When The Doctor Says ‘No’: Chapter 5

When The Doctor Says ‘No’ is basically a narrative of my walk through a health challenge and how the Lord walked me to victory. It is a short read, however the truths, knowledge and wisdom in it will last a lifetime.

When the Doctor says ‘No’: Blogpost 3

Welcome back, …. again.

It’s been such a blessing doing this blogpost series on “When the Doctor says ‘No‘”. Personally, my faith has been further built up (sometimes amidst tears as I remember the faithfulness of God to me, passing through a health challenge myself).

Very quick wrap up now; …….

In part 1, we looked at how medicine helps restore and maintain health. However, I arrived at an illogical conclusion that medicine is limited. The Bible tells us that every grass withers and fades away and man is grass (Isaiah 40:6). I therefore posit that medicine is man-made, is grass and so can fail (sometimes against the best intentions of those who administer it). But Jehovah and His Word can be trusted fully (Proverbs 3:5) . Jesus Christ tells us in Matthew 24:35;

“Heaven and earth will pass away, but My Words will by no means pass away” .

I think it’s wisdom then to be plugged into an immortal life source.

In part 2, we looked at 10 awesomely fundamental knowledge to getting a ‘Yes’ out of a doctor’s ‘No’. I urge you to follow these series sequentially without skipping any. So if you missed part 1 and/or 2, just spare 5-10 minutes to get a good background and then do a detailed study later.

So we have built up our faith going from part 1 to 2 of this blogpost series, but the Bible tells us;

“Thus also faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead.” James 2:17

If you are reading this and thinking; ‘Oh! what ‘works’ again? ‘Did Jesus not do all the work?’ ‘Didn’t the Bible say we were saved by grace and not works?’ or you say; ‘I am incapable of doing any work as am immobile, too weak, etc’.

Imagine if when Jesus got to Lazarus’ grave with all His faith, that He just stood looking at the tomb…..I tell you, dead Lazarus wouldn’t even turn in his grave. Imagine again, that God Almighty (Jehovah) left the earth with all its emptiness and formlessness, I am pretty sure we wouldn’t have the earth we’re living in right now. Jesus Christ had to do some work Himself to save us. Try carrying a 300+ pounds (136Kg) crafted cross! ……..ain’t no joke.

So, we’ll now begin to consider some works we need to do to continue living against odds. I’ll try to summarize them into 10 sub-themes.

  1. Make a paradigm shift. This is the purpose of the 10 fundamental knowledge discussed in part 2. Change your mindset, your outlook on life and change your health and life experience. Put the report of The Lord concerning your health/life, above any other; a doctor, a hireling pastor, relation, etc. His word says we were healed by the stripes of Jesus Christ. Q.E.D.

Think life. Never consider dying an option. Banish every thought about dying as swiftly as it crosses your mind. Do not brood over dying.

I find that when I think that I am strong even if feeling physically weak, strength begins to build up in me. So think like God your Father and call the things that be not as though they were.

2. Put together a Faith Confession and say it regularly: Based on your new understanding of your identity, the will of God for your health, what Christ did for you to stay in health, etc, write down a word-of-God-based faith confession. Resist the temptation to be emotional and write only things that are founded on God’s word.

My confession was something like this;

I Grace Obomanu, I am born of God. Therefore, I am a citizen of Heaven. There is no sickness or disease in Heaven none can stay in my body. My body is the temple of the living God and not a den for sickness. I belong to Jesus Christ. Bought by His precious blood. Healed and saved. The Same spirit that raised Christ from the dead is alive in me and it quickens my mortal body. Resurrection power is alive in me. Jesus Christ lives in me and He is life, so I have the life of God in me. The Lord is my Strength, my Song and my Salvation. I am victorious. I am born of God and I overcome the world including sickness and disease. etc etc

It took me at least 30 minutes daily to read through my faith confession. Many times, I did it more than once a day. And then I would recite Psalm 91 over and over again in addition to reading a few other healing scriptures.

In addition, God may just give you one word that will be an anchor through your challenge. Mine was Psalm 118:14.

The Lord is my Strength and Song, and He has become my Salvation.”

For every feeling of weakness= I drew Strength from The Lord

For every scary symptom= I believed The Lord would save me from it.

And overall, The Lord is my Song (Victory).

