Crowd Funding For Obesity After Thyroid Cancer

After being diagnosed almost twenty years ago, Ms. Edwards decided to perform a case study on obesity and autoimmune diseases, which sometimes develop after having major surgery to have the thyroid removed. Thyroid cancer survivor, DaVida Edwards, is fundraising to create awareness about thyroid issues and the health ailments associated with this type of illness.

As a result she started a fundraising campaign which will provide help to those with obesity and thyroid issues who want to get healthy and stay healthy. Starting with a small garden in her back yard she plans to expand her vegetable garden in order to supply much needed organic meals to families in the community who otherwise may not be able to afford them.

Since her diagnosis Ms. Edwards researched all healthy natural products that don’t include any harmful chemicals or hard to pronounce toxic ingredients. She plans to make those all natural products such as deodorant and shampoo, readily available to the public by launching a new website via this crowd funding campaign.

Visitors to the site will also have the opportunity to apply for grants to help with any obese or thyroid related health issues they may have, for instance, loosing a lot of weight after being obese leaves behind excessive skin that needs to be surgically removed. In the event this procedure is not covered under their medical insurance, people can go to the site helpwiththyroidissues.blogspot.com (just an example) to seek the assistance needed.

After the tragic incident with Mr. Eric Garner, city medical examiners concluded that Garner was killed by neck compression, along with "the compression of his chest and prone positioning during physical restraint by police"; however, contributing factors included bronchial asthma, heart disease, obesity, and hypertensive cardiovascular disease. Obesity is an epidemic.

When asked why she started this fundraiser her response was, “I’m a Philadelphian and studies have shown that Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, which is home to more than 1.5 million residents, is tackling obesity throughout the community. Approximately 67.9% of adults in the city and approximately 41% of youth aged 6-17 are overweight or obese. Additionally, nearly 70% of youth in North Philadelphia, the majority of whom are black or Hispanic, are overweight or obese, which is nearly double the obesity and overweight rate for youth in the United States. Fruit and vegetable consumption is a challenge for residents, with nearly 25% of youth and 30% of adults getting only one serving or less per day. Further, approximately 25% of youth do not get sustained physical activity even once a week.”

Upon being contacted by The Doctor Oz Show in regards her thyroid issues, Ms. Edwards decided to seek support among the medical community from doctors and dieticians who specialize in treating patients with thyroid issues, obesity, arthritis, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, asthma, gum disease, sleep apnea, diabetes, autoimmune diseases, depression and eating disorders. These doctors would then become a part of her efforts to help others with obesity and thyroid issues to not only get healthy, but encourage them to stay healthy as well.

U.S. health care spending has spiraled to $3 trillion this year, a 42 percent jump since 2006 according to CBS News. UnitedHealthcare (UNH), the biggest U.S. health insurer, is taking aim at controlling costs of cancer treatment with a new pilot program that will provide a set sum for a patient's coverage. The program will focus initially on patients with head and neck cancers, although the company said it may eventually expand the pilot test to include other cancers and to start pilots with other large cancer centers in the U.S. Recent studies have also shown American patients and their insurers shelled out $37.2 billion for oncology treatments in 2013. Prices in the U.S. are higher than in Europe, where medications can cost as much as 38 percent lower.

Donate to this campaign and go with Ms. Edwards on her journey to visit Dr. Sircus in Brazil and find out how his all natural treatments work out as she creates a video documentary on her wellness quest showing what remedies she sought out to get healthy and which ones she avoided.

The fundraising goal is $100,000. As she performs her case study on obesity and thyroid cancer and how to possibly prevent or overcome any autoimmune diseases by teaching others what she did to overcome and/or avoid such ailments altogether. Once Ms. Edwards raises enough capital for the video budget she plans to start making journal style videos and documenting her journey.

Also, planned are annual seminars, "Healthy Lifestyle Seminars" to help others find products and services to cope with their medical issues. The website will also make these products and services readily available to consumers.

A portion of the proceeds from her ebooks sales, 90 Day Bible and The Fred Johnson Experience will also be donated to this fundraiser which is appropriately titled, “Help Me Fight Back To Help Others” and upon reaching the $100,000. milestone, 1,000 child safety kits will be donated to underprivileged families with cancer survivors.

Announcing The Fred Johnson Experience Blog

Welcome to The Fred Johnson Experience Blog. On February 25, 2014 a new ebook was released which is going to change the way you think about the Christian lifestyle. All have sinned and fallen short of the grace of God and DaVida Edwards new publication doesn't sugar coat her struggle with God's will for her life in the new publication, "THE FRED JOHNSON EXPERIENCE"  

Based on actual events... This is a scandal is about a Christian girl grows up in a loving home, but when she hits 15 years old, her and her friend, who wasn't really a friend, sneak out of the house and head to a club. Unbeknownst to her it was a male go-go club. Somehow, on the streets of New Jersey, she is left stranded, alone and afraid. During her quest to safely find her way back home it's 2 AM and getting cold. She couldn’t just go back home. Her keys were in her overnight back at her friend’s house. Now what?

Almost twelve (12) years later, after loosing her mother, she grows up and falls in love with a Muslim man. They're together for years and decide to have a baby, but issues arise when she has a bout with cancer and the law. Her steamy relationship with her boyfriend is strained as she struggles with being unequally yoked. 

Warning Against Idolatry

2 Corinthians 6:14 
Do not be unequally yoked with unbelievers [do not make mismated alliances with them or come under a different yoke with them, inconsistent with your faith]. For what partnership have right living and right standing with God with iniquity and lawlessness? Or how can light have fellowship with darkness? 

2 Corinthians 6:13
As a fair exchange--I speak as to my children--open wide your hearts also. 

As a result of DaVida's Christian faith, she began to question her decision to start a family with her dapper successful Muslim boyfriend. Did she make it home safely? Did they have the baby? Did she get married? Is she still friends with her girlfriend? Did Fred Johnson convert back to the Christian faith? What is his side of the story? What will happen next? 

The Fred Johnson Experience is a great tool for anyone: 
  • Who is mourning the loss of a loved one
  • Practicing Islam by comparing and contrasting the Christian lifestyle with the Muslim religion 
  • Who is a Christian married to a Muslim 
  • Including Christian parents that have a son/daughter who may decide to practice Islam due to the influence of a boyfriend or girlfriend 
  • Who is or wants to encourage a converting Muslim or backsliding Christians 
  • Including Muslim men and women who have questions about the Christian lifestyle 
  • Who wants to know how to be Saved through our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ 
Anyone who likes to read a hilarious comedy with heartbreak, plots, and twists, which just so happens to be true, will enjoy reading or listening to this saga from the beginning to the end. If you know Fred A. Johnson, Jr. you may find this adventurous saga to be a real page turner.
