WONDERFUL update from Living Light about the fund for Elaina Love and her young son Dominic who is currently in the process of reversing leukemia at Hippocrates in Florida. You may recall a few days back I posted a message via Living Light calling for donations to help support the lovely Loves during this challenging time and here is a wonderful little update from Living Light:


“Incredibly, within the first 24 hours, we had received over 200 donations ranging from $5 to $250. Since then, the money, love, and prayers have poured in abundantly - we have been overwhelmed with the response. Just today, we received word that a benefactor will pay $2000 of Dominic's medical expenses and financial support is continuing to flow in. At this point, we are happy to report that we are close to raising the entire $20,000 that Elaina estimated she needs to cover their travel to Hippocrates and the services Dominic requires in attempting to save his young life.”

And a little quote from Elaina too, on email, via Living Light:

“Thank you all so very much for your generous contributions to Dominic's healing. My heart is so touched by you all and I am moved to tears daily. It touches me to my soul to know that you all care so much and to know how much we are loved. Dominic told me this morning that he plans on living to be an old man and that he will outlive us all! I loved hearing that. He is the bravest person I know and my personal hero!!!! One of the guests here told me today that he sets a good example for her and the others because he is so willing to do what it takes.
I know your love and prayers are powerful beyond measure. I appreciate your continued love and prayers, and am so grateful to all of you for the part you are playing in Dominic's return to well-being.
With all the love in my heart,
Elaina Love”

Apparently Brian Clement, director of Hippocrates, has also offered a partial scholarship to the Loves to help off-set the fees too :) Dominic still has a lot of healing to work through and all the love, prayers and support being sent their way are SOOOOO appreciated – it warms my heart so immensely too, to know that when one of the raw ‘tribe’ is in a challenging position like this, the raw ‘family’ gathers around to do our best to support them – LOVE it, thank you all SO much for all the yummy flow to the Loves :)

<3, love, LOVE,

Love and Support to Elaina Love...


As some of you may have seen already, the Living Light Culinary School yesterday issued an 'Urgent Request' for support for raw chef Elaina Love. Elaina is a dear raw friend whose young son Dominic was diagnosed with leukemia early this year and recently said to have 1-4 weeks to live, by his doctors. We stayed with the Loves back in the summer and were saddened to see Dominic feeling unwell. He is now at Hippocrates with his mum for a three-week intensive healing session. Living Light issued this request for support for Elaina to help cover the $20,000 fee for Dominic's treatment. Donors can send as little as $5 and anyone who sends in over $20 will also be entered into a draw to win either 2 free tickets to the Living Light Expo next year or a free culinary class at the school. Sweet :)
We sent a donation in yesterday and I wanted to post this info here too, to let anyone else who loves and appreciates Elaina know that this donation system has been set up. If you feel drawn to donate to the fund, you can visit THIS LINK to do so...you may also prefer to purchase some of Elaina's wonderful e-books as a form of support - she has a fantastic Irish Moss recipe e-book HERE for example, plus many other inexpensive, fabulous recipe books: Flavours of China, Nuevo Mexican Foods, Kale Chips, Liver and Gall Bladder Flush, Raw Wedding Cake and more - see all her ebooks HERE and consider this a fabulous way to support Elaina with no 'overheads' and get smthg yummy for yourself at the same time :))) If nothing else, I sincerely hope you'll join us in sending our very strongest healing love vibes to Dominic and Elaina at this time - it is all so appreciated :)))) THANK YOU :))))