Essentially, all I needed to overcome is in The Lord and He already made it available to me.

My role? = Believe and keep moving. This season would pass.

Now, I have to say this; ‘don’t be too weak to say your faith confession because spurs your faith‘. There were times that all I could say was; ‘Father, I call you faithful’, and His faithfulness would carry through the darkest night.

3. Put on the whole armor of God: You may also consider writing this up as a faith confession (with your name in it) and read it out loud daily. Doing this always made me feel like a well-armored soldier 🙂

Mine read something like;

I put on the whole armor of God; The helmet of Salvation; and I declare that I am saved by the sacrifice of Jesus Christ. The Breastplate of righteousness: and I declare that I am the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus. There’s no wrong in me. I have right standing with God my Father. So no accusation against me is valid. I guard my waist with the truth of God’s word: declaring that God’s word is true. I am Healed. I am victorious. I am Strong. I am perfect and complete. I shod my feet with the preparation of the gospel of peace and with the sword of the spirit; I pull down every imagination of darkness condemning every tongue that has risen against me in judgment. And I have my shield of faith in the faithfulness of my Father to deliver.

The armor of God is actually meant to be protective (that you may stand in the day of trouble). But God won’t penalize anyone for putting them on in crisis 🙂

4. Expose Yourself to eternal life: We already established that the word of God is LIFE and it is immutable. So, you do not let a day go by without exposing yourself to this life. Study your bible and listen to good messages on God’s word. For me, I love to study the word directly myself. I open my Bible and expect God to speak to me and He does. He always gave a reassuring word every time. And sometimes, He sent me word through my Pastors. God always sent me a word that kept me going. But to get that word, I needed to expose myself to it.

5. Remember the Lord’s covenant-Break Bread Regularly: Some people have become quite religious about the communion. They believe the communion is sacred and should be administered by only certain persons. Of course the communion is sacred, but Jesus Christ commands us to do it as often as, in remembrance of Him.

“..This cup is the new covenant in My blood. This do as often as you drink it, in remembrance of Me.” 1 Corinthians 11:25

Personally, I remind the Lord about His covenant of health, deliverance, salvation, peace, wealth, fulfillment of purpose and every good thing He has promised me in His word.

Jehovah is careful to keep His covenant.

My covenant I will not break , nor alter the word that has gone out of My lips.” Psalm 89:34

6. Get Moving, Go to church: My Pastor often used to say, ‘if you say you are healed, get off your bed’. And you know, that can be some work of faith…..

You may want to flip that and consider what you get……days, weeks, months, and maybe years (if you are still alive) of lying sick on a bed!

For me, there were 3 important things about going to church;

a. I expose myself again to God’s word. And God always sent a word, halleluyah.

b. I plug myself into life. Meet and relate with the living.

c. I am forced to give someone a smile. Sometimes it may be someone who had no idea about my health challenge that needs help. I make efforts to help and by so doing exert myself.

Again, my Pastor taught me, that the devil tend to isolate brethren going through a health challenge, selling them a lie that they are weak, tired and cannot move. That gives him more time to continue keeping you down. Naaaaa! Get up and get moving in Jesus Christ name!

Now, I recognize that there may be times when getting up and moving may truly be difficult or maybe your body really needs rest. Point here is; take a step every day towards getting yourself off a sick bed. You are not sick, you are healed! Your body is simply challenged, and thank God it’s your body because you are a spirit and you are healed. So move!.

7. Lay hands on your body. The day I got the revelation that I (a spirit) has been saved, healed and made rich, my excitement knew no bounds. I remember we’d just finished evening fellowship and I was practically skipping round my house celebrating this new revelation. So if I am a healed spirit and my body is diseased, I simply lay my hands on my body and command sickness to leave. And did I really do that? Many times! And it did bring some relief all the time.

I recently took advantage of this awesome provision by our Father. One of the strange symptoms I had was difficulty remembering things. Attempts at forcing myself to remember would seem like pushing against a wall. Like a brain block. So few weeks ago, I remembered to use my hands! I laid my hands on my head and declared that my brain works perfectly. It’s amazing how this has worked so well. I no longer feel like my head would burst because I am trying to remember something. Praise God.

