Hi bible teacher,

Don't get too offended, someone out there will read this and take what you are saying seriously......I grew up in a home where my Mom desperatley and slowly changed our diet around......but once you introduce certain foods it is quite hard to give up.....my mother is a vegan, which means no dairy either, unless the occasional nyc food winds up on our laps and then she is eating a bagel......lol, but seriously, My grandmother was a vegan, and just I hope you heed my warning.......if you ever ever ever need surgery since you metioned you drink herbal teas and I am sure you are experimenting with herbs and what not......My grandmother needed surgery on her cataracts.....well anyway, no one told her you cannot eat certain herbs before you are put under, it will cause stroke, or worse heartattack........or death......Well, and now this puts tears in my eyes, my grandmother had surgery in 2004, and she had a stroke and a heart attack, because she was using glinko bilba (however you spell that), you can't use that with anetesia, atleast none in system for 72 hrs......well at 79 she was almost 80, she survived because of the healthy healthy eating habits, but now she is in a nursing home because she is paralized on the left side of her body.....this is such a long story, but just remember what I told you. Keep records with you of the herbs you use, you never know if you can get into car wreck or what not and need immediate surgery, let people know close to you what you are using........I just thought I'd let you know.......Thank you for your words....
