Aurora was 35, married with 4 young kids under the age of 7 when the doctors diagnosed her vision issue as optic neuritis related to Multiple Sclerosis (MS). They said her sight would never return, and based on the location of 10 lesions on her brain, the incurable, progressive disease would confine her to a wheelchair within five years. Aurora was devastated but soon found herself on a journey with God and forever changed. In this episode Aurora shares:

• The first signs and the shock of seeing 10 lesions on her MRI
• Getting the news from top local physicians
• The turning point from fear and hopelessness to faith in Go
• God leading her on a journey to healing through promptings and people
• An impactful moment from her past would lead her to set the goal of one triathlon (while she still had function)
• Seeing results from holistic and functional medicine providers that she didn't know were possible
• The joy of receiving the call that her MS lesions completely disappeared
• Finding a new love of a sport and completing over 51 triathlons(!)
• Her passion as a triathlete becomes a platform where she could minister to others

"I have come that they might have life, and have it in abundance." -John 10:10 More about Aurora: Through God's guidance, Aurora dove into functional medicine and healing the root cause of where her symptoms were coming from. She has never been on medications for MS, she uses food as her medicine and lifestyle changes have saved her life from one with MS. She healed her body from MS and is healthier now than she was before her diagnosis. After the first year of her lifestyle changes, her vision came back better than before, after being blind for over a month and she became physically active for the first time. She has been racing triathlons for 10 years, has been a sponsored triathlete and has raced over 51 triathlons including Half Ironman distances. Her story has been featured in Shape Magazine, Latina Magazine, Fox News, ABC LA and various TV Shows. She is a graduate of the Institute for Functional Medicine Coaching program, a coach, writer and speaker, and is passionate about sharing her story to give others inspiration and hope and teach them how the body can heal through diet and lifestyle changes. She is currently working in real estate with her husband in California. Disclaimer: While I make every effort to broadcast accurate information (both medical and Biblical), I am still learning. Medicine (holistic and traditional) is a constantly changing science and art. I recommend prayer as well as consulting with multiple physicians when faced with a health crisis. This podcast was created to share one's faith journey, not to prescribe medical treatment.