8. Identify a Faith/Prayer Support Group and keep in touch: This can be your Pastor, leader, or fellow brethren in Church. The Bible tells us in James 5:14

Is anyone among you sick? Let him call for the elders of the church, and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord.

It’s really encouraging to know that some group of persons are praying for you in your time of challenge.

9. Identify your purpose in life and invest in it: There’s a God-given purpose for everyone. Find it and instead of spending your time crying over your health, get going. Help someone, help a group of persons, start blogging on God’s word, visit a homeless children home, go to work, even if it means explaining to your boss that it is just a step of faith so you are not overloaded or overworked. For me, this step gives you a focus on the future. How then will you die when you are thinking about the future with God and people in the centre of it.

Something I realize about God that encouraged me to take this path. God kept showing me things in my future! In fact, initially I didn’t get it. I was almost furious with Him. I thought; ‘Father just show me things about overcoming this challenge.’ But when I understood what God was saying, which I understood as; ‘I have a plan and a future for you, Grace, you are victorious over this challenge, in fact, this is nothing‘, my hope for the future increased.

10. Modify your lifestyle: Reconsider the impact of your life choices on your health.

a. Rest: I heard God clearly say to me; ‘Grace, I created the world in 6 days and Rested on the 7th!’ 🙂

Recently, I was listening over a discussion and I heard a young single lady planning a restful weekend considering that she’d had a busy week!

Huh? I rarely make such plans! I just keep going. 🙂

Rest is so vital to well-being and it’s an investment everyone should make.

b. Choose healthy habits: Certain habits (alcoholism, smoking, etc) may further compromise your health. Ditch them.

c. Choose healthy diet: I keep telling myself; ‘Grace, your Father recommended a diet regimen for you, switch to it.’ I have not! 🙂 But it’s right there in the Bible;

And The Lord God commanded the man, saying, “of every tree of the garden you may freely eat; ” Genesis 2:16

and out of the ground the Lord God made every tree that is pleasant to the sight and good for food.” Genesis 2:9

“...and vegetation for the service of man, that he may bring forth food from the earth.” Psalms 104:14

…please test your servants for ten days, and let them give us vegetables to eat and water to drink. Then let our appearance be examined before you……..And at the end of ten days their feature appeared better and fatter in flesh than all the young men who ate the portion of the king’s delicacies…” Daniel 1: 12-15

Re-evaluate your preferred diet plan and make a healthy choice always.

d. Clothing: The purpose of clothing is to cover up one’s nakedness. So stay covered and warm. I published an interesting article on God’s idea of clothing, as I understood it. You may wish to read at: http://www.graceobomanu.com/blogsite/?s=fig+leaves

e. Exercise: The Bible tells us bodily exercise profits little (1 Timothy 4:8). It’s probably this ‘little’ that has been shown, medically, to contribute to health and well-being. I think everybody should incorporate some form of exercise into their daily program.

Of course if you’re ill, you may want to talk it over with your doctor before starting. Start little and aim to shift the goalpost (target) with time.

f. Take your Medications if you need to: If you feel you have not built up your faith to the point you can go without prescribed medications, please take them. But do not give up on enjoying God’s best provision of Life and Health for you.

So, here we are!

We have some work to do to enjoy what God has already provided for us. The 10 fundamental knowledge help build up our faith but then we must act based on what we believe; that we are healed.

Keep a date with the concluding part of this blogpost series; “When the Doctor says ‘No’ : Blogpost 4.

Stay healed and blessed. Don’t give up on God because He is counting on you to overcome whatever challenge you are experiencing presently and then become a support for others.

My love always…

When the Doctor Says ‘NO’ : Blog Post 2

Welcome back!

In the first part of this blogpost we looked at how medicine contributes to well-being and also provided examples of situations when a Doctor can say ‘No’, meaning; that the Doctor can’t help with your presenting medical complaints. I also mentioned, very importantly, the only source of LIFE I know that is sure and unfailing…. the Word of God. The Word of God is immutable.

I did say then, that in part 2, we will begin to look at what you MUST DO to get a ‘YES’, if ever a Doctor says ‘No’. But before we get into the doing bit, let us to consider 10 fundamental knowledge to getting a “YES” out of a Doctor’s “NO”.

  1. You Must know that God is.

“.…for whoever comes (near) to God must (necessarily) believe that God exists and that He rewards those who (earnestly and diligently seek Him.” Hebrews 11:6 AMP.

