Andrea,

I've listened to WGNR in Indiana for 9 years and am familiar with your story, but because of my work schedule do not regularly hear Chris' show. Over the last 18 months or so I have lost 80 pounds (I've been at goal for about 8 months). Since then, on the same weekend we unexpectedly lost my mother to advanced liver cancer, I discovered extreme weight loss combined with stress can cause gallstones. Over the last 18 months, and most aggressively since the tragic loss in June, I've become very aware of the toxins we consume, breathe, and immerse ourselves in that put our digestive systems in critical danger. I've been slowly trying to detoxify my life in hopes of being able to keep my gallbladder and today heard you on your weekly Toxic Tuesday show. I was thrilled that a familiar Christian voice was now so involved in a natural lifestyle. I just wanted to pop in and tell you your website is one of the most comprehensive and helpful I have run across in my research and planning. THANK YOU for this wonderful tool and all of the work you put into it.

Best Regards,
Angela
