white sugar over the breakfast cereal then adding milk to complete the feast. Sugar was thought to be an ally, perhaps even a friend after all; plain cereals are not tempting to a child when the sugar bowl is within easy reach. We were encouraged to consume cereals mainly because they, along with sugar, were cheap and provided lots of energy with regards to cost per gram consumed. I remember my favourite food was Weetbix.(TM) This was a particular favourite of mine for a long time because not only was it comparatively cheap, it was also tasty, and quick to prepare. This quality of quick preparation is an essential key point to any breakfast food. The food manufacturers know that the majority of us like to stay in bed for as long as possible. Each evening, most of us will have stayed up later than we should with the result that we are still tired when we awaken next morning. So in an attempt to play catch up, we compromise personal time with food preparation. Every member of our family played the game in a very self-centred way, doing the bare minimum for their other siblings. That way we tried to maximise our own available personal time before the mad rush to school in order to beat the bell. Weetbix often doubled as a popular after-school snack for me as well, especially as a hungry and growing child in the prime of his health.

      Bread was also considered another staple food usually consumed at least three times every day, at breakfast time as toast with butter. To flavour the toast, either we used to add apricot jam which my mother made in large quantities, or Vegemite which I thought was yum if spread sparingly. My consumption of bread continued in the form of sandwiches for my lunch. Bread was always on hand even at our evening meal to help fill the hunger gap. The appeal of bread lies in its cost, convenience, and of course its versatility as a good mixer. The flavour can so easily be changed with the right mix whether it is plain butter or some mad concoction such as adding peanut butter and jam to it. One of my favourite bread feasts was getting hot, freshly-baked unsliced bread from the bakery. I would then burrow into the loaf by tearing pieces out