I see in this scripture 2 necessities forgetting a reward/benefit from God (including healing);

(a) To believe that God exists and ;

(b) To seek and follow Him wholeheartedly (not partially).

I have shared in the past how one of my senior colleagues tried to engage me in a fruitless discussion; asking who the God I so passionately profess is? Whether God is male or female? Whether I can see Him? And that I should explain my response of “God is my Father” to an innocent little child!

Believe it or not, there are people who do not believe in the existence of God. And for some others, God means different things (that’s a big lesson I learnt recently and I have more often now, identify my God as “JEHOVAH“).

So there are gods of love, gods of war, gods of the sun etc, and I recently came across ‘Hollywood gods’. If you have any problems identifying with the God described in John 17:3; I am not sure how you can get a ‘Yes’ if and when a doctor gives you a ‘No’.

“…. the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom You have sent.”

Now, after accepting that God exists, next, you need to seek Him earnestly and diligently.

Simply put; do not come seeking help from God with a plan B(in case God fails). Because when you do that, you so very easily fit into the doubter described in James 1: 6a-8;

“…for he who doubts is like a wave of the sea driven and tossed by the wind. For let not that man suppose that he will receive anything from the Lord; he is a double-minded man, unstable in all his ways.”

2. You Must know Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior.

After you recognize the existence of Jehovah, then you must know Him. And the only way to know the Father-JEHOVAH, is to know His Son Jesus Christ.

Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.” John 14:6.

Who is he who overcomes the world, but he who believes that Jesus Christ is the Son of God?” 1 John 5:5

If you need guidance on how to know Jehovah through Jesus Christ, simply copy and paste the url addresses provided below in a new tab to get going. These are my earlier blogposts that would guide you into making a decision for Christ.

(a) http://www.graceobomanu.com/blogsite/dead-man-walking/

(b) http://www.graceobomanu.com/blogsite/could-it-have-been-a-surrogate-birth/

3. You Must know the Word of God.

The Word of God is life.

The words that I speak to you are spirit and they are life.” John 6:63

“For the word of God is living and powerful, sharper than any two-edged sword…” Hebrews 4:12

all things were made through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made. In Him was life …” John 1:3-4

So every time you read the Word of God, you are exposing yourself to life. Meaning that, you cannot be sick, needing healing and not expose yourself to the Word of God. You will die!

4. You Must know your New Identity in Christ Jesus

“For our citizenship is in heaven, from which we also eagerly wait for the Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ. Philippians 3:20

Brethren, our citizenship is of Heaven, where there is no sickness or disease. Therefore any sickness or disease in our bodies is alien and should expect an end of tenancy. Our bodies are temples of the living God. Not a storehouse for all kinds of strange symptoms. Knowing this therefore, we command every visiting symptom to vacate our bodies in the name of Jesus Christ. We are citizens of Heaven. There is no sickness in Heaven and none should stay in our bodies. Amen.

5. You Must know that Sickness and Disease were settled at Calvary

“..who Himself bore our sins in His own body on the tree, that we, having died to sins, might live for righteousness- by whose stripes you were healed.” 1 Peter 2:24

“..that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Isaiah the prophet, saying; He Himself took our infirmities and bore our sicknesses..” Matthew 8:17

Brethren, the only reason Christ bore our sicknesses and infirmities in His own body, is so that we do not have to bear any of them ourselves. Selah.

Therefore we must see every sickness in our bodies as illegal occupants. They have no right to be on our bodies because Jesus Christ took them all on Himself. Halleluyah.

6. You Must know God’s Will concerning your health

Of course from the foregoing, we already know that God wants us Healed. That’s the only reason He would die Himself to get us healed. In John 10:10b, we read why Jesus Christ came;

“…I have come that they may have life and have it more abundantly.”

Beloved, Jesus Christ came to give us life, spiritual life, yes, and physical life too, to its fullness.

God wants us in health and prosperity.

7. You Must know that you were healed at Calvary

God didn’t leave us in a ‘wishlist’. He Willed for us to be healed and He ensured it.

Peter tells us we were healed by the stripes of Jesus Christ. That is the result of Christ bearing our sickness and disease on Himself. He took them away and gave us health. Halleluyah.

