This Is Mico's Story
by Christie D. Gunn
I had an instant love for this little boy the first time I met him. He's got this charm that no one can resist. He's a people person and loves having people around him and enjoys the attention that everyone gives him. And he returns that love and attention back to them. That's what captured my heart.
When Fred and Dillon went sailing, I stayed on shore. I chose to stay and be with Mico. He was being taken care of by his mother's cousin who had been given the responsibility to take care of him until a new nanny could be found. It turned out that no one wanted to take care of Mico because he's got a breathing problem that can sometimes be deadly. They didn't want to be responsible for him if something happened while in their care. I witnessed this problem myself that day on the shore while Mico's mom was giving the art class.
Mico wanted so badly to get on the boat and just play there. I had already spent a lot of time kayaking with him and he just loved it. But he wanted more. Because I was tired and his aunt didn't want to accommodate him, he started crying. It wasn't a hard cry, just wanting to have some fun and being disappointed made him feel so down which provoked him to cry. That cry led him to stop breathing and we started panicking. We didn't know what to do. Mico's aunt was slapping and shaking Mico to get him back to life but he wasn't responding. His eyes went up and it seemed like he was about to die.
So when I saw Mico suffering, that led me to want to help him, with my Power Pendants. But I was hesitant to offer help because I didn't know which pendant to give him that would help solve his breathing problem. I didn't even know what was causing his problem.
The following day, I called his mother and asked her what Mico's breathing problem was called so I could do some research and find out the right stones to use to make a pendant. I told Che, Mico's mother: "I want you to enjoy your son at this age and not have to send him to your mother when you get nervous having him with you." I found out she was afraid to take care of her own son with his condition because she did not know what to do being young and a first time mother. She told me that Mico's condition was called SYNCOPE. From what I researched about this disease, Syncope prevents the child's blood from reaching the brain when he cries and it gets stuck in the lower parts of the body. My assessment was that the best Power Pendant for him was the Shamanic Healer which contains Red Jasper and Mahogany Obsidian. The combination of these two gemstones takes care of any blood related issues.
However, on our next trip up to Tagaytay, all I had with me was the Health & Wealth Power Pendant. I know the green stones in this pendant are for healing any heart related issues. I wasn't sure if this would do something with Mico's blood circulation problem, but I gave it to him anyway. Mico was fascinated with the look of the pendant, wanting to check it out. Even though he was very young at the time, he understood our instructions to keep it on, keep it out of his mouth and to enjoy wearing it. He complied with our wishes eagerly.
One week later, we got a report from his mother that Mico was no longer having severe attacks from SYNCOPE, not as much as he did before. And that in a period of one week, the attack only happened once and it was slowly fading away. And even when he got attacks, they didn't worry because it wasn't as bad as it used to be. He got back to consciousness right away. He was definitely improving!
The first time I met Mico was when his mother invited us to her Art Lessons and Sailing Event at the Taal Volcano Lake near Tagaytay City, Cavite. He was one year old, and I witnessed him have a syncopal seizure.
Mico continues to wear the green pendant up to this day. It turned out he doesn't need the Shamanic Healer Power Pendant as the Health & Wealth pendant helped him resolve his breathing problem.
It inspires me to continue making Power Pendants when I hear good reports from people who wear them. We get lots of testimonials from people from all over the world about my pendants and we are finding the time now to post more of them on our website.
We are living in a beautiful place in the jungle and have started to regain balance in every aspect of our lives. I am able to do more research now and create new Power Pendants for various health conditions. I am doing my best to document as many stories as I can regarding people's experiences with my pendants. My intentions are to help others remember more about crystals and gemstones and to give them hope.
