The purpose of this website and Danielle’s work is to inspire others to overcome their fears and learn to trust.

Today I was reminded of that by a email that perhaps was hard to look at and as I did some soul searching, I was reminded that healing is the ultimate outcome and I wish that for us all.

We are all in this journey together and as much as we would like to help others to get to their place of freedom so they can experience a greater sense of love and happiness, we do not have all the answers and are still seeking to
find them on our journey.

I know Danielle and I have inspired many of you to overcome some fears in your journey and we love you all for your courage. Danielle and I are making new leaps in our own journey now.

Love to all and we will see you on the trails.
Marianne

I hear hoofs pounding
I feel the earth sounding

I grab a hold as good as I can
I gave a good kick and off we ran.

Horse hair
Horse care
Life without horses
You wouldn’t DARE!

Bees and trees
What are these?
A gift God gave to thee.

Swimming,
Flying,
Living,
Dying,
Waving,
Crying,
All so ELECTRIFYING.

Live your dreams
I want to hear em.
Please don’t ever fear em.

You have the reins, so do what you please.
You have the reins so give a little squeeze.

I love my horses from hoof to head.
From head to hoof and tail to mane.

I love my horses as I have said,
From head to hoof and back again.

by Danielle Herb  – age 12

The quote below by Albert Einstein reminds me of a resent statement by a great humbled hero living today, Dr. Pradeep Chopra, whose care and love for our youth should not go unrecognized.

While Danielle had been screeming in pain for 9 days straight and none of the doctors attending to her could help her, there was one doctor who went beyond the call of duty and listened to the call of this frantic,  frightened and desperate mother’s call for help.

Dr. Pradeep Chopra answered with this quote:

Marianne, Danielle is just as much my daughter as yours and it is my responsibility to help her heal as it is yours.
We must lead by exampe and show these children compassion and love.

Here is Einstein’s quote. Can’t you see the same vein of greatness in both of these men’s words? I do!

WE ARE HERE for the sake of each other–above all for those upon whose smile and well-being our own happiness depends, and also for the countless unknown souls with whose fate we are connected by a bond of sympathy. Many times a day I realize how much my own outer and inner life is built upon the labors of my fellow men, both living and dead, and how earnestly I must exert myself in order to give in return as much as I have received.

-Albert Einstein

Danielle and I have been questioned, interogated, and challenged about the authentisity of Danielle’s symptoms. Many doctors have continued to try to place us in a very vunerable and victimized state as they seem very distrusting and disbelieving.

While the physical symptoms of Danielle’s RSD / CRPS are numerous as the video  shows, including:

swelling

Color changes to blue and red as the nevers are firing

Temperature changes to cold

Skin tone changes

Toe nails are changing

Time after time we see different doctors and they have this picture of what their perception of a RSD patient should be experiencing. First they could not find what was wrong with Danielle’s stomach and then they keep insinuating that her leg is not RSD.

ARE THEY KIDDING?

Danielle would like to tell everyone.. She is not sure what other people are experiencing but she is experiencing these feelings in her body…. and it is not in her head .. although her brain is miss firing and causing the physical symptoms to be REAL.

Intense Burning

Uncontrolable muscle spasms

Muscle Tremors

Shooting shocks of electricity

Too sensative to touch

 It is difficult to deal with chronic and acute pain day in and day out.  It causes real emotional inbalances caused be the chemical changes in the brain. She experiences

Mood Swings

Depression

Anxiety

The quality of her life has changed as well as how it  affects the entire family.  We surround her with love in hopes that she will leap out of pain and have the vigor and spunk for life that she once had.

I want to share a very powerful secret with you. It’s something successful people use in all parts of their lives to achieve positive outcomes at work, at home, and in the many circumstances they face everyday.

It’s a skill anyone can learn—a skill called Adaptive Coherence that I recently learned about from a trusted friend, Kyle Widner, CEO of Wild Divine,

I’m really excited about the potential it has to provide long-lasting stress relief and improve every aspect of your life. Learn more here (absolutely zero cost):

In fact, Adaptive Coherence is probably the least discussed skill of successful people—people whose lives are abundant in many important ways.

If you saw my last email, you know that I’m on a mission to help you live a Happier, more Balanced, and Successful life.

That’s why I’m sharing this video, to show you how to increase the level of Success (and lower the amount of stress) you experience in every part of your life. It’s all here:

As Danielle was released from Brook’s Rehabilitation Hospital and I gathered up all the new equiptment that was going home with us.. I had to take a picture to show you the new reality that we faced. 

It felt to me  like when I gave birth to Danielle and left the hospital with all the baby stuff to take care of her.  I was now entering into a new stage of life and development and we were going home from the hospital now with a truckload  of new STUFF to support her on her journey.  Who would have thought  that one kid would need so much stuff.  HA ! HA! 

My Danny Does 

 Danielle was eagar to see her horses.  When she walked into the round pen with Halo he seemed to sense the difference in her left leg and arm.

Danielle spent time desentizing her arm to the different texture of Halo. It was so amazing how patient and loving he was while she ran her affected arm on his back.

Halo sniffed and smelled Danielle’s arm.

Danielle had a great Day 3 at Brooks Rehabilitation Hospital.

She walked without assistance around the room three rounds.   YEAH !!!!  Danielle

The occupational therapist worked on her shoulder and left arm with heat packs. She was wrapped in a coccoon. She loved it and it seemed to help her swelling and pain.

She also experienced in fludiotherapy. It was corn husks in a machine heated and then blown around by air to help desentsitize her arm.  The pressure was increased by turning up the air to move harder and faster against her skin. She asked for it to be decreased before the end but felt the therapy helped her.

She went down and enjoyed a game of tossing a ball with the other kids here during recreational therapy.

A little laughter is a very healing thing pus spending time with other kids.