8. You Must know that sickness is not from God.

In “Satan demystified” (http://www.graceobomanu.com/blogsite/satan-demystified/), another of my earlier blogposts, I demystify Satan and show him as the source of all evil. Satan is the thief described in John 10:10a

“the thief has come to steal, kill and destroy..”

In fact, John 10:10 gives a beautiful contrast of the person of Satan and Jesus Christ. Satan comes to steal, kill and destroy but Jesus Christ came to give us life and life more abundantly.

As long as you buy the lie that God is trying to subdue you with a sickness or disease, you will not be healed from it.

Pause, have you ever considered, why God would Himself die to take away our sickness and disease, and yet send it back on us to teach us a lesson or subdue us? It doesn’t make any sense. Neither does it make sense that someone would be sick and then seek help from a place where the devil is served and worshiped. That is absolute foolishness. Selah.

God is GOOD and there is no Evil in Him. And everything God made is GOOD.

“..the Lord is upright; He is my rock, and there is no unrighteousness in Him.” Psalm 92:15

“Surely God will never do wickedly, nor will the Almighty pervert justice.” Job 8:20

So Jesus said to him, “why do you call Me good? No one is good but One, that is God.” Mark 10:18

God is GOOD.

9. You Must know that Death has no power over you

I have written in the past how my grandma would often tell us about times Death stood by her door, in fact, many times. And all those times, she rebuked him and he fled 🙂

I watched my mother die about 2 years ago. I was privilege to take care of her in her last days and I learnt a very good lesson doing that; death is a spirit.

The Bible tells us how a godly man should die;

Now as for you, you shall go to your fathers in peace; you shall be buried at a good old age.” Genesis 15:15

“You shall come to the grave at a full age, as a sheaf of grain ripens in its season.” Job 5:26

“…and you shall be gathered to your grave in peace; …” 2 Kings 22:20

Good story my Grandma told us, because she lived a good long life. In fact she started planning her death at least one year before it happened. She told me specifically to avoid expensive and meaningless ceremonies and simply bury her well. My Grandma loved God, although she didn’t even have as much revelations about God as I do know. And she also knew that untimely death was not her part and she resisted it.

10. You Must know that God cannot lie.

So we’ve listed all these beautiful things we need to know. But you see, sometimes, doubt tries to steal our faith. We cannot lose grip of the FAITHFULNESS of God. God cannot lie and God is faithful.

“that by two immutable things in which it is impossible for God to lie, we might have strong consolation,…” Hebrews 6:18

God is not a man that He should lie; neither the son of man that He should repent: hath He said and shall He not do it? or hath He spoken and shall He not make it good?” Numbers 23:19

And also the Strength of Israel will not lie nor repent; for he is not a man that He should repent.” 1 Samuel 15:29

“In hope of eternal life, which God, that cannot lie, promised before the world began.” Titus 1:2

Beloved, God’s Will is for us to be in Health. He didn’t just wish it, He made certain that we have health by dying Himself on the cross, bearing our sicknesses and infirmities in His own body.

These things are TRUE.

We must believe them and hold fast to them irrespective of our present circumstances or state of health. Because God is FAITHFUL and He CANNOT LIE.

If Jesus Christ, many times raised a dead body (after all the systems and organs shut down), He can handle the disease or deadness of any one part of your body or body system, heal it and give life back to it.

Don’t give up on yourself and do not give up on God. God is counting on you NOT to give up. He is expecting you to win this trial of your faith and be strong enough to support another.

When the Doctor says ‘NO’….: Blog Post 1

I have been dropping my thoughts on this blog post for months now in my notepad. During this period, as you can very well imagine, I have many times substituted one blogpost title for another. This; ….”When the Doctor Says No“……fits just fine and I love it!

I will have to split this blogpost into many parts, because there is just so much to write on it and I want you benefiting maximally.

Let me start you up from the beginning…..

I trained as a Medical Doctor, I prescribe drugs to people who need it, I also take medications sometimes, so this blog post is NOT about whether you should go see a doctor or not; take drugs or not; have that surgery or not. No! “When the Doctor Says No”,  aims to show you a source of life that is superior to medicine, that out lives medicine and is immutable.

Medicine is important to human life. Doctors have devoted their lives to saving the lives of others. Doctors help treat illnesses, they help educate the public on preventive care. Ultimately doctors aim to restore or maintain health.  While it is possible that a lot more understanding of the workings of the highly complex human body and its reactions to disease and disease agents is needed, medicine has helped fitted the very complex human body into books that when picked up helps the understanding of functioning of the human body.  But I have personally come to the illogical conclusion that medicine is limited 🙂

For years my body was challenged with strange symptoms and the more I walked from one specialist colleague to another (at home and beyond), the clearer it became that the doctors had no answers for what I was experiencing. Even more annoying, was the tendency of some of them to suggest, that my mind was playing tricks on me as all my test results have come out okay and the medical examinations yielded nothing significant.  One or two of them said to me; ‘go home and rest, there is nothing wrong with you medically’.

Nothing is wrong with me medically?!!!!  How come a walk from my bed to the toilet seemed like a cross-country race? Why is my heart racing almost uncontrollably? Why the terrible feeling of weakness and dizziness? Why has laughter become a luxury to me for fear that my heart would stop beating? Why can’t I complete a sentence on the phone for lack of strength? Why is the ground spinning and shaking under my feet? Why the churn and frequent visits to the loo in one single day? Why can’t I look into my laptop for 10 minutes without feeling sick? Why has sleep become a scarce commodity to me? Why have I been ‘resting’ on my bed for days,….weeks, ……months as advised by the doctor  without feeling any better? Why are the pulsations from my arteries so loud I can hear them with my ears? Why are they throbbing everywhere?  Why do I struggle to breathe sometimes? Why all these strange feelings?

As annoying as the ‘Nothing is wrong with you medically‘ sounded sometimes, they were right; Nothing was wrong with me! And I say nothing is wrong with me Medically, Spiritually, Mentally and otherwise. I am Perfect & Complete. Healed and made Whole. I have the Life of God in me. Jesus Christ; The Life Giving One is alive in Me! Amen!!!

So this was my experience for many months…years. Doctors can indeed say ‘NO’ when they reach the limits of their learnings and practice experience. They can say ‘NO’; when;

  • When the health problem is not specific and does not fit into any medically known disease description.  Doctor genuinely wants to help but does not know exactly what to do as he cannot figure out what the problem is.
  • When the prognosis for your health condition is poor ab initio  and it’s not your making (Doctor thinks you are unlucky/unfortunate, but medicine cannot save you).
  • When you present to the hospital at an advanced stage of an illness with very bad prognosis (Doctor cannot help you now).

Let me just say here, that I don’t know any doctor that would intentionally want to hurt a patient. I have heard of a few unpalatable occurrences, but these are rare. Doctors are trained to save lives, so they would want to do all they can to achieve that.  When they say ‘NO’, then they must have explored all they know to do.

I bring you good news by this blog post; you can say ‘YES’ when the doctor says ‘NO’.  And the ONLY way I know to end up with a YES when a doctor says NO is found in Isaiah 40:8

The grass withers, the flower fades, But the Word of our God stands forever“.

Medicine is man-made, made out of man’s dedicated studies and understanding.

But man himself is grass!!!

“The voice said, “Cry out!” And he said; “What shall I cry?” “All flesh is grass, and all its loveliness is like the flower of the field”      Isaiah 40:6

Medicine has limits! Do not put all your hope on medicine.

I introduce to you the Sure, Settled, Immutable and Unfailing Word of God that Stands Forever.

“Trust in The Lord with All Your Heart and lean not on your own understanding”.    Proverbs 3:5

When the doctors say ‘NO’, I dare you to trust in The Lord with All your heart.

Notice that I haven’t said trust in your Pastor/Bishop/Pope/Spouse. These people will all fail you even against their best intentions. No, let me rephrase that; these people help build up your faith, they may even pray for you, cast out devils and demons, but you’ll learn that in the darkest part of the night, when it seems life is leaving your body, that you cannot chain them to yourself. You have to fight your fight of faith drawing from whatsoever they’ve taught you, and be assured that they are praying for you.

Lean on The Lord completely. Plant Yourself in Him. You SHALL live again. I promise you that.

In “When the Doctor Says ‘NO’ : Blog Post 2, we will begin to look at what we must do to get a ‘Yes’ if the doctor says ‘NO’.
